Stevie bridges the gap between the powerful rock singers of the sixtie — Stevie Nicks

"I met Lindsey in high school in San Francisco. We had gone to some party and he was sitting in the middle of this gorgeous living room playing a song. I walked over and stood next to him, and the song was "California Dreaming," and I just started singing with him. And so I just threw in my Michelle Phillips harmony, and he was so beautiful. And then I didnt really see him again until two years later, when he called me and asked me if I wanted to be in his rock n roll band, which I didnt even know existed. And within two or three months we were opening for Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, all the San Francisco bands. Two years later, we packed up and moved to Los Angeles with about 12 demos."

"Is love so fragile, And the heart so hollow, Shatter with words, Impossible to follow, Youre saying Im fragile, I try not to be, I search only, for something I cant see."

"That’s the words: "So I’m back to the velvet underground"—which is a clothing store in downtown San Francisco, where Janis Joplin got her clothes, and Grace Slick from Jefferson Airplane, it was this little hole in the wall, amazing, beautiful stuff—”back to the floor that I love, to a room with some lace and paper flowers, back to the gypsy that I was."

"I phoned Prince out of the blue, hummed a melody, and he listened," … "I hung up, and he came over within the hour. He listened again, and I said, Do you hate it? He said, No, and walked over to the synthesizers that were set up, was absolutely brilliant for about twenty five minutes, and then left. He was so uncanny, so wild, he spoiled me for every band Ive ever had because nobody can exactly re-create—not even with two piano players-what Prince did all by his little self."

"I look around at all the girl singers, and I think theyre all my children... and theyre all going to do this... And, yes, maybe I inspired them because I did get through a lot, and I did have the same problems that theyre going to have. You do have to give up a lot for it."

"I can be. I do not normally try to be. In fact, there have been some reviews—which I’ve loved—that said I didnt try to sell my show on sex, that I sang my show. On the other hand, I know Im cute. I can dance. I dont have a bad figure. I know exactly what I am. Im certainly no great beauty. I know exactly how far I can go."
