Ooh, excellent suggestion, dissention!
I always forget about half.com.

I just wish I could find an original copy of the 'Tusk Doc'... affordably... rather than the copied version I have.

There are several excellent videos out there, that show off the "Stevie of old."

The best two are probably her 1981 solo concert video, titled 'Stevie Nicks In Concert,' and Fleetwood Mac's 1982 video, 'In Concert: Mirage Tour '82.'

'Red Rocks' is also terrific if you want to Stevie full of spastic energy... though that one features some overdubbed vocals, and separetely filmed close-ups, so not everyone enjoys it.

Ahhh, yeah, but even still, she was starting her downhill slide by 1982 (I think)...those pale even in comparison to her performances 2 & 3 years earlier than those. Those 75-78 shows were SO good (where she set the bar for my expectations), everything after that (including the Tusk tour) just couldn't even TOUCH the bar, much less exceed it.

I guess there's no video of those?

Thanks to everyone for the shopping tips :)

She was on fire those first few years, wasn't she!

For me, the definitive version of "Rhiannon" will always be the 'Rosebud' clip from '76.

The first time I saw it was on VH1, during the first couple years of my Stevie & FM fandom, and it spoiled me for every version I've seen since (and the couple I had seen before it).

For just about every other song though... "Dreams," "Landslide," "Gold Dust Woman"... it's actually been a more recent performance that has become my favorite/definitive version.

Thanks for the heads-up!
But if you see it for about $20, let me know! I am broke! :laugh:
