Stevie played Not Fade Away live with Tom Petty in the mid-80's. It's probably just a coincidence.

Wow this is totally awesome! She sounds awesome on the track. Her voice actually sounds really young here like Buckingham Nicks era! It's awesome! Stevie please do an album where you sing this kind of rock and roll and the blues...please?

This is another of Stevie's long mooted projects that she's mentioned several times before. I'd love it but I'm not holding my breath. Boo!

I love it - you'd think RS would get the song titles right - it's listed as "Let's Fade Away" on their music player.

No - instead an interviewer should actually have the balls to deviate from the standard Lindsey/Klonopin etc questions and actually ask her about them. If she starts to ramble that she'll do them... then perhaps the interviewer actually say that she's been saying that for years and fans have been waiting and can she give a concrete answer? Call her on it and see what she says! God forbid a rock journalist wants an answer to an actual question, lol.

I think that's the only way we'll find out about them, through an interview.

True. I just feel that unfortunately since Stevie is so famous that no interviewer would dare to call her out on anything. Stevie is a little intimidating...I just really wish she would do some of these things that she has been talking about for YEARS!

I purchased Stevie's version of Not Fade Away on itunes shortly after midnight this morning. Here are a couple of my favorite versions:

Set to air beginning December 3, the all-star concert also features performances by Chris Isaac, Lyle Lovett, Paul Anka, Boz Scaggs and Michelle Branch along with video tributes by Keith Richards, Ringo Starr and more.

PBS has released a preview clip of its upcoming Buddy Holly tribute concert, set to air beginning December 3 (check local listings). Listen To Me: The Ultimate Buddy Party features performances by Stevie Nicks, Chris Isaak, Lyle Lovett, Paul Anka, Boz Scaggs, Raul Malo, Graham Nash, Michelle Branch, Shawn Colvin, Patrick Stump and Cobra Starship’s Gabe Saporta and Victoria Asher along with video tributes by Keith Richards, Ringo Starr, Jackson Browne, Brian Wilson, Eric Idle and more.

Buddy Holly Remembered: Tribute Albums and a TV Special Keep the Music Alive Stevie Nicks: 12 Revelations From the Grammy Museum EventHolly’s widow, Maria Elena, was also present for the all-star celebration, which was filmed at Hollywood’s Music Box Theater in September, marking what would have been Holly’s 75th birthday.

Produced by Songmasters and KQED-TV with veteran music manager and one-half of 1960s folk duo Peter and Gordon Peter Asher serving as music supervisor, producer, performer and host, many of the participants went way back with the rock-n-roll pioneer -- Anka had worked with the late singer as early as 1959 at barely 18 years old.

Says Asher in an announcement of the broadcast: “Buddy showed us how brilliant and unforgettable songs could be written using the simplest of chords. He taught us the value of a lyric which came from the heart and the importance of making records the way you heard them in your head. His music has never ceased to play a major role in my life and work.”

Buddy Holly all-star tribute concert to premiere on PBS on Dec. 3
October 27, 2011 | 12:45 pm

PBS will premiere “Buddy Holly: Listen To Me/The Ultimate Buddy Party” on Dec. 3 with performances of his songs by Stevie Nicks, Chris Isaak, Lyle Lovett, Graham Nash, Raul Malo, Paul Anka, Boz Scaggs and several others at a 75th birthday concert staged last month in Hollywood.

The 60-minute special captures 17 of Holly’s best-known songs along with a couple of obscurities from the Sept. 7 show at the Music Box in Hollywood, where Cobra Starship, Patrick Stump, Shawn Colvin and emcee-singer Peter Asher also gathered to celebrate Holly’s music. Others in attendance included Holly’s widow, Maria Elena Holly, and Phil Everly of the Everly Brothers, who with his brother, Don, toured with Holly before his death at age 22 in a 1959 plane crash. He would have turned 75 on Sept. 7.

The event also incorporated taped messages from other high-profile Holly fans, including Ringo Starr, Keith Richards, Brian Wilson, Jackson Browne and Monty Python alumnus Eric Idle.

Nicks sang “Not Fade Away” and “It’s So Easy”; Isaak and Michelle Branch dueted on “Heartbeat”; Nash, Scaggs and Asher teamed up for “Rave On”; Stump sang “Oh, Boy!”; and Malo handled the ballad “True Love Ways.” An all-star ensemble, also including guitarists James Burton and Albert Lee and a cameo vocal by Everly, finished the show with “That’ll Be the Day.”

A DVD from the concert will be available as a thank-you gift to PBS subscribers who pledge at a prescribed amount during the December fundraising drive. The concert was staged conjunction with the release of the second of two Holly tribute albums this year: "Listen to Me: Buddy Holly," which featured most of the same performers at the Music Box show. The other album, "Rave On Buddy Holly," featured another batch of Holly devotees, including Paul McCartney, Nick Lowe, Lou Reed, She & Him, Patti Smith and Cee Lo Green, offering new takes on his music.

Update, 5:05 p.m.: An earlier version of this post said a DVD of the concert would be issued next year. The DVD will be offered during pledge drive as a thank you to subscribers.
