I agree with Jondalar that many of the songs would have been hits in Nicks' heyday: the title track, "Starshine," "Blue Water," possibly "Lady".

On the other hand, OSOTM and TISL are much better albums than Jondalar gives them credit for. OSOTM is probably Nicks' most underrated album, IMO. The writing is solid, "Rooms On Fire" and "Whole Lotta Trouble" are great tracks. TISL in particular is a very strong album, a solid comeback, and had great success: Top 5, nearly 700,000 in sales in the US, two Top 20 AC hits ("Every Day" and "Sorcerer"), and a number 1 dance hit "Planets of the Universe".

Hey, I'm not disagreeing with you. I never questioned the album's quality. I merely stated it was a "fan album", because it's comprised of old demos that were re-recorded at the persistent request of fans.

Yeah, I kinda like dance music, but that Illicit Mix...
