South Florida Sun-Sentinel, September 29, 1988


-- This much can be said for Stevie Nicks` solo career: It won`t suffer for lack of material. ``I have about 50 songs from the last two years,`` she reports. ``And if you want to go back through the archives, I`ve probably got another 300.`` Nicks is now wading through some of those songs with producer Rupert Hine, selecting tracks for her fourth solo album, which she hopes to release early next year. Meanwhile, she`ll go into the studio with Fleetwood Mac and producer Don Gehman to record two new songs for a greatest-hits album that`s due this fall.

But it`s her solo album that Nicks is most anxious to work on. ``My music outside of Fleetwood Mac has always been really special to me,`` she says. She`s already done three songs: The Tragedy of One`s Own Soul, Dial a Number and Don`t Treat Me Like a Stranger with Kenny G. Once her record is finished, she plans to make another Mac album, do a solo tour, then tour with the band. ``I`m trying really hard to make everybody happy,`` she says.
