 gwriter Stevie Nicks enjoyed phenomenal success not only as a solo artist 
 but also as a key member of Fleetwood Mac. Stephanie Lynn Nicks was born M
 ay 26\, 1948\, in Phoenix\, AZ\; the granddaughter of a frustrated country
  singer\, she began performing at the age of four\, and occasionally sang 
 at the tavern owned by her parents. Nicks started writing songs in her mid
 -teens\, and joined her first group\, the Changing Times\, while attending
  high school in California. \nDuring her senior year\, Nicks met fellow st
 udent Lindsey Buckingham\, with whom she formed the band Fritz along with 
 friends Javier Pacheco and Calvin Roper. Between 1968 and 1971\, the group
  became a popular attraction on the West Coast music scene\, opening for J
 imi Hendrix\, Janis Joplin\, and Creedence Clearwater Revival. Ultimately\
 , tensions arose over the amount of attention paid by fans to Nicks' pouty
  allure\, and after three years Fritz disbanded\; Buckingham remained her 
 partner\, however\, and soon became her lover as well. \n\nAfter moving to
  Los Angeles\, the duo recorded their 1973 debut LP\, Buckingham Nicks. De
 spite a cover which featured the couple nude\, the album flopped\; however
 \, it caught the attention of the members of Fleetwood Mac\, who invited B
 uckingham and Nicks to join their ranks in 1974. In quick time\, the revit
 alized group achieved unparalleled success: after the LP Fleetwood Mac top
 ped the charts in 1975\, they recorded 1977's Rumours\, which sold over 17
  million copies and stood for several years as the best-selling album of a
 ll time. \n\nMajor hit singles like 'Dreams' and 'Rhiannon' made Nicks a f
 ocal point of Fleetwood Mac\, and in 1981 she took time off from the group
  to record her solo debut\, Bella Donna\, which hit number one on the stre
 ngth of the Top 20 hits 'Stop Draggin' My Heart Around' (a duet with Tom P
 etty & the Heartbreakers)\, 'Leather and Lace' (a duet with Don Henley)\, 
 and 'Edge of Seventeen (Just Like the White Winged Dove).' After a return 
 to Fleetwood Mac for the 1982 album Mirage (which featured her hit 'Gypsy'
 )\, Nicks released her second solo effort\, The Wild Heart\, highlighted b
 y the Top Five smash 'Stand Back.' Rock a Little\, which featured the sing
 le 'Talk to Me\,' followed in 1985. \n\nAfter a long hiatus (during which 
 time Nicks was treated for a chemical dependency problem)\, Fleetwood Mac 
 reunited for the album Tango in the Night\; The Other Side of the Mirror\,
  Nicks' first solo record in four years\, followed in 1989. After a series
  of lineup changes and dropping sales figures\, she left Fleetwood Mac in 
 1993 and issued Street Angel a year later. In 1997\, she rejoined the reun
 ited Fleetwood Mac on tour and on the album The Dance. In 1998 Nicks\, alo
 ng with her Fleetwood Mac bandmates\, was inducted into the Rock and Roll 
 Hall of Fame\, the same year that her three-disc Enchanted box set landed 
 in stores. Nicks returned to the studio in 2001 with friends Macy Gray\, S
 arah McLachlan\, Sheryl Crow\, and Dixie Chick Natalie Maines for the solo
  album Trouble in Shangri-La\, and again in 2003 for the Fleetwood Mac reu
 nion album Say You Will. Reprise released the CD/DVD Crystal Visions: The 
 Very Best of Stevie Nicks in 2007. ~ Jason Ankeny\, All Music Guide\n\nSta
