After weeks and weeks of playing my "Stand Back b/w Garbo" 45 single to death, I finally saw the LP in the store display and I think I actually squealed when I saw it and ran to it. I'm not sure how many 13-year-old boys the employees ever saw squealing over a new Stevie Nicks album. I think the other album I bought that day was The Police Synchronicity, but I think I may have played that once or twice. The Wild Heart was my one true love that entire summer. To this day I can still sing every single line of every song perfectly in the original key. Granted, it's not quite as effortless as it used to be.
I loved the title track so much.. (and still do).. I also have the Garbo/Stand Back single.... Also had If Anyone Falls single... Not sure if I had Nightbird... but I was mad that it never had a video... They played the crap out of it in the Cleveland market...
