Create your own best of Stevie cd

DavidMn · #1 04-21-2006, 01:17 PM

I thought this would be a fun thread to balance the one in the Rumours section. I will readily admit I lean more towards Stevie's work with Fleetwood Mac, but I did make up a cd of my personal favorites. Feel free to critique as you wish and add your own favorites. I figure this has probably been done here before but it's always fun to ressurect it now and again.

My cd:

1. Bella Donna
2. Kind Of Woman
3. EO17, Live
4. How Still My Love
5. Leather And Lace
6. Outside The Rain
7. Forest Of The Black Roses
8. Blue Lamp
9. Gold And Braid
10. Enchanted
11. Standback
12. Beauty And The Beast
13. Talk To Me
14. Has Amyone Ever Written Anything For You
15. Battle Of The Dragon
16. Desert Angel
17. Sorceror

This was my suggestion in a thread not too long ago about what should go on the new "best of" that Stevie allegedly will be releasing sometime this year. Mind you, these aren't necessarily all of my favorites, but if I wanted to give someone a good one-disc overview of Stevie's solo career, with a good sampling of hits juxtaposed with some more obscure material, this is probably how I'd do it:

1. Edge Of Seventeen (Live 1981)
2. Wild Heart
3. Talk To Me
4. Planets Of The Universe
5. After The Glitter Fades
6. Violet And Blue
7. Stand Back
8. Rooms On Fire
9. Stop Draggin' My Heart Around
10. Juliet (remixed, Hornsby's piano way up)
11. Blue Denim
12. Every Day
13. I Can't Wait
14. If Anyone Falls
15. Fall From Grace
16. Sleeping Angel

If it fits on an 80 minute disc, it's all good.

No, I love that one. And Benmont Tench's wandering, extemporaneous M1 organ line puts a lump in my throat. The whole track does, really.
