Especially with this younger crop of celebs. Even backTh in her heyday, Stevie was never truly taken seriously by rock critics. She was lampooned almost universally. It's such a different story with In Your Dreams... we're seeing the first truly gushing album reviews of Stevie's career! I've gotta say, it's highly vindicating .

That's an absolutely accurate assessment! This album will/is having a huge, lasting impact on Stevie's legacy. You mention about people not admitting loving her, I felt just like that in high school with Fleetwood Mac. They were my "secret love" at a time when they were not very cool with my peer group.

d) think Stevie is the guy who used to sing with some chick named Lindsay Buckingham.
e) think Stevie was pretty great but destroyed her voice in the early '80s & is now un-listenable.

Is anyone else shocked at how good Kate Hudson sounded singing "Silver Springs"? I think Stevie just found the woman who can play her in the biopic.

Wow......after reading I have to admit I feel old! I was 18 when Rhiannon was the craze and all us girls wanted to dress up like Stevie and be Rhiannon along with her! It was almost like a, "Rhiannon cult" so to speak. I do agree though that the rock critics never did take her seriously, not even Jimmy Iovine as well when they hooked up to do Bella Donna. He told her straight up she wasn't a proven singer and had to be serious. In her early days the media and critics were critical of her and she struggled with that...to the point where she said she wanted to quit.

Perfect choice! I wonder how Stevie would feel about this. Is she a Kate Hudson fan?
