I really don´t prefer her very young voice, which I hear the most on Silver Springs audio version. I love her low voice in those three new Timespace songs, and also on OSOTM or BTM album (include No Question Asked). And I don´t have to forget, she has amazing voice in Trouble In Shangri-la... awesome. And on Street Angel too... well let´s see... from ´87 to ´01

Having become a fan of Stevie when Bella Donna was released, I remember going back and buying all the previous releases from Buckingham Nicks through FM Live, and though I loved the songs, Stevie's early voice esp. BN through Rumours was an acquired taste. I eventually grew to love it, but very much preferred the supple and gritty belting on BD to the fragile, soft tone's on 73'-77' recordings.

Tusk - Wild Heart was practically flawless for me. Stevie became more confident and bolder with each successive release.

RAL - Tango was wild and unpredictable. Seven Wonders was the last thing she recorded in the studio before rehab...and was the end of this era of delectable screaming vocals.

FM-GH (NQA) through BTM - the most boring and lifeless vocals eva'....cept for a few bright spots on "Long Way To Go" and "Doing the Best I Can"

The Dance - Present are unique in their own way...I have learned to adapt and accept that Stevie's instrument is ever evolving, but her persona, charisma and unconventional songwriting style are timeless. This is why she has become a legend!

White Album tour through the recording of Mirage.

I really can't pick just one era to be my favorite. I love the wails through out the white album tour. I love the high notes she could hit during Rumours. And then there's Angel and Sara for Tusk, and the perfection of the HBO Special for Bella Donna. Mirage gave us Gypsy and this is going without mentioning all of the incredible unreleased demos we have from these years. I love it all.

White album to Mirage tour for me, with the emphasis on the Mirage tour.

I know this has been discussed many times but my favorite periods are 78-early 84 so that would be late Rumours /Tusk to early RAL (or what would've been the Mirror,Mirror period)....I esp love the Tusk-WH eras....thats the 'voice' I love as well as the style of stage clothes etc.....those were the times....not that I don't love others as well.....like others have said each has there on style for that time. But those are the times I love the most......

What does everyone think about her voice on the Enchanted tour? I think it should also be a separate category! It was different than The Dance, and much different than TISL. I think it was a lot stronger in 1998 than just prior and after.

1998 was a great year for her voice.

I like all of Stevie's voices, everyone is unique.

LittleCharmer · #26 02-10-2010, 12:50 PM

Buckingham Nicks through to Mirage I'd say is how I enjoy her voice the most.. Have to admit I heartily dislike her voice on TISL..

What I liked best about WH and RAL was that she took risks with her voice, especially onstage.

Her voice was pretty good in 1998. It actually sounded a lot like her voice from the Timespace era (1991-ish). I think it sounded different than The Dance because she started working with a vocal coach sometime before The Dance tour (but after the live recording). The only time I heard her struggle was during "Rhiannon" on the Enchanted tour...the high note on "WOULD you even try" sounded strained.

Personally, I prefer her Dance voice because it had more dynamics and nuance (really, the last we would hear of those types of vocal dynamics from Stevie).
