You're right, though. Each side is its own little E.P. which has an arc. And side 4 is even beginning to grow one me. Gasp! Shock! |

I just think she should have spent more time on it. If these songs are so important to her, why crank it out of a factory? They should be an improvement on the demo version and many of these songs are not in my opinion.

The standard version not containing "Twisted" & "Watchchain" seemed less impactful, but still good. Yeah, maybe it's because I know the songs that are missing. But actually, it just felt like an entirely different listening experience without the 2 bonus tracks. I know there's some controversey about the new "Twisted", but, to me, this new version fits perfectly with this set of songs, especially the dark twangy & chugging guitar new arangement & beautiful nuanced vocal. While "Whatchain" is NOT to be missed! She sounds like her 70s groovy self on that track I wasn't a big fan of the demo, but I LOVE this new version, it blows away the demo. In fact, I would say that all the new versions blow away all the demos & outtakes, with the only exception being ATBW -- I think that one is on par with the WH outtake, and that's good! |

Obviously, many of us here have listened to the stream, and we are buying the album, but in general, I think streaming entire albums before release hurts sales.

I think streaming may help. I'm sure a lot of people will like this and buy.

Btw I really like the new version of "Blue Water". I can see why some of you say it lost its original magic, but I really think Stevie's recent voice fits the song better this way - with additional instrumentation and less "magical". We still have the demo and can enjoy it for what it is, but with this stripped down arrangement Stevie's voice would sound a bit too sharp I think - at least over 4 minutes.

I should add: this is the first Stevie solo album where there's a not a single song that I think should've been cut. Which makes me wonder, what were songs 17 (and maybe 18?) that Stevie and Dave originally had planned to record and release? |

Let me clarify. I LOVE the song ("If You We My Love"). I just hate this version. The demo of this song is one of my favorite SN songs in exsistance. The key is just OFF. Too sharp or too augmented. I can't really put my finger on it.

No, The Wild Heart was recorded over the course of a few months. Bella Donna was began in 1979. She worked on that in between sessions of Tusk. Recording went well into 1981.

According to Stevie's interview with Jim Ladd, they recorded all the songs for "Wild Heart" in 12 days...because they had to wait around for all the musician's schedules to coincide. So, like the Nashville sessions earlier this year, they recorded all the tracks for WH in under two weeks, then spent the next few months doing overdubs, much like this last album was recorded.

Find the "Wild Heart" Jim Ladd interview...Stevie specifically states that the record was recorded in 12 DAYS with overdubs done later...But just like "24K" the basic "Wild Heart" tracks were done quickly... |

I believe you. I was going by what they have on Wikipedia. The Wild Heart is a great record. I stand corrected.

Wikipedia the fountain of questionable information...That explains everything...

She didn't spend more time on it because she couldn't spend more time on it. As she's said, she had 3 months total to get the album done and ready for release, before Mac went on tour.
