Street Angel

[PenguinHead]

A much maligned album...and even denounced by Stevie herself. While I'll admit I was dissapointed in it when it came out, after waiting five years for a new album. But I've warmed up to it. I'm interested in what other fans' first impressions of the album were?

I think it fits in well with her catalog, providing some contrast with her other albums. It sounds a little grittier (is that a word?) than her other work. In my fantasy world, she would have taken Street Angel out on the streets, playing small clubs with a hard rockin' stripped down band.

She'd open the show with Love Is Like A River...being introduced as "Please welcome Street Angel Stevie Nicks!" She'd walk out as the organ intro played, and the band would kick in hard, and she'd blow the club away with her "AHHHHHHH!"

Aside from the songs that she did play on that tour (Maybe Love, Docklands, Blue Denim, Destiny) she'd also play Listen To The Rain, Kick It and Street Angel. Actually, she would exclude Docklands, which she, in reality, dropped from the set early in the tour.

It's a show that obviously exists only in my fuzzy head. Gee, I need to go to bed now. Think I had too much wine!! Least I can still type! lol
