I started off being a Stevie fan when I saw the video for "Stop Draggin My Heart Around" (albeit a decade or so after its release - since Bella Donna was released the same year I was born). I was already a big fan of Tom Petty, so her association with him was what got me interested.
Then came The Dance and I almost immediately became obsessed with all things Fleetwood Mac - but most especially with Lindsey Buckingham.
Then there was that long stretch of time when there was nothing new from the band or from LB solo, so I started investigating the works of some of the band's associates - Walter Egan, Warren Zevon, John Stewart, etc.
These days my biggest interest is with Billy Burnette and Bekka Bramlett, though I am still very much a fan of Lindsey Buckingham and, of course, people like Walter Egan.
