Good stuff for fans. And probably a good move by Stevie.
I have most of the songs on the original releases and Enchanted and so on. I am also very selective of what I would bother with from that era of Stevie. I adore her but really only savour a certain subcategory of her work. For example "rockers" like Gold and Brain or Enchanted or Violet and Blue make me tired. Much of Bella Donna too. Sorry. I know this is against the mainstream grain among fans. Just an opinion and not meant to criticize the tastes of others. I would have vastly preferred a 24KG2 with fresh takes and new vocals. These re-master/re-releases keep us in the (shaky uneven production and song choices) 80's and likely indicate no new recordings are coming anytime soon. Just my (really minority) view. On with the discussion, enjoy the re-releases. |

A fun story about "Enchanted." I, too, was crazy about the song, and could never understand why it wasn't released as a single. Last summer at lunch, I conveyed this to Paul Fishkin. He said that, at the time, Stevie wanted it as a single instead of "Nightbird." Paul just didn't hear it, and vetoed it down. Now, years later, he loves the song, and thinks they could have moved another million copies had they released it!������ Last edited by Fannymac; 10-04-2016 at 07:57 PM.. |

But most importantly, ZOMG!! This is just the most exciting and amazing and unexpected news. Agreed that there's some thought here in including outtakes that fans have not previously heard. But I also think that Stevie's holding back some songs, given that she has repeatedly expressed a desire to release a second vault album. Regardless, so long the live BD disc is taken from the masters, I'm happy. |

I've been hoping for some time that "Julia" will be recorded for the FM album. If Stevie allows it, Lindsey is capable of producing this to perfection. If done sympathetically, it could rival "Sara" in terms of lush orchestration and beauty. Stevie would really need to work on a pure vocal and Christine, in particular, could really contribute meaningfully to such a production.

I'm excited for these, but bummed we won't get Think About It or Blue Lamp on the live CD. If space on the CD was the issue, then leave off Edge of Seventeen and Gold and Braid, both of which were included on Enchanted. Just so frustrating to almost get them, you know.
With Wild Heart, I'm also disappointed there's not a live recording of I Will Run to You with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers on disc 2. I know they sang it live once. While I'm thrilled to finally get to hear Dial a Number, I'm confused why it's on the Wild Heart. I saw a small article in Rolling Stone in 1988 or 1989 where Stevie said Dial a Number was going to be on the Other Side of the Mirror. Guess she had the demo since Wild Heart. That article also mentioned a song called the Tragedy of One's Own Soul- anyone know anything about this song? I wonder if these rereleases are why Stevie is planning to add Bella Donna and the Wild Heart to her new set list? Makes sense. |

Had I never got Enchanted, I'd never have discovered so many great lesser known stuff, including 'Sleeping Angel', which is now just slightly beating out 'Gypsy' as my very favorite Stevie song. Anyway, as for the Bella Donna photoshoot, I agree, there ought to be everything they can get their hands on for the deluxe set's package, like these: ...plus some or all of the blue lamp photos, some session and some live '81 pictures too. This man demands eye candy!

I don't understand this. Julia AND Sanctuary are left off. There could have been outtakes to include and still have them on 24 Karat Gold. By the way = she has no label now or any commitment to record. I would love bringing these to the new Fleetwood Mac record

Sadly, Stevie's popularity from her solo career just isn't in the same realm of Fleetwood Mac. It makes sense that these (almost $100) Deluxe boxed sets of Rumours, Tusk and Mirage were produced. Fleetwood Mac (as a band) are as iconic these days as The Beatles, Led Zepplin, Queen, Pink Floyd and The Rolling Stones. All those bands have pretty much received the Deluxe treatment with their back catalogs. The label is going to produce them because they know people will buy them. Not just fanatics, but casual fans as well. And ESPECIALLY twenty and thirty-something hipsters who still buy vinyl and physical copies of albums. Extensive boxed sets of Bella Donna and Wild Heart would be incredible. But it doesn't really surprise me that these aren't so extensive. I think we should be happy they're releasing these expanded editions in the first place. I'm really shocked that, at this point, it even happened at all. And I am OVERJOYED! There's a reason it was only performed live one time - it sucked! LOL! |

I am so excited. This is my first post here after lurking for a long time but one thing that makes this news so fun is it proves we have no clue what SN has up her sleeves. Just two days ago we had no idea this bombshell would drop.. a few months ago we had no idea about the tour with the Pretenders. What could be next?! Love it.

This is a small miracle and Stevie has been listening to her fans.
One thing is clear, Stevie is not done with Julia. If she put it on this album she could never say it was unreleased. Expect 24k gold part 2. |
