Stevie Nicks | Bella Donna (Ultradisc One-Step & SACD)
Stevie Nicks had a lot to prove when she first went solo and recorded “Bella Donna.” Although she had enjoyed huge success with Fleetwood Mac, the singer was often overshadowed by the other band members – the group's approach meant that she was unable to really establish herself as a songwriter. This was set to change for good with “Bella Donna”: The public enthusiastically received her solo debut and the album rose to number one on the charts and sold over four million copies! The warm, expansive, rich soundscapes that convey a live feeling and the chemistry between the musicians involved make “Bella Donna” a very personal, outstanding album. In fact, Nicks' voice on this album is among the best performances of her career. She puts her heart into every word, uses her distinctive raspy voice with precision and explores a wide range with apparent ease.
The numbered double LP, strictly limited to 4,000 copies, was pressed at Fidelity Record Pressing in California, using the superior UltraDisc One-Step process on 180-gram vinyl (45 RPM). The records are housed in foil-embossed sleeves, and the luxurious slipcase features faithful reproductions of the original artwork, underscoring the sonic splendor of the reissue: enormous realism and thrilling presence with unbridled clarity, dynamics, and attention to detail. The MoFi One-Step version of “Bella Donna” is not only an absolute collector's item for fans of Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac – the LP box set simply belongs in every well-stocked pop-rock collection!
The strictly numbered Hybrid SACD comes in a high-quality mini LP-style gatefold sleeve.
