(Review) Stevie Nicks: In Your Dreams
The dreamy, mystical “Annabel Lee” offers Nicks’ catchiest melody in years, her precise vocals pulsing over a sturdy, John McVie-esque bass and a Lindsey Buckingham-influenced guitar sweep.

Amid the fingerpicked folk of “For What It’s Worth,” the most nostalgic, romantic track from Stevie Nicks’ seventh studio album, America’s most beloved and mysterious gypsy princess emotes, “I got to sing; I got to dance; I got to be a part of the great romance.” No mystery there. As a former vocalist and songwriter for ’70s legends Fleetwood Mac, Nicks did experience the ups and the downs, the fame and the decline, the mysticism and the harsh reality of the rock star life.
No matter what she does, Nicks will never escape the large-looming legacy of her former band, the monster collective that cranked out masterpieces like Rumours and Tusk. Not that she’s avoiding the association—she did, after all, record with the band on their 2003 comeback, Say You Will, and participate in the sporadic tours that have taken place since. But she’s never quite reached her former act’s level of acclaim or commercial success, and she’s certainly never crafted that one album that’s come to define her as a solo artist. Her first attempt, 1981’s Bella Donna, has come closest on all counts, sprouting an array of top-notch singles (like “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around” and the oft-referenced “Edge of Seventeen”), but even still, most of her best moments as a soloist bear The Mac’s stylistic hallmarks.

Stevie Nicks on In Your Dreams and the Duet That Brought Her Back to 1973 With Lindsey Buckingham
Stevie Nicks on In Your Dreams and the Duet That Brought Her Back to 1973 With Lindsey Buckingham
By: Robert Burke Warren
Stevie Nicks says writing and recording her seventh studio album, In Your Dreams, was probably the most fun she’s had making music since Fleetwood Mac put out its self-titled album in 1975. The thirteen tracks came together at Nicks's Pacific Palisades home in early 2010, with producer-songwriter-guitarist Dave Stewart (Eurythmics), hit-maker Glen Ballard (Alanis Morissette, Michael Jackson, Aerosmith), and Fleetwood Mac alums Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood. Vulture spoke with Nicks about her "magical" communal writing process and how it compared to her contentious collaborations with Buckingham.

Why was making this album so much fun for you?
We worked four or five days a week, and we’d break at seven for dinner — we had dinners for ten to twelve people every night — and we’d discuss politics and music and the world, and then went back to work for two or three hours. It was an experience. It was like Magical Mystery Tour. It was so much fun that when it was over and all of the people started packing to go and taking the recording equipment, I just sat down on the couch and started to cry. It was like, "I don't want this to be over."

It’s been a decade since her last solo studio album, but Nicks sounds anything but rusty here. Former Eurythmics principal Dave Stewart co-wrote seven of these 13 songs and sings on two, clearly pushing Nicks into vintage form on Beatles-leaning cuts like “Everybody Loves You,” “Italian Summer” and the lengthy Edgar Allan Poe adaptation “Annabel Lee,” rockers such as the title track and “Ghosts Are Gone,” and rich melodic fare like the single, “Secret Love,” “For What It’s Worth” and “New Orleans.” Mick Fleetwood and Lindsey Buckingham both show up here -- the latter on the affecting “Soldiers Angel” -- but “In Your Dreams” reminds us that Nicks has far too much music in her to be solely confined within Fleetwood Mac.
