Question Everything You Wanted To Know About Stevie Nicks

Does anyone know if this is a good Stevie book....Or is it a waste to read, because it's just information about her with Fleetwood Mac.... I've heard very good about it, I just want to double check.

Thanks

It's just fluff. Good luck finding it, though. Last I saw, it went for $200 on ebay.

Just don't invest in the Wincenstein books. Compared to those this wins the Pulitzer.

I've seen it go for as high as $400 on Ebay and in the private sellers section at Amazon! And I've always wanted to know if anyone has actually read the book too. I'm sorry, but I just don't think any paperback book could possibly be worth that much money no matter how rare it is. I've shelled out some dough in my time for Stevie & FM related things, but for $400, I pretty much want them to show up at my house and have dinner with me!

So, I take it you wouldn't spend over a grand for a meet-and-greet?

Yeah, for a meet and greet, I could totally see myself spending a grand or better. Just not $400 or up for a paperback book! Or $100 for that matter. Come to think of it, $30 would probably be my limit for a rare FM related-book, although I've gone way higher than that on tourbooks. Now if it was a signed, first-edition Hemingway. . . I'd shell out $400 or higher in a second.

Ah, yes, a good deal for his classic "The Old Man and McVie".

I like it because it's got at least some interest, including some quotes from Stevie's friends & the spouses/sig others of those friends. It's also got a couple of good little pictures, including some of Stevie in the fedora that someone gave her onstage at Blossom in July '83.
