Come on... Don't Stop, Think About Me, and Hold Me? FM doesn't get better than that!

$tevie says that $he produced Why. After $he taught Bob Weston to play slide guitar, and Christine to play the piano parts.
Okay, I’ll be the contrary Mary and say I feel the songs on ITM blow the 1984 songs away. About 5 of the songs on the self-titled album are strong (and two of them are amazing). But pretty much all of the songs on ITM (excepting Easy Come Easy Go) are excellent.

I never thought she needed Lindsey, even if I love their collaborations. I’m with SteveMacD and Jbrownsjr when I say many of her songs independent of LB’s involvement are bullseyes.

I do agree that Stevie taught Weston everything he knew. She is great that way, a real musician’s musician.
