Stevie Nicks - In Your Dreams

Stevie Nicks' seventh studio album featuring the classic singles "Secret Love," "For What It's Worth" & "Moonlight (A Vampire's Dream)." Originally released in 2011, the album peaked at #6 on the Billboard 200. Limited-edition 2LP pressed on Forest Green vinyl.
This 22-track live collection features six previously unreleased recordings from the October 21, 1982 show, including favorites like “Landslide,” “Don’t Stop,” and “Never Going Back Again.” The other songs were recorded at the October 22 show and have appeared on various releases through the years, including Live Super Deluxe Edition (2021), Mirage Super Deluxe Edition (2016) and the 1983 concert video Mirage Live.
In September 1982, Fleetwood Mac embarked on a 31-city U.S. tour in support of Mirage, the band’s fourth consecutive multi-platinum album and third No. 1 in America. Both shows at The Forum were recorded, and Mirage Tour ‘82 combines songs from both into a single concert experience.
Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, and Stevie Nicks were at the height of their collective power at these shows, delivering a hyper-charged setlist filled with hits new and old. Standouts include “Songbird,” “Oh Well,” “Love In Store,” “Go Your Own Way,” and a version of “Landside” for the ages.
In the set’s liner notes, music journalist and songwriter Bill DeMain calls the collection “a riveting listen” and a reminder of a time when rock shows “were platforms to expand and reinvent songs for the stage, to let them breathe, to unleash different, wilder sides of a band.”
Listen to the previously unreleased live version of "Don't Stop" from Mirage Tour ‘82 below.
Stevie Nicks opens up about infection that forced the postponement of two shows
Stevie Nicks took the stage in Glasgow, Scotland, on Wednesday after previously postponing her show in the city, and she explained to fans what kept her from performing in the first place.
In fan-shot footage posted to YouTube, Stevie revealed she got an infection that led to her hospitalization.
“When I got here I was just really excited to be in Glasgow,” she told the audience. “And I don’t know what happened, I just got this weird infection, and it just went crazy.”
Stevie shared that she had gotten to Glasgow a few days early in order to enjoy the city and was staying at a castle when she realized something was wrong.
“I finally looked at my assistant, it was like 2 in the morning, and I said, ‘I think we need to go to emergency,’ and she looked at me and I just said, ‘I’m not kidding, I think we need to go to the hospital,'” she said.
The butler then sped Stevie to the hospital, where she wound up staying for two days.
“They let me go back to the castle, and we canceled this show,” she said. “This whole tour I’ve been fighting what started here, and I would be damned if I wasn’t coming back here.”
Stevie’s Glasgow show was originally supposed to take place on July 6, with the postponement blamed on “a recent leg injury requiring a minor surgical procedure that will need a few days of recovery time.” She also postponed a show in Manchester.
Wednesday night’s makeup show was the last date of Stevie’s European tour. She has two more U.S. shows on the books for 2024: Sept. 24 in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Sept. 28 in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
Stevie's thanks to 'special' Scottish medical team
She commended the help and hospitality she was given by the medical team: “I was so looked after there.
“You are a really special country and a really special people.”
The ‘Edge of Seventeen’ singer comment that ‘she was happy as she got to stay in the castle a couple more days’ as she adored staying there and the country.
Nicks told the crowd how she has been "battling this the whole tour" to which the crowd gave her a rapturous round of applause.
Before she said with determination: “But, I would be damned if I wasn’t coming back here to play this show and finish this tour.”
'A big Scottish goodbye' from the rock legend
At the end of the emotional show, Nicks brought all her crew, band and friends on stage to thank them as the rescheduled date had meant it had turned out to be the last gig in her two-year tour.
Nicks said: “This is our last show, we’ve been on the road for two-years now and this is the final, final show."
Stevie Nicks, Glasgow review - ‘dazzled with the evergreen
wonder of her songwriting gift’
Even though she spent more time introducing some songs than actually singing them, Stevie Nicks still managed to hold her audience’s attention, writes Jay Richardson
The creative and romantic psychodrama behind Fleetwood Mac's success is legendary. Yet the enduring rockers' most enduring survivor, Stevie Nicks, belatedly closing her latest tour in Glasgow after medical issues forced her to postpone the original date, still treated her crowd to a lengthy account of how she and Lindsey Buckingham ended up joining the band, transforming them into the world's biggest pop outfit in the 1970s. Indeed, between several changes of cape to emphasise her persona as “the psychic witch that everyone thinks I am” and all the tales behind the songs (both in the band and from her illustrious solo career), with the introductions at times lasting three or four times longer than the tracks themselves, she truly tested the crowd’s love for her, which nevertheless remained strong.
Performed with her vocal coach Steve Real, the timelessly gorgeous ballad Leather And Lace acquired additional depth from Nicks' yarn of how she wrote it for Waylon Jennings and his wife Jessi Colter shortly before their split. But a rather by-the-numbers cover of Stephen Stills' For What It's Worth was insufficient reward for an interminable, decades-spanning explanation of why she loved the song.
Thankfully, the second half of the setlist featured less exposition. And it's a hard heart that would deny Nicks the chance to pay tribute to some of her greatest departed collaborators, including Tom Petty, with a soaring, gutsy rendition of Free Fallin', and her poignant take on Landslide which closed the night, emphasising her sisterhood with her Mac bandmate Christine McVie. Highlights included the white hot rock of Petty composition Stop Draggin' My Heart Around and the anthemic juggernaut of Edge Of Seventeen, its iconic guitar riff propelling almost everyone in the Hydro out of their seats.
Opening her encore with the driving rhythms of Rhiannon, Nicks belied her 76 years for a show that was low on surprises, overburdened with filler but generally dazzled with the evergreen wonder of her and her peers' songwriting gift.
