Bella Donna by Stevie Nicks (CD, Oct-1990, Modern)

The Gold Woman's first solo project is a must have in every household! This album contains some of Stevie's finest solo pieces with such classics as the powerful, spell-binding, guitar-riffing "Edge Of Seventeen", and memorable duets with rock legend Tom Petty on "Stop Dragging My Heart Around" not to be out shined by legendary Eagles alum Don Henley on the country-twang love story of "Leather and Lace". Some of my other favorites include, "Outside The Rain", which is a nice melodic follow-up to Fleetwood Mac's #1 hit and all-time classic "Dreams", the easy charm of "How Still My Love", and of course the smooth regretfuliness of love lost expressed in "Kind Of Woman". The heartfelt grace of "After The Glitter Fades", says it best, "everything I touch these days seem to turn to gold".
