The Greatest Stevie Nicks album ever ?
 
Is its TUSK ?....I just thought.. Sara, Sisters Of The Moon, Storms,Beautiful Child, Angel... Is there another album that contains as more wonderful Stevie classics ?... ;)

i think that of the FM albums, Tusk certainly has the most consistently great material. i read a review (many a year ago) that praised stevie's work on the album and the writer basically begged for an all-stevie album.

as for the other albums, there's always one song that's way off IMO (namely IDWTK, WTTRS, Freedom). Mirage holds a candle to Tusk, but there's only three stevie-songs so it doesn't get my vote. i will have to say that SYW could begin to rival Tusk, but it's still too new to me. one day...?

I just have one things to say...

THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MIRROR!!!

diamondsnake 07-19-2005 09:11 PM

And as far as Fleetwood Mac, I would say that SYW is her best material. There is only one song I am not a huge fan of, Silver Girl, but the other nine songs of hers are amazing!!! (Including Not Make Believe which should have been on the album instead of Bleed to Love Her). But something tells me Lindsey wouldn't appprove of Stevie having more songs then he did.

i love SYW, it's definitely tied with Tusk for most-played-in-its-entirety album. as for stevie's work, i love the SYW songs (with the exception of Silver Girl) but like i said, they're still a little too new for me to be ranking some of them with Sara or Sisters.

and i think Wild Heart or TISL whomps TOSOTM any day ;)

Bella Donna - perfection to these ears and NOTHING will ever top that voice as far as I am concerned.

Having said that and much like LB, CM, and FM, I like pretty much all of her work - some more than others.

Hawkeye 07-19-2005 09:23 PM

Her Say You Will songs almost rival her Tusk songs, but thats kind of cheating because there's 9 of them. And then there's the Rumours songs. If I take out IDWTK and replace it with Silver Springs we then have SS, GDW and Dreams which although tired live is still one of her best songs ever. And then if you count Think About It and Planets of the Universe possibly making the album, you got five great songs right there. And then there's Rhiannon, Crystal and Landslide with almost Sorcerer. Those are all stellar but in the end I have to say Tusk still wins for her.

I wish a talented engineer would get hold of the master tracks & redo the album.

Rupert Hine ought to be ashamed of himself.

StevieNicksEO17 07-19-2005 10:23 PM

Her best in Fleetwood Mac is definitely Say You Will. For her solo stuff I think Rock a Little is her best.

if you wanna talk about redoing an album, lets talk about redoing Say You Will.. horrible engineering on that CD..

Stevie's best album is Belladonna. :nod:

catinthedark 07-19-2005 11:11 PM

I just can't even choose. I love then all for different reasons.

It sure is! 10 classics, and I love every one. :nod: Wild Heart didn't get my number one pick because of Gate & Garden. For FM albums...Tusk is pretty good, but adding in Silver Springs and Think About It to the Rumours lineup wins it for me.....those two....with Dreams and Gold Dust Woman and I Don't Want To Know, that's some damn good music there.

darklinensuit 07-20-2005 12:08 AM

The Wild Heart, followed by Bella Donna, followed by Rock A Little.
Of the three, TWH reaches the greatest heights (I just wish it had Garbo instead of B&TB, & you don't need to attack me, I know I'm in the minority). Bella Donna is the most consistent. RAL is just fun & wild.

Enchanted Disc #1 might have my vote if it had The Highwayman instead of OMBTRARS, which I think would fit better on Disc #2. Also, I'd prefer it to have the album version of Blue Denim. And live Edge instead of B&TB. :D

For FM albums, I prefer Stevie's work on Mirage, followed by the White FM Album, followed by Tusk.

I love all of them, but Belladonna and WildHeart are my first faves.

Nightbird17 08-02-2005 07:12 PM

Wild Heart # 1 Stevie album

Tusk #1 for Stevie with the Mac

The best Stevie album ever for sure.

I think the greatest Stevie album ever is Sandinista!

Remember that the names of these albums have two words & three words, respectively --- Bella Donna & The Wild Heart.

Gold Dust Woman is three words.
Stand Back is two words.
You Make Loving Fun does not have an apostrophic ellipsis (Lovin').

Thank you!

nwestohiofan 08-02-2005 09:40 PM

Best album???
 
Tusk & FM Live

BombaySapphire3 08-02-2005 09:46 PM

As far as pristine perfection in production, vocals and song selection Bella Donna handily wins for her solo.Tusk was her artistic high water mark in FM .Later albums like TISL amd TOSOTM would rate higher than they do if they were pared down to ten of the best tracks on each.

Oh this makes me sooo mad. It is the fair way to do it for them both to have nine songs. Stevie probably WANTED it that way.
Bleed to Love Her was on the album for very specific reasons, IMHO...reasons that mean nothing to us. The fact he needed to put the studio version on the album speaks volumes.

Kelly 08-03-2005 05:29 AM

Favorite Stevie album...Wild Heart and Trouble in Shangri La

Favorite Stevie with Mac...Tusk hands down. Then Say You Will. It is a shame Gypsy is on Mirage cause that song is just brilliance but the rest of the album? Meh.

ontheEdgeof17 08-03-2005 07:19 AM

Best Stevie Solo: Do I even have to answer this one? :wavey:


Best w/ FM: Mirage/Tusk/Rumours/Tango/FM/BTM/SYW....I can't decide. :shrug:

Ugh. I like OSOTM, but with turds like Ghosts and Two Kinds of Love, I could never call it one of her greatest.

Out of all of her albums, the best has to be The Wild Heart, imo.

Best Stevie album ever: Bella Donna.

It was all downhill from there.

Hippocampus 08-03-2005 12:22 PM

Bella Donna is the masterpiece for me. 10 great, great songs.

Dark Angel 08-03-2005 12:44 PM

Solo: The Wild Heart
With FM: Tusk

Excuse me while I run to the john to yak. That's the worst piece o' crap she ever released. (with the one exception of "Rooms On Fire")

darklinensuit 08-03-2005 04:11 PM

TWH or BD. For Mac albums her best is Mirage.

CreepingDeath 08-03-2005 05:36 PM

You think it's worse than a lot of the songs on Street Angel?

I'm not sure which Stevie solo album I consider the best at this point. Not too long ago, I would've chosen Bella Donna without a doubt, followed by TISL, but now I'm inclined to say The Wild Heart. I'm starting to wonder why people put Bella Donna above it, except that "Outside the Rain" is my favorite solo song of hers. And then the thing with The Wild Heart is that I don't think "Beauty and the Beast" is one of her best songs, but there are so many other standout tracks on that album for me. So, I don't know.

I suppose her best work with the Mac is on Tusk, though I truly adore all of her Mirage songs.

Most of it is drivel. Each song seems to have it's moment, but the good moments are wrapped in tacky packages.

Oh yeah...definitely. I'll take Street Angel EVERYTIME over TOSOTM. :nod:

BellaDonna93 03-28-2008 08:08 AM

All of her albums both solo and with Fleetwood Mac are the best!!! None is better that the other!
