I have hope that she will make another album.. or at least make one with FM.. either way it would make me happy. But until then... I guess I gotta go with the Soundstage cd/dvd. Better than nothin' I guess..

Stevie seems pretty burnt out on the whole studio thing at this point. If Say You Will was really that awful(which I don't think it was)I can understand why she wouldn't want to record with the Mac, but the whole solo thing is totally different. She's not with Lindsey so that should alleviate some drama. And she can do whatever she wants at this point--not like she is hurting financially. I think the big hold-up is that she still thinks that anything she puts out with the Mac or solo is going to be Rumours or Bella Donna. If she can get over the commercial success aspect of a new album I think we would have new music. Who knows? Maybe she will come around......or not. Either way I will still put on my Tusk LP and reminisce fondly on days gone by...

Default New Cd

Just watched the video of her US festival appearance and though she seems a bit out of it - she looks absolutly stunning.
It also reminds me of how amazingly talented she is
Those of you who are slagging her off - remember that she is a Superstat and will record some more amazing music - she just needs time that is all. When her days of touring are over - she will record the most fantastic music and we will all be posting on these message boards about how wonderful she is again!

Stevie has said she wants to do around three or four different projects.....it's just a matter of buckling down and DOING them!!!
As far as radio support goes......it ain't going to happen!!! Radio doesn't support ANYONE over thirty nowadays, and that's even pushing it!

From her various statements, I never got that she was tired of working in the studio. I think it was the fact that with all the time and money invested in making an album, she feels that lower sales/returns don't warrent the effort. Recall that she hasn't had breakout single for a very long time now! I also believe there may be a bit of dismay and frustration about the state of the music business as it is now -- a very different world compared to what she was accustomed to in the 1970s and 80s.

She is a living legend at this point. There is really no reason for her to expect to compete with more contempary artists. She could do so much more on a smaller scale with less expectations.

She has SO MUCH music that she never officially recorded that she could just put them on a CD ...nothing really "new" just unofficially released stuff...we've all heard the songs..plus I'm sure hundreds we haven't heard. "She Still Loves Him" is one of her best songs I feel she has ever written..i can't imagine this in it's final state....and let's face it...Stevie could sing the ABC's and people would buy it.. i know i would. i would rather her NOT do "new" stuff..I'm going out a limb here in this forum...but her voice lacks the range and has become VERY nasaly..TISL???? God the entire record sounds like she had a horrible sinus infection...i listened to that album once and shelfed it...BD, TWH, RAL,TOSOTM, 2 new songs on TS, and SA @ least SOUNDED like Stevie Nicks...TISL sounds like someone i don't even know...don't get me wrong the songs SHE wrote...typical Stevie writing..brilliant..I am only speaking of her singing voice..and another honest thing....(I'm gonna get hate mail) Cheryl Crow did NOTHING for that recording...I'm ready...lay it on me..this is said w/o hostility. I love and respect Stevie beyond words...i just want to stir things up a bit :-)

I don't think you're going to get hate mail about the Sheryl Crow thing at all. A few love letters maybe. Michele

Are you talking about "She Loves Him Still?" The song she added lyrics to Mark Knopfler's melody? If so, we'll never see it.....Mark has made it VERY clear to Stevie that he would sue her if she ever released it. According to him, his instrumentals "are meant to stay instrumentals."
But I agree.....it's one of the most beautiful songs she's ever come up with!

On a TOTALLY different note.....I LOVED TISL.....for me, it's one of Stevie's top two or three albums! And I DID like Sheryl's work on it...would like to see them work together again (after Stevie works with Rick Rubin, Bill Bottrell and/or John Leventhal first, though!!!).

i stand corrected..yes, "She Loves Him Still" is the correct title of the song...BUT U GOTTA give me the scoop on the mark knopfler connection there.. i have never heard this...it's huge.. i just listened to it and it sounds nothing like a mark knopfler melody at all..i'm not saying i don't believe you..it's completely believable it just is blowing me away. can this be found anyewhere in instrumental form from mark? and regarding the tisl thing...i'm glad u liked it....i just prefer her more spacey abstract lyric and song writing..hence the older stuff where she was on another planet just appeals to me more..but to u.. i dedicate "everyday' the best song on the album along w/"I miss you" ...in second place..u know what?? the title song TISL...is also a good one..thanks agian 4 ur input on this..hope u f/u w/the knopfler thing..i'm going to google this right now.

I'm the complete opposite of anything resembling a fan of Sheryl Crow, but Stevie's cover of "It's Only Love" has always been one of the album's high points (and I love the album too).

Uh huh. Just as I suspected: you wuv her.

No, I really like her "Sheryl Crow" album. I don't have Detours but I have the other albums. To tell the truth, her personality gets on my nerves more than her music does. While I'm not that into If You Ever Did Believe, her Crystal is fine. And I don't have any objection to her production work on TISL. Visually, the Sorcerer video is as hot as anyone could desire.

I think it's her most varied, mature work to date.
As for "Diamond Ring"......it's not my favorite track, but I appreciate the rawness....she's singing from her heart and gut here!
For me, the top tracks are "Peace Be Upon Us" (love the groove!), "Motivation" (love the humor!), "Love Is Free" (love the melody!) and "Since You're Gone" (just love it! I could REALLY see Bonnie Raitt covering this song!)
