New stevie and dave duet

[Christopher]

I enjoy reading everyone's commentary/opinions about Stevie and her music. I think generally that's why we all come to the Ledge, to read and sometimes share. Others post's allow us to see Stevie through another lens, but I've often found that it rarely changes my opinion and always confirms the obvious, that despite our communal connection to Stevie's music - we all have different tastes and expectations...which is life! Some want this new project to be another Bella Donna -which it could never ever be because of reasons too numerous to go into on this post, others want it to be as good as TISL etc. I have spent a great deal of time this year listening to Stevie's solo output, partly due to excitement about the new record, and after listening it occurred to me that my opinion before ever hearing a completed finished track is that this new album will be unlike anything she has done before, as true as each of her solo albums are very different and distinctly unique.

Stevie also has her opinions and is on record as saying that she thinks that this record may go down as her greatest work, and compares the excitement and creativity she feels about this project to the excitement she felt while making Bella Donna. Pretty heady stuff, and as soon we all read it, it energized all kinds of conjecture and presumption. It lit our little Ledgeheads on fire!! So we all critique a 40 second demo to death, it's all par for the course. As long as were talking - we're interested & intrigued. I happen to like it, but ultimately surmise it's just one song in 12-14 that I will either love, like or hopfeully not... loathe. The new record will likely have something for everyone - as Stevie has said herself that the record is very diverse. Just like us.
