I prefer the distinction of Stevie Nicks solo work apart from Stevie's Fleetwood Mac songs. Both are a part of her legacy, yet they are they two parallel worlds. In Fleetwood Mac she is part of a family, and as a solo artist she is an independent.
Given the volume of her work, it would be somewhat unwieldy compromise to encompass both worlds in a compilation. Her Fleetwood Mac songs are infinitely more familiar, circulated and accessible. Her solo work has the integrity to stand on its own, yet a good portion of it is either obscure or unattainable.
I hope she releases more "new" music in the same manner as 24 Karat Gold. However, a new Enchanted-like box set would be welcome, featuring a complete updated iteration of all her stray songs (b-sides, soundtracks etc...), along with select tracks from her three albums since then, as well as rare songs - live, demos and alternate mixes. It could easily be a three disc set, along with a DVD!
