She was a real piece of ass back in the day, Jigga. For a white girl anyway...
She sure used to be something to look at that's for sure.
i just listened to Stand Back, i have 2 say i am really liking this song.
that single she did with Tom Petty is one of my favourites. she's on the cover. Petty isn't.
In what I'm sure is a minority opinion around here, she was great when she had Lindsey Buckingham writing for her/playing behind her; not nearly as interesting on her own. "Edge of 17" et al make decent radio songs, but they're no "Sisters of the Moon."
luv u jigga

I've heard members of Fleetwood Mac say that the title,"Tusk", refers to the male sex organ, but about six months before this album came out, my Orange County coke dealer says,
"Wanna do a tusk?"
and proceeds to lay out this gigantic, fat, jimmypage-sized line of tootski. Yeeow! Naturally, I didn't want my elephant head to be unbalanced, so I "tusked" the right nostril as well.
Anyway, I gotta go with that interpretation; the Mac was legendary when it came to blow consumption, and, goddam if they didn't have a lot of competition in that place and time. My hat's off to them that they could get anything done at all; I could never play music on that shit.
I think I've already related the story about how this male hustler I knew got picked up by Stevie Nicks in front of Gil Turner's (kinda famous liquor store) on Sunset Strip.
"I need some cum!", I believe, were the words she barked from the back of her limo, and, as she honked away on his HIV dispenser, he rifled her purse. Heh. As my late Aunt Edith, god rest her soul, would say, "Who has more fun than people?"

An excellent example of a black artist flourishing in the country genre.
nicks says that stand back was written while she listened to little red corvette. apparently she called prince one day from the studio and he came in and jammed for a bit on synths for the song and left. not sure if he got credit/paid, but nicks says she offered fifty percent of the songwriting to him.
i cant even lie, i am very ignorant when it comes 2 certain music. all i knew about stevie nicks is she was in Fleetwood MAc and destinys child sampled one of ther songs. Thank GOD for Grand Theft Auto huh, that literally inspired me to check her out.
Jigga, you need to check out Rumors if you haven't.

I have that shirt.
Do ya think Tom Petty, Don Henley, Kenny Loggins and all those other guys who sang duets with Stevie Nicks screwed her; the times in the 1970's were pretty liberal when it came to sexual morals, especially in La La Land. I don't care for her as a vocalist.

Can't speak to the other two, but she and Henley definitely got together. He's acknowledged that as well as she.
