Wake me up... its not a dream! It's been a decade since Stevie Nicks whirled through our hearts and souls delivering her magical artistry from her secret neverland. Bringing her dreams alive, Stevie Nicks ,with producer Dave Stewart, brew up a classic and timeless, yet surprising twist in rock, pop, country and blues on her new album, "In Your Dreams", released today. Leading us through the streets of "New Orleans" and up the stairs in "Secret Love", through the forests in what might be the most fascinating of tracks on the album, "Moonlight, A Vampire's Dream", or through the hills and mountains in an "Italian Summer", Stevie's lyrical imagery will grasp the small gypsy soul in everyone, even if you never knew you had one. With a raw acoustical sound on "For What its Worth", and a vintage harmonical blend with Lindsey Buckingham on "Soldier's Angel", Stevie's tribute to our national soldiers, one would have thought they had time traveled back to the pre Fleetwood Mac year of 1973 when Lindsey and Stevie were just a budding duo. Stevie lends an amazing musical element to Edgar Allen Poe's poem "Annabel Lee" in one of the more uptempo songs of the album. Dave Stewart seems to lead Stevie back to a world of romance and one I believe she loves, a world where music can be free. Through the thick fog, the ghosts, and vampires, Dave has mastered the art of finding the simple and purer form of Stevie in one of the most touching songs from the album, "Cheaper Than Free" a duet on the final page of this most anticipated and highly recommended Stevie Nicks album. A Stevie fan must and masterpiece. A
