Linville,
I think Stevie is the one if the best female vocalists ever, and yes, she has been through the ringer, too, which I think makes her more real/relatable. She is my inspiration for trying to kick my Clonazepam addiction. She was so open about how she beat her coke addiction, only to be prescribed C'pam and have to go back to rehab to kick that addiction, and she never thought she needed the drug to begin with.
In the documentary, she opens up about her "secret" relationship with Iovine because he was producing Tom Petty at the same time he was producing Edge of Seventeen. He didn't want to upset Tom. Also, it was his idea to have them record Stop Draggin My Heart around as a duet. It was Tom's song, but he didn't think it would be hit. Jimmy wanted Stevie to sing it because he didn't feel that she had a hit single on her album. The compromise was the duet, snd Tom was never really thrilled about it because Stevie's album was a hit and he felt his album suffered. Just some interesting music history.
