STEVIE NICKS – ” The Complete Studio Albums & Rarities “

Posted: June 15, 2023 in MUSIC

“Complete Studio Albums & Rarities” is a new 10CD box set featuring the solo output of Stevie Nicks. The singer-songwriter has released eight solo records since her 1981, and was the first woman inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, first as a member of Fleetwood Mac and then as a solo artist in 2019.

Stevie Nicks released her solo debut, “Bella Donna”, in 1981, a quadruple-platinum #1 smash that launched her immensely successful solo career. The beloved singer-songwriter has released eight acclaimed solo records, selling nearly 10 million albums in the U.S. and influencing generations worldwide.

Rhino combines all of Nicks’ solo studio albums in a new, career-spanning boxed set. It comes with eight albums: Bella Donna (1981), The Wild Heart (1983), Rock a Little (1985), The Other Side of the Mirror (1989), Street Angel (1994), Trouble in Shangri-La (2001), In Your Dreams (2011), and 24 Karat Gold: Songs from the Vault (2014). The collection also features Rarities, a new compilation of hard-to-find tracks only available with the set. Several albums were newly remastered from the analog masters for this release, including “Rock a Little”, “The Other Side of the Mirror”, “Street Angel”, and “Trouble in Shangri-La”.

Additionally this box set features two CDs of Rarities; 23 hard-to-find recordings, including non-album tracks such as contributions to film and television and B-sides. These have also been remastered. “Rarities” collects 23 of Nicks’ best non-album tracks, including numerous contributions to film and television soundtracks like “Blue Lamp” from Heavy Metal and “Free Fallin’” from Party of Five. Several B-sides are featured in the set, including “One More Big Time Rock And Roll Star,” the flipside to her 1985 hit, “Talk To Me.” A trio of songs originally released on Nicks’ 1991 hits collection “Timespace” also appear, including “Love’s A Hard Game To Play.” “Rarities” closes with Nicks’ most recent release, her 2022 cover of Buffalo Springfield’s classic “For What It’s Worth.”

The Box Set follows Nicks’ musical journey across four decades and features her Top 10 hits, “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around” (with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers), “Leather And Lace” (with Don Henley), “Stand Back,” and “Talk To Me.” Other essential hits include “Edge Of Seventeen,” “If Anyone Falls,” “I Can’t Wait,” and “Rooms On Fire.”

As well as the 10CD box, there will be a limited-edition, 16LP version, but that will be exclusive to Rhino.com. “Street Angel”, “Trouble in Shangri-La“, and “In Your Dreams” will all receive their vinyl debut as part of this set. The rarities package will be a 3LP set in what is a clear vinyl box set.

The box set features the following eight albums, with half of them newly remastered (from the analogue tapes):

  • Bella Donna (1981)
  • The Wild Heart (1983)
  • Rock a Little (1985)
