Next week on October 7, Stevie Nicks releases 24 Karat Gold: Songs from the Vault, a collection of songs written and recorded by her throughout the 70s and 80s. This is significant because of two reasons: 1.) Stevie Nicks kicks ass, and 2.) this isn’t just new Steve Nicks music; most of it is new Stevie Nicks music from her prime, the era of Bella Donna and Wild Heart and The Video. Below is “Mabel Normand,” the newest song from the record, which premiered over at Huffington Post. This new track follows up the previous releases from the record, “The Dealer” and “Lady.” In true Stevie Nicks form, the lyrics of this song are confessional and forward, focusing on drug addiction and what it can do to you, with the thematic heaviness wrapped in a timeless sound. Stream it below.
