Bella Donna and The Wild Heart remastered and reissued, due out November 4th

[mitzo]

Good stuff for fans. And probably a good move by Stevie.

I have most of the songs on the original releases and Enchanted and so on. I am also very selective of what I would bother with from that era of Stevie. I adore her but really only savour a certain subcategory of her work. For example "rockers" like Gold and Brain or Enchanted or Violet and Blue make me tired. Much of Bella Donna too. Sorry. I know this is against the mainstream grain among fans. Just an opinion and not meant to criticize the tastes of others.

I would have vastly preferred a 24KG2 with fresh takes and new vocals. These re-master/re-releases keep us in the (shaky uneven production and song choices) 80's and likely indicate no new recordings are coming anytime soon.

Just my (really minority) view. On with the discussion, enjoy the re-releases.
