Stevie Nicks Releases New Song The Dealer

(hennemusic) Stevie Nicks is premiering a new single, "The Dealer", as the lead track from her upcoming solo album, "24 Karat Gold - Songs From the Vault." Nicks initially wrote and recorded "The Dealer" with Fleetwood Mac in the late 70s when the band was working on their 1979 album, "Tusk."

Due October 7th, "24 Karat Gold - Songs From the Vault" features a collection of lost and stray songs that Nicks has written and recorded through the years, but never made it onto an album.

"I used to make cassettes of my songs and hand them out," Stevie explains. "But to know that these songs have finally been recorded with the same love they were originally created is joyous for me. I picked 12 songs from about 40 demos made from '69 - '87 and one each from 94 and 95. These songs are all about love and heartbreak -- how to pick up the pieces -- how to keep moving... I'm really chronicling love from the very beginning."

"When you write a song and it doesn't go on a record, it floats around in your life for years," she added. "I took myself back to the time when these songs were written... Sometimes I can't remember what happened yesterday but I remember so well what happened through the whole period of time that I wrote these songs. You think about them and go over them and they live inside of you until they becomes part of your world. These songs are now 24 Karat Gold."
