Trouble in Shangri-La was finally released. Do you still love/hate this album as much as you did then?

I still enjoy this album a lot. Love Is, I Miss You, TISL, and Planets Of The Universe are my favorite right now.

I LOVE it and always have. I always thought it was Stevie's best work, and was so happy recently to hear her say that it is her masterpiece. (Jim Ladd interview) there so many different sounds to this record. I NEVER get sick of it. :D

Yes!!

I'll tell you what's a lot cooler is your site. You have the top info for Stevie on that site. I mean, can you imagine the official site actually posting the PASSWORDS for ticket-buying for the upcoming Nicks/Henley concerts? You had those up, plus the tourdates & the links to articles & the probabilities & even some photos, in the time it took Nicks Fix to wonder whether to announce it at all.

There's just no comparison ... & there's no explanation for the continuing devotion to that place in some quarters, except perhaps nervous tic or habituation.

Loved it then, love it now. Still play it often. The only songs that I still don't care for are I Miss You and Everyday.

It continues to be my 2nd favorite Stevie album, behind Bella Donna. Quite often, I play Candlebright through Too Far From Texas, then skip to Fall From Grace.

TISL was extremely deserving of the overall very good critical praise it received, and I think it should have been nominated for a Grammy as best album.

That was an extremely crappy year for me personally and enjoying new solo material was one of the very few highlights. Seeing Stevie at the Masonic Auditorium for the KFOG Xmas concert (final TISL show) was another.

I still enjoy it. TISL is one of her best compositions ever. I still don't care for "That Made Me Stronger" and "Love Changes."

The NicksFix doesn't post ticket buying passwords as an effort to thwart scalpers. :thumbsup:

And TISL is still the best Stevie solo album since Bella Donna!!

Definitely. It's been the first Stevie solo I've heard and I instantly loved it. It's my favourite followed by Belladonna. :thumbsup:

Honestly, the first time I heard it I didn't think it was very good. But then I started listening to it more and it's definitely one of my favorites. :)

I love it more.

I liked the entire album upon first listen, but one or two of the songs just didn't "speak" to me. But in the years since the album's release, I've had experiences similar to those spoken of in those few songs... "OOOOOHHHHHH. Now I get it!" :laugh:

"I am something of a dreamer..."

Yes. Yes. Yes.

:nod: :nod: :nod:

Have to say...
 

excluding the TISL Final Mixes & Acetate discs I havent listened to TISL as of late...It is still a good album, Just too "AC" for my taste.

I find it to be more beautiful and more amazing now despite the fact that I loved it so much back when it was released. It truly is my favorite Stevie album. Creatively, she's at her peek with TISL....amazing songs, fine production. To me, she came back with a vengeance on this album. TISL blew me away. It's always going to be tops on my list. Not that I don't find her songs relatable but I feel on this album especially they were. Ahhh...I can't rave enough. Looking forward to some Sorcerer or Fall From Grace in Vegas :nod:

Amen, David. Your site is tremendously thorough, excellently designed and well executed. Your efforts are much appreciated for all the hard work that you do to keep the site up and running.
