Yesterday marked the 40th anniversary of Stevie Nicks’ solo debut “Bella Donna” and she marked the occasion with a special post on Instagram.
“’Bella Donna was a dream,” she wrote. “I chose Lori Perry, Nicks, and Sharon Celani as my army to go on that journey with me. I wanted us to sound like the girl version of Crosby, Stills, and Nash,” adding, “I did not want the record to sound anything like Fleetwood Mac — that would have defeated the dream.”
She also insisted that the album “did not break up Fleetwood Mac," explaining, “If anything, it kept us together. And then — as all never-ending dreams always do — it opened the doors of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, took my hand, and invited me in for my own work, for the women of the world. The thing I am most proud of.”
