What is your favorite Stevie Nicks album cover?
 
Since we have the In Your Dreams album cover, its time for a re-evaluation.

I always felt Trouble In Shangri La captured Stevie's iconic look the best. I loved the colors.
Bella Donna though, was a very close second.

I totally agree with TISL, and still vote it number 1, but the In Your Dreams are Wild Heart are great too.

Rock A Little, all the way. :cool:

Although, Soundstage has a great cover as well.

TISL i agree it captured the whole " Stevie vibe ". I really want to love the IRD cover but, the fact that it just doesn't look like her disturbs me :shrug:

No she is giving serious angles on the OSOTM cover!
It captivated me as a gay child!

Trouble In Shangri-La is ethereal and very beautiful, to me.

i love the wild heart ..it's simplicity and the 3 moods ..here i am dramatic ..here i am not waiting here I am not listening'

I vote Rock A Little. It was always something about the whole witchyness of it all I liked plus to me she was so pretty on it and I absolutely love that outfit she has on. But I also like in no particular order, her other album covers

Bella Donna
Wild Heart
TISL
Timespace

Soundstage, her feet were cut off and it ruined the photo so I don't like that picture pose. :distress:

My favorite hands down is Street Angel. That flat matte finish, the soft pink that we've all come to know is Stevie's favorite color. The way it kind of has the look of a Design The Next Stevie CD Cover contest last place entry.

Okay, I'm totally kidding. :lol:

I do love Rock A Little because of it's simplicity, and it's full of motion. You can almost see her spinning, which is such a trademark Stevie move. I remember trying to recreate it on my TRS-80 Radio Shack computer, lovingly hand placing pixel after pixel in perfect 8-bit glory. Of course that entire portrait would be the size of a postage stamp these days if my medium of storage hadn't been a cassette! But I digress.

I always thought the Other Side of the Mirror cover looked too airbrushed. I mean, her face is almost blue. But the back side was absolutely stunning. I always thought the back cover should have been the cover and if so then it would have been my favorite.

OSOTM would totally be my favourite if she didn't have a sheep on her head.

I think Wild Heart may be my favourite album cover. Mainly because of the gorgeous colours used. Bella Donna and TISL are also really classic. I like RAL a lot too.

IYD, if it wasn't for that god-damn bubble thing, would totally be my favourite.

SA is just... a giant pink turd. With blonde hair. Awful cover.

DallasDude 04-15-2011 12:26 PM

Everyone hates on Street Angel, but the cover is the best. All the others are way too over produced and manipulated to draw a reaction. They totally dupe you.

fringed n fab 04-15-2011 12:31 PM

Yeah I didn't like her OSOTM hair either on the cover, even in 1989 when it came out. It looked much better though in the ROF video.

SA, it's pale, it's pink. It's awful.
