Gotta love Dave & others, but esp. Dave for keeping us in the loop with his tweets & pix in
real time, This is a 1st for a Stevie Nicks project! Who needs official press statements when we are getting taunted & teased with tweets from those on the inside. So this got me to wondering, Thus far the sessions on Stevie's new material have been described as:
"sounding EPIC" D.S.
"sounding AMAZING" D.S.
" you won't be disappointed
" D.S
"there are lots of ghosts, vampires on Stevie Nicks' upcoming album, but mostly
stunning songs." D.W.
"powerful & deeply personal. There's blood on these tracks." D.W
"rocks, on a number of levels." D.W.
"WOW. And a good wow too." D.W.
"KILLIN!" R.P
"Grooving and it sounds really good! " R.P
So can this project possibly stand up to this hype? Are we going to have such high expectations that we are sure to be disappointed?? Don't get me wrong I think Stevie has it in her & has yet to make her all time great solo recording. And I am sure I will love what is released no matter what. But it does raise the bar a bit to read these soundbites out of any real context other than exciting adjectives that reverberate in our deaf ears.
