Stevie Nicks is launching her 24 Karat Gold tour later month, named for her acclaimed 2014 studio album consisting of new recordings of previously unheard compositions. Now, Nicks is looking back once more with two more 24-karat gold Deluxe Editions of her first two solo albums, Bella Donna and The Wild Heart. Both releases arrive from Rhino on November 4, along with remastered, stand-alone editions of the original albums on LP, CD and DD.

1981’s solo debut Bella Donna will be released as a 3-CD set. Produced by Jimmy Iovine, the album yielded such immortal Nicks tracks as “Edge of Seventeen” and two duets: “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around” with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and “Leather and Lace” with Don Henley. Disc Two of the upcoming set has nine previously unreleased cuts (including alternate versions of “Edge of Seventeen,” “Leather and Lace,” and the title song) plus Nicks’ soundtrack performances of “Blue Lamp” from Heavy Metal and “Sleeping Angel” from Fast Times at Ridgemont High. The third disc premieres a 1981 concert featuring selections from Bella Donna alongside Fleetwood Mac favorites “Sara” and “Rhiannon.”

stevie-nicks-the-wild-heartFollowing the 1982 release of Fleetwood Mac’s Mirage (recently reissued across multiple formats by Rhino – read our review here!), Nicks returned to her solo career with 1983’s The Wild Heart. The double-platinum smash is being reissued as a 2-CD set. It included such favorites as “Stand Back,” “Nightbird” and “I Will Run To You,” which reunited the artist with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. The 9-track bonus disc has seven previously unreleased cuts including demos and outtakes, plus the “Stand Back” B-side “Garbo” and Nicks’ recording of “Violet and Blue” from the Against All Odds soundtrack.

“I’ve had so much fun reliving the making of Bella Donna and The Wild Heart while working on the liner notes and listening to all of the alternate versions and demo takes,” Nicks commented in the original press release. “The liner notes are so much more than liner notes. They are like a little novel. I tried to make whoever reads this feel like they were there. I think…I succeeded….”

These two highly-anticipated reissues arrive from Rhino on November 4. In the meantime, Stevie kicks off her 24-Karat Gold tour (on which she’ll be joined by The Pretenders) on October 25 in Phoenix. It wraps December 18 at The Forum in Los Angeles!

Holy crap! how exciting is this? Especially Disc 2 of bonus songs from The Wild Heart.

About time! And finally - it's not a fan-perpetuated prank!

This totally made my day!!! :]

Hopefully it's not too late for them to sneak in "Julia" somewhere... :cool:

I know what is on my Christmas list now. :) Thanks so much for sharing this!!!

About Time!

What?!!! Oh my freaking God! I can't believe this is happening… And coming out in less than a month! "Sorcerer" as a outtake from the "wild heart"? The HBO concert in audio form? Kind of disappointed that they didn't include the whole show… But still, beggars can't be choosers! This is too much! I'm so excited! And finally a studio version of "Golden braid"! I'm dying!

Actually it is the whole show, it's just that it's only the audio.
What I'm disappointed about is the lack of a third live disc for The Wild Heart!

Great news.I seen that article earlier this morning on my Google Stevie news section.

Speechless! :shocked: Stevie is really working with a sense of urgency these days. Good for her.

No. They've omitted "Blue Lamp" and "Think About It", which were also performed that night. :( So it's NOT the whole show.

I'm most curious about the Alternate version of "Sleeping Angel", the unreleased version of "If You Were My Love" (I'm not sure I've heard any complete studio versions from the Bella Donna sessions), "I Sing For The Things" (wondering if it's what we usually call the upbeat RAL outtake?), Alternate version of "SABLE ON BLONDE" (freaking OUT about that one!), "Dial The Number", "Wild Heart" session (by description, seems like that one might be an incomplete take), and UBER curious about "Sorcerer"!!! Could it be the "Streets Of Fire" version with Marilyn? Or the same version with Stevie's lead vocal? Or something completely different altogether???

GAH!!!!! I'm jumping up and down! FINALLY! I never thought we'd ever see something like this! :]:]:]

I'm so glad they finally got around to doing this. The omission of Julia isn't a complete surprise. Stevie probably still plans on doing something with it. I hope she does.

It sort of makes sense that "Sorcerer" was recorded for inclusion on The Wild Heart. Marilyn Martin recording it seems sort of random, unless Stevie tried it and either wasn't satisfied with it, Jimmy Iovine wasn't, or it just didn't fit on the album, and then they decided to let Marilyn record it.

Are this for real? No listing on Amazon or on the official site. This looks awesome but how come we can't even pre-order it yet with less than a month to go?

It's true, I didn't see that.

However I see that they deemed Angel, Leather And Lace, Bella Donna and How Still My Love as "previously unreleased". It seems it's a miscellaneous of various outtakes from different gigs, maybe we're getting something unexpected.
