Stevie's new album

DWIG · #1 10-10-2004, 05:00 PM

I wonder how long we'll have to wait for Stevie's new abum?
Hope it's not too long

This might seem like an inane post but just felt like i should post, because of the lack of posts from Stevie fans.

I think that all major Stevie fans should get off their arses and post a couple of messages!! (i know that i am one of the guilty, lazy fans who doesn't post that often - but i always read whatever anyone else has to say, so come on Stevie fans get typing!!!)

Well, your title got me to read your post! I thought you had info about a new album!

I agree...hopefully we'll hear something about a new album soon, even if it's just news that she's in the studio.

Hopefully not too long- I love that weathered, whiskey, raspy, nasally voice! I am adicted to Stevie's vocals as of late. Ever since TISL her vocals have been really really cool and her songs have been great. I thought TISL was great and then SYW came out and I was blown away. With vocals like the ones on Smile at You and Everybody Finds Out how can you not love Stevie?

Anyways, I hope she marches herself into the Studio ASAP and make a double album and then tours her butt of (with lots and lots of tourdates in the Florida area!)

I thought "Trouble In Shangri-La" was the most varied of Stevie's albums...Her vocals were wickeder and more passionate than they have been in years. So, I'm waiting with bated breath for ANY news regarding a new album. There are sure to be many worthy unreleased songs in her archives in addition to new material she's written.

...And the "Smile At You" performance was a knock-out.

When I talked to Jessica Nicks at the Detroit show, she said that Stevie would be in the studio in no time. Then when I was talking to a friend later that night she said that within 2 months Stevie would be in the studio. We can only hope thats the truth

I'm sure she'll be in the studio soon, but that means next to nothing. It's all about how long it takes to make the freakin' thing. Street Angel took three years and TISL took six.

And she went through producers like water.

She was telling everyone it was going to be released "soon" back in '98, for cripes sake.

Bue she also said in interviews that she purposefully put TISL on hold for The Dance and then the Enchanted tour - so . . .

In fact, she even went into that when TISL was released when she said although it has taken six years, the actual time worked on the record was something like a year because she kept putting it on hold, etc.

That's all fine and dandy, but three years is not "soon."

It's nice that she's going back to the studio, but do any of you really think we'll get anything within a year or two? Hell no. Three years at least. And you can quote me on that.

I know, unfortunately.

But I've got my fingers crossed for a Lindsey one soon.

Hopefully, because she doesn't have any more FMac commitments (or at least not that i know of anyway!), she will go straight into the studio, get the work done - find some exciting producers and collaborators to work with (Rufus Wainwright) and get the thing released pretty quickly. I have always thought Stevie should record a country-ish album (which would follow in the footsteps of Bella Donna)

Incidentally, i just heard the new Chris Isaac duet and Stevie's voice sounds very good on it (though the song is mundane as most Christmas records are!)
I also thought Stevie's voice was in amazing form on the tour, so she should capitalise on this and get stuff recorded.

I vote for She loves him still to be on the next record!!

I'd also love it if she did a countryish record but I'd want her to work with people like Ryan Adams or Rick Rubin (let's face it she ain't gonna be working with Ethan Johns, despite recording one of his songs, unless he hates his dad!), rather than John Shanks (sorry folks I don't rate him despite loving TISL!)

Hmmm, but I guess the Dixies are marginally better than the likes of Kenny G and Bruce Hornsby.

There is one thing I like about Bruce Hornsby though....

... his Range

Cool is subjective, but all of those people she has worked with in the past were popular, which is probably why she worked with them I guess. For the record, I LOVED the Kenny G stuff
