Stevie Nicks celebrated her 75th birthday and her success in the music industry. Here's a look at her life in the industry and why she was named the 'Queen of Rock and Roll.'
Nicks is a titan in the world of rock n' roll, at one point being named the"Reigning Queen of Rock and Roll" by Rolling Stone, as well as making the list of 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time and 100 Greatest Singers of All Time, for both her solo career and for her time with Fleetwood Mac.
After four years together, the band broke up, leading Nicks and Buckingham to start their duo, Buckingham Nicks. The two were broke, but after receiving a rather large inheritance check, they were able to record a demo album. Nicks' determination to work hard to make her dreams come true stemmed from lessons she learned from her mom.
Nicks' first album with the band,"Fleetwood Mac," was a massive success. It featured"Rhiannon" and"Landslide," the former going on to find itself on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. At the height of her fame with Fleetwood Mac, Nicks was in a relationship with the Eagles singer Don Henley and chose to have an abortion after she got pregnant. Nicks credits the success of the band, with her decision not to have any children.
Nicks' last album with the band in the 90s was"Behind the Mask," for which she wrote four of the songs, including"Love is Dangerous,""Affairs of the Heart,""Freedom" and"The Second Time." Her first solo album,"Bella Donna," was released in 1981 and reached number one on the Billboard Top 200, reaching platinum status and with four singles making the Billboard Top 100. The singles include"Stop Draggin' My Heart Around,""Leather and Lace,""After the Glitter Fades" and"Edge of Seventeen."
"I read that somewhere in Phoenix and thought I would use that in this song. The dove became exciting and sad and tragic and incredibly dramatic," Nicks added."Every time I sing this song I have that ability to go back to that two-month period where it all came down. I've never changed it, and I can't imagine ending my show with any other song. It's such a strong, private moment that I share in this song.
A single off"Trouble in Shangri-La" earned her a Grammy Award nomination for best female rock vocal performance. She went on to record two more solo albums,"In Your Dreams" and"24 Karat Gold: Songs from the Vault."Fleetwood Mac reunited in 1996, and then again in 2003 to record the album"Say You Will."
