Covergirl Nicks, on stands now!

[Nikolaj]

Gosh, i read this forum every day, and haven't seen a thread about this, so i was very pleasantly surprised at Borders today to see that Stevie is on the cover of the June 2007 'Performing Songwriter' magazine (Volume 14, Issue 102).
Of course, this is the same magazine that she shared the cover with Lindsey after ' Say You Will' was released. (Volume 10, Issue 69, May 2003.)
Its a 6 page spread including the photos, and a good interview (though it leaves you wanting more)-- written by Chris Neal.
There's not quite as much typical Rumours-era rehash in the text, and Stevie, as ever, is quotable- most interesting to me is her assertion that she will not record with Fleetwood Mac again unless Christine re-joins, saying that "Absolutely not, not in this lifetime" will she make a new Fleetwood Mac cd without Christine. "Why? We already tried, and it did not work."
The Klonopin rehab gets an angrier than usual spin from Stevie with much more profanity from her in about 4 lines in the article than i may have heard from her, ever! She relays calling her psychiatrist 'you assh*le", a few words later recalls she told him 'You fu*k yourself, you bastard!"
So, it's a nice little read
Truly. She also relays a little info about what she thinks of the 'Rock A Little' and 'Other Side of The Mirror' cds now (favorable, mostly) and well, go pick it up, not every day Stevie Nicks makes a magazine cover. Gosh, i feel 17 again

Also should mention that the pic of Stevie on the cover is the nice side view photo of her in a white hat which is showing up in many newspaper ads for the current tour; there's a full page pic of her on page 54 (in a mauve or rust colored skirt and vest, with "bat wings" and then a handful of smaller pics throughout the article.. I'm pretty sure the 'mauve/rust' pic is used in the cd-dvd of 'Crystal Visions'- but it's down in my car so i can't be sure, but i think so

What does she say about OSOTM?!?!?!?!

[Nikolaj]

Re: TOSOTM--
"Lucky me, I had written the songs for TOSOTM before the Klonopin kicked in. I was very happy with them and still am. I really love that record. Somewhere out on that tour the stuff kicked in and brought me to my knees."

I'm glad to hear she likes TOSOTM so much, because it may still be my favorite solo cd of hers overall. I recall playing it the first time on Memorial Day weekend, in 1989, at a beach party in Rohoboth Beach Delaware with friends and me saying "this is like her solo version of 'Rumours', the songs are so good, one after another!"
My "Rumours" comparison may have been youthful exuberance, but i still think there's a lot of brilliance on that cd (for me, mainly 'Long Way To Go,'
'Ghosts,'- 'Doing The Best That I Can' to name the ones that still stand out for me. And i do have to confess to the guilty pleasure of really loving 'Cry Wolf' even tho many fans have said they can't stand it. Just loved it....

That is awesome

[Nikolaj]

Pardon any spelling errors from me about the Delaware resort, it was my first and only visit there . Maybe its Rahoboth? Rehoboth?
Who cares ...
with no offense meant to citizens of that wacky (fun!) beach community if any exist here on The Ledge.

Thats a breath of fresh air to me...thanks for posting.

She has said that consistently throughout the years, so I believe it. I'm glad she still enjoys it!

What did she say about a new album?

is she serious? i have news for you, stevie -- it's not because you were without christine that the album "didn't work." you had some of the worst promotion and publicity for that album and the label knew they could recoup a lot of the loss from album sales by having the band embark on a year long nostalgia tour of mostly your hits. both singles were buried on the radio and barely got any air time -- if it weren't from both shows on vh1, no one would have known you even recorded a new album -- they would just think you were doing another reunion tour.

Okay, now this is getting a bit ridiculous for Stevie to be acting this way.
On one hand she gushes over being in a "big time fabulous rock and roll band" and on the other hand she won't record another CD without Christine?

Either A: FM is going to have to offer Christine a hell of a lot of money or some other incentive to get her back to record (which might happen considering she made her own CD), but not tour with FM or ...

B: FM just keeps on going without Stevie, but don't see that happening either, well they did once and we all know how that turned out.

Maybe this is why Stevie is supposedly now focusing on a solo CD at the end of this year or maybe in 2008.

Oh, the DRAMA of it all. But I guess that is what makes this band (FM) so interesting.

^^

You have some good points there. I think that's why Lindsey is doing the same by continuing to tour with UTS and then doing a follow-up album for 2008, because he must know that Stevie feels this way. They are both doing their own stuff now, and i say, good for them!

Yep. They should have gone with Interscope.
