Lucky 4,000

Hello Friends and Strangers!

We have reached another milestone here at the "Corner!" For anyone keeping track, by checking the site meter below, we reached "lucky" 4,000 (visits) early Wednesday morning! I know we said this just days ago, but THANKS again for continuing to read this blog. We get a "kick" out of watching the numbers rise! We will also start advertising here at the "Corner" very soon because, well, "Kev's" broke.

"Kev" has befriended two other more prolific "bloggers" who are also now stopping in as well, even "borrowing" (i.e., stealing) here and there which is fine by me! To you (you know who you are), it means a LOT that you stop in here! While I would LOVE to promote YOUR blog, I am afraid all of our readers would leave us for you, so you will remain nameless until THIS blog starts winning awards like yours!

I know you will all be as EXCITED about the following news as "Kev" was. Here is the official press release related to an item we "reported" on just days ago...

Stevie Nicks, one of the most successful female artists in rock history and the embodiment of the transcendent power of music is scheduled to release “CRYSTAL VISIONS…THE VERY BEST OF STEVIE NICKS" on March 27th, it was announced today by her label, Reprise Records. “CRYSTAL VISIONS” is an extraordinary collection of songs from the multi-platinum, multi-Grammy Award winning Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee's stunning three decade career as a solo artist and member of the legendary Fleetwood Mac.

"CRYSTAL VISIONS…THE VERY BEST OF STEVIE NICKS" opens with the original mastered studio version of "Edge of Seventeen" and closes with a live performance of the song recorded last summer with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. In between are Nicks’ classics including "Stand Back" "Leather and Lace" and "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" with Tom Petty. The CD also has a live version of "Landslide" (also recorded with the Melbourne Symphony), "Rhiannon" and a knock-out version of Led Zeppelin's "Rock and Roll". Other standouts are a haunting version of "Sorcerer" sung with Sheryl Crow which was originally on Nicks' "TROUBLE IN SHANGRI-LA" CD, the Deep Dish dance remix of "Dreams" and "Silver Springs" from the original master of "RUMOURS" - a cult favorite which appeared only as a b-side to "Go Your Own Way".

The DVD component of "CRYSTAL VISIONS" offers 13 Stevie videos with voice-over commentary by Nicks as well as an audio interview by journalist David Wild. Also included on the DVD is a never before seen Stevie Nicks home video which was filmed during the making of the five-times platinum "BELLA DONNA" album. The accompanying booklet will have original Stevie Nicks art work as well as photographs and personal pictures hand-picked by the artist representing a cross section of iconic pictures spanning her entire career.

This spring, Nicks will embark on a national concert tour with Chris Isaak. Dates for the tour will be announced shortly.
