A quick story: I saw her on this tour in Las Vegas at the Aladdin hotel. It was a solo tour, no opening act, no closing act. When she reached the end of her set list, she went around and gathered flowers just like you see in this video. Someone stole her ring right off of her finger. She went back over to the microphone. Had the lights turned off in the whole venue and said, “ someone stole my ring. These lights are going to remain off for five minutes and if my ring is not back on the stage at the end of the five minutes the concert is over.” I don’t think anybody left the room. Five minutes later, when the stage lights came back on, she walked over picked up her ring put it on her finger and continued with two more encores. What a class act she is !!!

This album was constantly on my turntable in 1981. Stevie had clearly arrived. The title song, (Bella Donna), Edge of Seventeen and Stop Dragging my Heart Around are the clear stars, but as others have pointed out, many other cuts resonated. The Highwayman is one of my faves. Agree that in the day we had real voices, real musicianship, real writing, real talent. I saw Christine McVee say once in an interview that although she was always so impressed with Stevie's great song writing, she often had no idea what her songs meant. 😂

I got into Fleetwood Mac in the mid 70's and the had a friend give me the album Buckingham Nicks in 1979 and its a fantastic album. When Stevie came out with Belladonna it was so good and really showcased her talent. I saw her in concert in 1983 and have some criticism about it because of her issues then and was a bit disappointed in her performance. I saw her again in 1989 when she had taken control of her life and it was absolutely fantastic. Remember, Stevie wrote songs about the breakup between her and Lyndsay Buckingham for the Rumors album and Lyndsay had to play on the songs.

Hey Sebs, what I love about your reactions is that you examine the lyrics and research the backstory on the artist and the song. Yeah our generation already knew just how freakin awesome so many of these performances are. And it brings back just a bit of that thrill when we see your genuine appreciation learning about the context. To speak to your mention of current female rockers, one that you didn't mention is Miley Cyrus. Have you checked out much of her work? I admit, I first learned about her from my 11 year old daughter, but that was 15 years ago. Her cover of Metallica's Nothing Else Matters Live at Glastonbury really is epic.
@lizetteolsen32185 ай бұрын
This is often a transition song in her concerts--she collects gifts from the audience. Her back-up singers are friends/family--and you hit it. She has always said she is a rock star--was before she ever moved to LA with Lyndsey. Have seen her live many, many times since the 70s--I prefer her solo shows to FM. She and Lyndsey opened for Janis Joplin early in their career--she has modeled her live performance based on the energy she saw Janis do.
