Stevie Nicks has gotten her groove back
Rolling Stone Magazine: Stevie Nicks about her new album with Dave Stewart
In the latest edition of the US Rolling Stone magazine Stevie Nicks talks about some of the songs on her upcoming new album and her collaboration on it with Dave Stewart:
"I haven’t been this excited about anything I’ve done since [1981's] Bella Donna,” says Stevie Nicks, who is working on her first solo LP since 2001. The album is a collaboration with Eurythmics’ Dave Stewart, who co-wrote and co-produced the disc (Glen Ballard also worked on the record). "It’s thrilling, because I’ve found a writing partner,” says Nicks. "I never thought that would happen, because I’ve never been into sharing songs.” The record, which Nicks hopes to put out next spring, doesn’t have a title yet but is full of atmospheric, moody rock & roll reminiscent of her best solo work. "For What It’s Worth” is a road song that Heartbreaker Mike Campbell contributed the music for, "In Your Dreams” is a super catchy, uptempo cut, and "Italian Summer” is a grand, romantic ballad based on a trip Nicks recently took to Italy. "It’s so powerful,” she says. "That was a magical time that’s become a magical song.” She adds, "at a certain point, I’m going to get too old for this, but making this album really shows that I’m not done yet.” (ethrill.net)
