Least favourite album?

[skcin]

I'd have to go with Street Angel. It just doesn't grab me, I don't know how to explain it. TOSOTM would probably be second.

Now covers? I think TISL might be my favorite. Worst is TOSOTM. Doesn't even look like Stevie. The pic on the back of the album should have been the cover. That one is hot.

For me, it's street angel. I don't hate it like some ppl, it;s just not that good at all, esp in her worst klonopin days. Did she go into rehab after the album was released, or after the tour?

Before the album was released.

I'd rather thank Stevie for being a fun, frothy, festive & funny lady all summer & fall, when she did great radio interviews with Jim Ladd, Mark & Brian, the TV & Radio Museum in New York & others, as well as great TV interviews with Letterman & Leno--all while putting on shows that were zesty, frothy, fun & frolicsome, not to mention beautifully sung, throughout that time in American arenas & amphitheaters.

It was all quite a startling restorative to the previous six or eight years of down-in-the-dumps, zonked-out & really boring Stevie.

Fun times. the street angel era really sucked 4 most of the part, but i'll admit she gave a few good perormances on that tour. such as the edge of 17 when she took her mic off the stand.

Creepy. I was just thinking about this last night, watching a DVD and wondering what it might be like if she were to do that. Sort of as surprising as when Elton John did that -- though with him I guess it was a bit less easy! Being a pianist and all that. Anyway. She did that? Wow.

I don't listen to her 80s solo catalog much anymore because those CDs sound like crap! Let me qualify that... Where are the remasters???

In my mind, that's the quintessential Stevie sound.

I TOTALLY agree!!! The RAL demos are probably my favorite Stevie music, although they were never offically released. RAL was my first Stevie album I bought, due in part to hearing Talk To Me over and over. I figured, hey, I like that song, I'll get the album, not knowing much else about Stevie except from the Fleetwood Mac album my older brother had bought. So the RAL time frame will always be my favorite!!

Me too me too me too!!

But not every day. Just on slow-dancing-with-Le-Buckingham occasions. Which, if I have any say in it, would be pretty damn near to every day. Bwahahahah!

Well I'm sure by my screen name everyone knows my fave Stevie solo song...however....

I love everything she has done...just depends on the mood I'm in.

I am used to belonging to the group of freaks LOL, loving SA and my fave album being TOSOTM.

Since Street Angel has always received different attention and comments, I must say that there are a few songs in particular that amaze me that people don't like them "Kick It", "Maybe Love Will Change Your mind" and "Listen to the Rain"....everyone is entitled to their fave/least fave Stevie album opinion But those are my ULTIMATE faves on that record...and by the way...if you've never driven down the freeway blaring "Listen to the Rain", you're MISSING OUT!! I can recall several San Diego shows I've driven to over the years and done just that!! AAAAAAND yes!!! Docklands KICKS ASS!!!!!!!!!!!! (I sound as if I'm giving my students advice! LOL)

Mine is a tie between Street Angel and TISL. With TISL, I honestly can't stand her voice. It's just too deep for me. As for SA, I can listen to maybe three songs without wanting put the CD in the shredder. As for the cover, it and TOSOTM tie for the worst. She looks too depressed for words. It's almost if you stare at it long enough you'll start having suicidal thoughts.

Listen to the rain is an awesome song it is one of those songs that has to be belted out loud to really appreciate it for me every CD she has released has some very dodgy songs on it that i go what the hell are you singing about. I think the best disc she has is disc 3 from Enchanted. I do really hate highwayman, still miss someone,fire burnin, nightmare, juliet, unconditional love, gate@garden, but then i think about all the other great songs and i can forgive her because she has written and sung more great songs compared to the bad ones but that can be said about almost every singer they have all done songs that to be honest are complete **** but when you consider the great ones @ good ones there a lot more of them than bad ones and she will always be the best hands down without a doubt. Looking at the album covers i just noticed that on the RAL she almost has a smile on her face where as all the others she is pouting apart from TISL when she is walking away but no matter how many bad songs there are she always pulls a great one out and those are the ones that stay with us and give us all total joy listening to them. and thats why we are all here talking about her cause she is the best and totally unique and sexy as hell.
