We’re remembering Fleetwood Mac star, Stevie Nicks’ debut solo opus Bella Donna, recorded with legendary producer, Jimmy Iovine and released in 1981.

Legendary Fleetwood Mac singer-songwriter Stevie Nicks joined producer Jimmy Iovine to begin recording her solo debut, Bella Donna, following the release of the Mac's Tusk and its subsequent tour. Nicks' 1981 collection was quickly certified platinum thanks to classics like Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around (with Tom Petty), Edge Of Seventeen and Leather And Lace (with Don Henley). Along with Heartbreakers and Eagles, the album features guest turns from Donald “Duck” Dunn of Booker T. & The MGs and Roy Bittan of the E Street Band - though Stevie's distinctive voice and persona are never upstaged. 

Let's remember those classic singles below!
