Bella Donna - Stevie Nicks

... BELLA ITALIA Formerly known as Bella Pasta My first visit to a Bella Italia was a couple of weeks after returning from a holiday at Lake Como.

However in 1981 Stevie, whilst still remaining a member of The Mac, she released a solo album entitled 'Bella Donna' spawning hits such as the anthemic 'Edge Of Seventeen', 'Stop Draggin' My Heart Around' and the jaunty 'Think About It'. After the huge success of the album which sold five times platinum and made the billboard no.1 Stevie took a break from the solo limelight and returned to work with Fleetwood Mac.
