Stevie Nicks
Rock a Little
Release Date: 1985
Running Time: 44:54
Label: Modern
Rating:

In contrast to the earthy, rootsy qualities of Bella Donna, Stevie Nicks took a slicker, more high-tech approach on her third solo album, Rock a Little. But for all its glossiness, this pop/rock CD comes across as sincere and heartfelt rather than formulaic or contrived. From the catchy "I Can't Wait" to the intense "No Spoken Word" to the dark "The Nightmare," everything on Rock a Little is as honest as it is memorable. Assisting Jimmy Iovine and Rick Nowels with the production, Nicks wisely sees to it that technology adds to her songs instead of smothering or overpowering them. Alex Henderson, All Music Guide

I like this album, tho she was clearly getting a little too crazy at this point with the drugs...which comes out in this album. It wasn't nearly as strong as Bella Donna or The Wild Heart. Tracks like "I Can't Wait," "No Spoken Word," and the fans' favorite "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You" are the standout cuts here. "Talk To Me" is a classic from this album, tho it's never really been one of my favorites. Jimmy Iovine, who was the mastermind behind the first two solo albums, walked out during the recording of this album, which caused a lot of the magic to disappear. You can tell a huge difference between the first two solo albums and Rock A Little. All in all tho, a good classic from Stevie.
