This combo DVD/CD set allows us to gaze lovingly at Stevie Nicks as warbles Fleetwood Mac tunes mixed with solo hits and a couple of new tracks-conspicuous by its absence are any tracks from the never re-released "Buckingham/Nicks" album (although Lindsay Buckingham has been threatened to unleash this minor classic on the world again.I know it's all talk).. Nicks whose voice is probably an acquired taste (I've grown to like it although I used to think she sounded like a goat in heat) provided a mystical balance of Lindsey Buckingham's rock 'n' roll flights of fancy and Christine McVie's earthy ballads. The reason for fans to have this will be the DVD that accompanies the CD (or vice versa) with videos for a variety of songs from Nicks' long career. We get 13 videos all solo hits including the overwrought video for "Edge of Seventeen", "Stand Back" and some that I had never seen before (but then I tuned out the idiotic chatter of MTV well over a decade ago). ---

Image & Sound:

Image quality varies quite a bit depending upon the age of the source material and how it was shot. The older videos look pretty decent but do have a bit of bleeding and a number of sections where the images are soft. Audio sounds fine in the remix for 5.1 ---

We get a voice over commentary by Nicks herself that is engaging. Let's not forget the CD as well which is a nice companion piece as some of the songs on the CD are not duplicated on the DVD. We also get home video footage of the making of the "Bella Donna" album that is a nice plus in this set.

Final Words:
