I really didn’t get to enjoy Bella Donna. “But then my best friend, Robin, was diagnosed with leukaemia and that overshadowed everything. It was the most incredible time,” Nicks said in 1997. “When Bella Donna came out, Fleetwood Mac was at the top of their game. Fleetwood Mac, too, were riding high, with their first live album – simply titled Live – released at the end of 1980, mainly documenting the immense, lengthy Tusk album tour of 1979 to 1980. In 1981, Nicks released her debut solo album, Bella Donna, to great acclaim.
“She was the one person that knew me for the person I really was and not for the famous Stevie, and it was good to have someone who knew the real you besides just your mom and dad.” “She had been in my life since I was 14,” Nicks remembered in 1998. Robin Snyder Anderson was the dearest friend of Stevie Nicks. The backstory: “She was the one person that knew me for the person I really was” “For her brave, wild heart and the gypsies that remain.” The story of The Wild Heart is not one of songwriting, production and release it’s one of friendship, grief and the green shoots of emotional recovery. “This music is dedicated to Robin,” Stevie Nicks wrote on the back cover to her emotional second solo album, 1983’s The Wild Heart.
