Thoughts on Crystal Visions CD / DVD

SpyNote · #1 03-27-2007, 02:47 PM

So I think the DVD is FANTASTIC. The commentary is really great. I love seeing this side of Stevie, like I'm chillin' backstage with Stevie in her dressing room or something. Her one-liners and goofy-cute anecdotes ("so if you're not a swan, you're never going to have a long-term relationship"), and flippin the double bird are a riot

I also liked all her hair "secrets"...the extensions, and an explanation for the Street Angel hair.

So Blue Denim is about Lindsey.

I've been playing around on the DVD for the last hour looking for Easter eggs (hidden footage). Nothing yet.

I enjoyed the commentary and the belladonna footage. Not thrilled with the booklet.

to access Easter eggs one has to play a DVD completely start-to-finish to unlock that feature. Hopefully there's something on there somewhere.

i love the dvd, especially the commentary & bella donna footage, i think it is funny what she says about the director dean who did the "everyday" video, seeing as he is selling the crap outa stuff & pics on ebay from this video shoot~

I'd love to add my two cents...unfortunately I live in assholeville and NOT ONE place is carrying this cd

I should have pre-ordered - now I have to wait for mine to arrive from Amazon.

I thought the newer titles like Live from Boston and especially Destiny Rules, like some unaired fighting scenes

, would have SOMETHING.

Was I mistaken in thinking there was an audio interview?

Hmm, maybe they pitched her commentary as an interview in the beginning. Or maybe it's an Easter egg waiting to be discovered!

when speaking of Fleetwood Mac in terms of the DVD world they are still WAY behind the curve - Consider any FM DVD to be the Flintstones Bedrock Mobile of DVD's, and newer DVD's such as Rush's "R30" as the Lambourghini Countach of DVD's (The Easter eggs on Rush's "R30" can only be played if you watch complete segments and/or figure out the hidden menu tricks to activate 'em).

I'm sure a decent FM DVD will be released somewhere around 2184, at the earliest!!!

The press release said there was an audio interview.. Same guy that provided the written comments in the package.

"The DVD component of "CRYSTAL VISIONS" offers 13 Stevie videos with voice-over commentary by Nicks as well as an audio interview by journalist David Wild. Also included on the DVD is a never before seen Stevie Nicks home video which was filmed during the making of the five-times platinum "BELLA DONNA" album. The accompanying booklet will have original Stevie Nicks art work as well as photographs and personal pictures hand-picked by the artist representing a cross section of iconic pictures spanning her entire career".
