The Aloha for Japan Celebrity Car Wash held over the weekend at the Ho’ole’a Terrace raised an estimated $4,000 in four hours. The funds raised are going towards the American Red Cross tsunami and earthquake relief efforts in Japan.

Over the course of the event, more than 100 cars were soaped up and sprayed down by dozens of volunteers, including familiar names such as Mick Fleetwood, Henry Kapono and Marty Dread.

(Review) Stevie Nicks' "In Your Dreams," isn't simply a trick. It's Nicks' best music since 1983

It took Stevie Nicks 40 years to become unpredictable.

The Journal
Jeb Inge - Journal Copy Editor

After decades of chart-topping repetition and radio-friendly solo albums, Nicks entered the new millennium seemingly spent. As recently as Fleetwood Mac's 2009 tour, the white winged dove wheezed more than wowed. But like the sorcerers and witches lacing her songs, Nicks always has another trick up her mystical sleeve.

Her latest solo album, "In Your Dreams," isn't simply a trick. It's Nicks' best music since 1983.

"In Your Dreams" is unpredictable in the only way an album from an aging rocker can be: It doesn't sound like microwaved nostalgia. Sure, Nicks still relies on the well-worn themes of California witches and love's labor lost. She's been doing that since she joined Fleetwood Mac with Lindsey Buckingham on New Year's Eve 1974. But in 2011, the era of Cullens, and Bella Swans, and shirtless werewolves, her music regains a youthful glisten.

Stevie Nicks' In Your Dreams: Yes, It Really Is Her Best Album in Years
By Niki D'Andrea
Phoenix New Times

Phoenix resident Stevie Nicks' new album, In Your Dreams, was released today. Rolling Stone writer Rob Sheffield has already given the album rave reviews, calling it Nicks' best album in a decade.

It's hard to argue with that, especially considering that Nicks hasn't released an album in a decade (her last solo record was Trouble in Shangri-La in 2001). But is the Valley songbird's latest album really "her best work since the 80s"? I listened to In Your Dreams, and came to my own conclusions.

First, In Your Dreams is way, way better than Trouble in Shangri-La. The latter album was one of the first times Nicks didn't have a star songwriter or producer working with her -- not that she didn't try. Nicks had met her old friend Tom Petty for dinner at the Copper Star Club near US Airways Center and asked him to write some songs for her. According to Nicks, Petty told her to write her songs herself. The result was a collection of predictable and uninspired pop songs that couldn't be saved even with a guest vocal from then it-girl Macy Gray.

(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.
