I Know My First Name Is Stephen
I just feel like his ego (and Richard's) created a monstrous situation. I couldn't really stomach him after that incident. He took a bad situation and scored with it in the press, when he was in the wrong on several counts. And Richard handled it poorly, as well.
On that score I'd definitely agree, it was a bad combination on several fronts. In the few interviews I've read with Neil, even those from recent years, he does come across as scoring points when he recounts this story. It's very strange how this was all going on, yet Richard arranged his ballad version of 'Breaking Up Is Hard To Do' and they recorded 'Solitaire' the year before. I wonder if there is still any bad blood (pardon the pun) between him and Richard.
