'Far as poetry goes, all props to Alfred for the thread. We haven't actually mentioned "After The Glitter Fades" by name, but it stands for me among the best of all singer-songwriter SoCaliana*, from "Late For The Sky" through "A Long December."
*A genre defined by the hoovering of rails in an elegiac mode.

Edge of Seventeen is a stone classic. But not as stone classic as "Stone in Love" by Journey which is a double-stone classic for use of the word "stone" in the title.*
*Also, I noticed the other day that the main riff from Stone in Love is totally ripped off by "Drown" by Son Volt, which was by far their best song. Huh.

Suspect the collective might throw a lot of "Windfall" and "Tear Stained Eye" at that Son Volt POO, but "Stone In Love" was WITHOUT QUESTION Journey's finest hour. I love it without irony. Deserves its own thread.

"Edge of Seventeen" was what Destiny's Child sampled for "Bootylicious," right?

I know I have resurrected this thread about a zillion times, but I want to know if anyone knows this song "Gold & Braid" which didn't appear on either of her first two albums for some weird reason. I'm not even positive that she wrote it, but it's become a big fave of mine.
― Earl of Gothington Manor (Bimble), Friday, 17 April 2009 03:09 (fifteen years ago) link
It's on the box set; before then it was only found on that live show VHS to which you linked.
― I'm crossing over into enterprise (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 17 April 2009 03:12 (fifteen years ago) link
Yeah! Thanks for responding. I knew it was on the Enchanted thing, that was it. Allmusic says it's indeed her song, but I suppose allmusic could be wrong.
― Earl of Gothington Manor (Bimble), Friday, 17 April 2009 03:23 (fifteen years ago) link
I mean can someone please look at their CD or whatever and confirm that she has the writing credits on this one? Or someone else? Thanks.
― Earl of Gothington Manor (Bimble), Friday, 17 April 2009 03:24 (fifteen years ago) link
Also, I'm determined to keep calm tonight about the music I love, but I just want to say that her song "Outside The Rain", I heard that on my iPod while running through this HUGE graveyard near my house a couple months ago with my friend, and I can't now divorce that feeling from the song itself. I felt like a child, and its a reminder that this gorgeous HUGE graveyard is near my house and I have only to walk a few blocks and I'm in that place again in my mind. There's something incredible about a child running through the greenery of nature, and she summed up that whole feeling for me.

It's not bad. I don't think that was a balanced collection - they really shortchanged the pre-Buckingham/Nicks era - but that track was a good pick to represent the post-Buckingham lineup, which wasn't exactly rich with gems.

I remember reading Details Magazine when it was still around and they did a Q&A with Stevie and the writer had the audacity to ask her about a rather explicit rumor (rumour?) that was going around at the time. I will paraphrase:
Interviewer: There's a rumor going around that you did so much coke that your nostrils are wrecked and you have an assistant blow coke into your asshole. (Yes, they came right out and asked her about this).
Nicks: (no response)
Interviewer: It must suck having those kinds of rumors about you.
I remember at the time finding it unreal they even asked, and more surprised she didn't storm out of the inteview.

My Stevie @Barbie has been with me now for several months. When Mattel came to me asking if I would like to have a Barbie made in the “Rumours” cover style I was very overwhelmed.
