Billy's Are You With Me Baby? is #12 (if I'd listed that far)...I'm hoping that his upcoming album will crack the Top 10...after all, it has a good head start just by including "Oh Well".

I think it's her worst album... by far.

I have the new Billy cd preordered and I can't wait to hear it.

I can think of several Billy discs that I would put way above even Stevie's Bella Donna...

(Chronological Order)
Between Friends
Try Me
Coming Home
Bekka and Billy
Are You With Me Baby

But I'm not biased or anything.

Bella Donna, of course.

After that it went downhill fast. The Wild Heart was good but did not meet the greatness of its predecessor. Rock a Little was awful. The Other Side of the Mirror was bad but was a slight improvement over Rock a Little. Timespace doesn't even count, nor really does Enchanted. Street Angel was okay but mostly forgettable. Trouble in Shangri La was the nail in the coffin of my Stevie fandom.

I just asked what your favorite was, not to bash the work of my idol.

(just picking)

I find it interesting though, as I've read some of your posts regarding Stevie in the past, and that you say here your "Stevie fandom," because I've always gotten the impression you didn't like Stevie at all, but thanks for explaining.

I used to like Stevie, but not anymore.

I used to think she was great. She just doesn't do it for me anymore.

It IS a shame that I'm Not Me wasn't...it's definitely a Top 5 in outside projects of any Fleetwood Mac member.

1) Pink & Black--Rick Vito
2) Out Of The Cradle--Lindsey Buckingham
3) French Kiss--Bob Welch
4) Trouble In Shangri-La--Stevie Nicks

This is news to me about the Visitor ever being released on CD. As far as I know, I'm Not Me has never been released on CD. I have both of these albums on CD, but they're bootlegs.

For those interested, George played 12-string and slide guitar on the track. These former brothers-in-law make a great pair on this track! Of course, how could George Harrison not be a great acompaniment to anyone.

I don't think he'd be so great with, say, Metallica...

It used to strike me as very odd, but he used to show up & sit in with Deep Purple during their shows on a number of occasions in the mid/late '70's. (He & Jon Lord were good friends, I later found out)

Well, personally, I think a great guitarist, such as George, could step up to the challenge of playing with anyone. I know guitarists have different styles of playing, but you could rise to the occasion with, say, Metallica for one song, if you're as talented as George Harrison. One song is all we are talking about here. Of course, this is just my 2 cents worth.
