guarantee she could craft the same kind of pop-rock magic without the help of the Mac's guiding musical force, Lindsey Buckingham. As such, Bella Donna found her emerging surprisingly strongly as a solo talent. Part of the credit goes to Tom Petty, who gave her an excellent song in "Stop Dragging My Heart Around" (and duets with her on it). But other high points are Nicks's own creations, including the urgently rocking "Edge of Seventeen" and the country-tinged ballad "Leather and Lace" (a duet with Don Henley). A few tunes here are forgettable, but overall Nicks started her solo career on a high note. --Peter Blackstock

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. My 10 year old son was very impressed that he could use his newly aquired snatches of Italian as the waitress greeted us in Italian, he spent the meal throwing in what few words and phrases he had picked up in Italy!!
The restaurant we visited was in Lancaster, our home town, and at that time I didn't realise that it was part of a chain.
I must say that we enjoyed our meal and found the prices reasonable, consequently we have returned several times since. It is on all of these visits that I base this review.
RESTAURANT.......Our local Bella Italia is on the corner of Church Street, Lancaster, and is like a little piece of Italy in the midst of Lancashire. It ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Bella Pasta
The album ‘Wild Hearts’, has got some of her classic songs such as, ‘Stand Back’, ‘Nothing ever changes’, and ‘If anyone falls’.
A stranger to Stevie’s music will probably think that she has a frog in her throat and she needs to Hhhmmm to clear it, but her unique sound is what made her successful solo artist as well as a Fleetwood Mac band member.
She began her solo career in 1981, I guess one of her highlights would be getting asked by President Clinton to perform ‘Don’t Stop’ with Fleetwood Mac, at his inauguration celebration in 1993
She has such an extraordinary voice it’s not to get addicted to her!
Tracks on the album are:
Wild Heart
If Anyone Falls
Gate And Garden
Enchanted
Nightbird
Stand Back
I Will Run To You
Nothing Ever ...
Advantages: A classic album with Stevie at her very best... Disadvantages: None...
* iNTRODUCTION TO STEVIENICKs *
Stephanie Lynn 'Stevie' Nicks is an American singer/songwriter who you'll probably know as being the lead singer for many of Fleetwood Mac songs including the infamous 'Dreams', 'Gypsy', 'Sara', and 'Gold Dust Woman'. However in 1981 Stevie, whilst still remaining a member of The Mac, she released a solo album entitled 'BellaDonna' 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.
However, Stevie's solo fans clamoured for more so in 1983, with the help of artists such as Tom Petty who made BellaDonna such a success Stevie released 'The Wild Heart ...
