Penguin...that is kind of my point..."an outside producer would temper that" Lindsey has not been known as a compromiser in the production of fleetwood mac.....forgive me but it reminds me of the behind-the-scene story of the making of Gone With the Wind...The director was known as a man who was sensitive and coddled Vivian Lee and the other women of the cast...The big star Clark Gable didnt like it at all...he was the star...The making of the movie was difficult and the power struggle was endless...my hunch is Lindsey would fight with ANYONE who pampered Stevie in the studio and God forbid that Dave try to put a shape to some of Lindsey's "master pieces"

I don't agree. I think there's a lot of complaining about something that we could have easily not had at all.

Maybe the reason why we've seen four videos from IYD is because Dave's willing to do them and can do them reasonably well and for a decent cost. More than likely WB isn't paying for these, so they're coming out of Stevie's budget. I'm happier to see four videos, none of which is actually bad in spite of what armchair coaching Ledgies might think, than 1 or none at all.

Very true, and well spoken!

I agree.

If left up to WB we probably would have just gotten "Secret Love". I'm grateful the 4 we have. I mean, 4 videos! From Stevie! From one album! It's fantastic.

I am sooooo happy with Dave's production of this cd - I am so happy with Dave's passion for this cd - I am so happy that Dave created an atmosphere where Stevie felt comfortable enough to shoot a documentary - I am so happy that Dave created an vibe in the studio where Stevie loves making great music again but the production value of the video for Moonlight is just bad...as someone else had said...he put everything but the kitchen sink in that video and the song could have made such a beautiful video - I am a HUGE Dave Stewart fan but the Moonlight video missed the mark..

Of course we do. You can buy the SL, CTF and FWIW vids from iTunes. You can view "Moonlight" on YouTube, and hopefully that one will eventually be available on iTunes also.

If you're talking about the documentary though, yes we don't have it but that's not what I was talking about. I was talking about the music videos.

If we're being honest, I really see this as the "reinvention" of Stevie Nicks. Even though her reinvention is really just her getting back to her roots.

I feel like there is so much going on with this album- for the fans, at least, if no one else.

Her music videos are great, compared to the lackluster sorcerer video (I will say Everyday was a great video.) However, honestly, the girl looks better than she did in the TISL videos anyway. Compare the way she looks in the FWIW or Moonlight video to Sorcerer again. Her face looks thinner, she looks happier. Idk, maybe it's just me.

I feel like TISL Stevie was running on the trails of The Dance, whereas IYD Stevie is a full on reinvention of the Rumours day.

Just my little rant!

Thank you!!! I totally agree. I loved the Everyday video. It was stunningly beautiful. But Stevie has said what a grueling shoot it was. I mean, having a 50 something year old woman standing on slippery wet rocks for several hours. And I could be wrong but didn't she say she hated the peach dress? And the SYW videos which were just a recording of a live performance and nothing more, and Stevie didn't even get to dress up because Lindsey made her tone it down with that very modest black dress with the pearl buttons. I'm thrilled to see Stevie mugging for the camera, laughing and smiling through the various videos for this CD, and obviously having the time of her life. And at 63 years old and all that she's given her fans over the years and everything she's given up just to be Stevie Nicks, she really deserves to be doing a project that she simply enjoys. And if that means gleefully playing dress up with Dave Stewart rather than some WB chosen bitchy producer (not pointing fingers at any producer she's worked with in the past, of course) forcing her to do things she doesn't want to do, I think she should be able to do it and really enjoy herself. The entire In Your Dreams project seems like a period of Stevie's life that she's really enjoyed and is sharing with us. And even the videos are like a peek into her world rather than some acted out set of images on a soundstage somewhere. I mean, how many of us have had a chance for a tour of her house before? And here we've seen tons of shots of her foyer with those beautiful circular stairs, her back yard, the beautiful art on her walls, I mean it's really incredible. I'm loving every minute of it.

It would be wonderful if a video of her playing Moonlight on the piano turned up on this documentary as well.
