I have to admit I had to listen to it a couple of times before I really started to like it. For Christine I was prepared to make the effort.

On the other hand I have only listened to Stevie's Trouble in Shangri La once because there wasn't enough in it to make me put it on again. For Stevie I wasn't prepared to make the effort.

As for Mick and John I didn't even buy the albums!

I still play ITM although not as much as I used to. I think it's a very honest piece of work and I like it more than her 1984 solo album.

What you said. Cept Stevie lost me earlier, on OSOTM. I LITERALLY(once even a huge fan) played it one time.


Still, imagine ITM's best 5 or 6 songs on SYW! THAT would've been an album I could've really gotten into!
