That HAS to be the reason. As I've mentioned before, in terms of her solo material, only Bella Donna and The Wild Heart are fantastic albums top to bottom. Rock A Little is trash, The Other Side Of The Mirror was mostly underwhelming and Street Angel was embarrassing. I didn't think Trouble In Shangra-La was all that special and I've never listened to In Your Dreams or 24 Karat Gold.

Stack up her solo work to her work in Fleetwood Mac and it's not even close to being competitive. Outside of her first two solo albums, none of her music transcends time. People talk about Tango In The Night having a "dated" sound. Compared to Rock A Little and The Other Side Of The Mirror, Tango In The Night sounds like it came out yesterday.

Personally, I think there are plenty of women and men who had better and more prolific careers than Stevie. Of course my opinion doesn't matter and she's in the HoF forever. Good for her but she never would have got as far as she did by herself if it weren't for Fleetwood Mac and Lindsey's production on her songs.
