It's out now. I think it's a lovely package. I'm so glad and impressed that she re-recorded the tracks.

Inspiration & Renewal

Someone needs to examine the circumstances behind this unusual project. Stevie Nicks goes into the studio to re-record some of her Mac classics (like "Landslide"), solo hits, and covers of various songs (like "Crash Into Me") that were featured in her Soundstage concert. I can't wait to hear how it all comes together on the upcoming album.

As an introduction to this endeavor, "Crash Into Me / Landslide" suggests that themes of renewal will be prevalent: it goes from a view of the battle of the sexes as playground taunting on "Crash" ("I'm queen of the castle") to acceptance of age, mortality, maturity on a delicate, orchestral rendition of "Landslide" ("and I'm growing older too"). Renewal, then, is the appropriate theme as she breathes new life into old songs. She genuinely seems inspired.
