Well I know that critically (and by Nicks' own estimation) Trouble In Shangri-La *was* considered her best work since Bella Donna. And I think that estimation is largely correct.

People definitely have emotional attachments to The Wild Heart and Rock A Little which are valid. I think in terms of a consistently good album though, it's true that Trouble In Shangri-La was a return to form for Nicks and that's why it was highly rated.

In Your Dreams doesn't mean that assessment was wrong. It just means that Nicks has reached an even better level which meets (and in my opinion *beats*) Bella Donna which is widely considered her one classic album.
