But everyone accepted that she had had to put something, anything out, with only three months to do it [[June 81, when she signed the RCA deal and September, when she was obliged to hand over the masters and cover art). If she had followed it up with something properly produced, by either Michael Jackson or Quincy Jones, all would have been forgiven. Little did we know, she had decided that the days of a man telling her what to do in the studio were over!
