Oh how boring! The whole fun of Rock a Little is how she bellowed, barked, and roared her vocals while whirling like a dervish. I hope she NEVER tries to sing ICW on stage again, modern Stevie with her phlegmy clicking sinus voice would never be able to do it anyway. Best to leave these things as good memories. Let her tell stories instead, she seemed to enjoy it and it doesn't require much effort.

That said, a Rock a Little Redux tour with Mike Campbell (in reality I think the odds of her doing this are zero) would intrigue me simply because for some reason I really love the song Imperial Hotel. I dunno why. She's probably never done it live, but my love of that song would like to see it. Though her voice wouldn't sing it like the RAL version of Stevie, so as you say it's probably best to leave these things in the past. |

because i love Imperial Hotel too it seems to be a very under-appreciated song though i like more of the outtakes than the actual album versions

Love imperial Hotel! I think of it as one of her “crazy, nonsense songs” like Thousand Days and Mabel Normand. Love those too. Almost like run-on sentences. In an interview on the last tour she said something like she did not do Mabel Normand because it is the kind of song that could be ruined if you miss one beat and throw everything else off. I wonder if that is why she has not done Imperial Hotel live too.

Love "Imperial Hotel" and "Sister Honey" from RAL. Also love "Kick It", so I'm fine with Mike Campbell making new songs with Stevie.

And obviously that would lead to some more deep tracks played live, which is really what I'm after.

That said, I do think she will most definitely record a new studio solo album. I think it will be about 50/50 old unreleased demos and new co-written songs, done with Mike Campbell, Dave Stewart or Dave Grohl, or hell, even Waddy Wachtel. Maybe she will title the new release My Mother's Rings after the song by that name. |

She also played "Moonlight" from "IYD," "Crying in the night," from Buckingham Nicks, and played a combo of "The Wild Heart/Bella Donna." I would say she is very big on "Old New Music," and archived music not ever played before "Live," and the crowd response at the 15,000 sold out show at the BB&T Center in Florida was amazing. |

I think she'll record again, and I wouldn't be at all surprised if her next recording is with the "new" Fleetwood Mac. I wouldn't have thought so if it hadn't been mentioned in that Today interview, but evidently the idea has been tossed around.
There's something to be said for a recording artist (especially one as prolific as Stevie) looking back over her oeuvre once she reaches a certain age. I'd certainly love deluxe versions of RAL and OSOTM, and another Songs from the Vault album. Also, I'd love to hear her do I Can't Wait. Or any of those mid-late '80s songs that she hasn't touched in decades. I don't need for them to sound the way they did in 1986. It would be interesting to me to hear them perhaps slightly re-tooled in a way that fits her current vocal range. Last edited by markolas; 05-15-2018 at 04:43 PM.. |

But recording with the "new" FM? No! I do NOT want that. In my opinion, FM should have disbanded once they dismissed Lindsey. They cannot reinvent the band in the sunset of the band. No matter how awesome Mike and Neil are, it's no longer Fleetwood Mac, in my eyes. Combining Mac and Stevie solo tours, I've seen them 36 times. I remember being open about Rick and Billy joining the first time Lindsey left. But it just didn't feel like true FM. I cannot even listen to BTM now. It's stale. But now, they should break up. This will be the first tour I will not buy tickets for. I'd rather wait for the next Nicks solo tour. Buckingham Nicks is essential for me when it comes to Fleetwood Mac. |

I tend to give artists a LOT of leeway to do what they want, and if the rest of the band feels like there's a creative spark with Neil Finn and Mike Campbell, then I'm interested in hearing what they've got, partly out of sheer curiosity. I was not very familiar with Neil Finn or Crowded House (aside from CH's two major hits), but I've listened to their first two albums recently, and I like his voice and I like their music. |

I'm not wild about how her voice sounds nowadays. If it makes everyone else happy, then sure why not. Knock yourself out. But if it's just going to be triggering for her and she's going to be all "no one's going to buy this record because the internet killed the music business" then for her sake no. I probably won't buy it, I'd rather remember her the way she was.
If she writes a book, or launches a line of perfumes or candles, etc then I'd be very happy to support those ventures. |
