Stevie Nicks Original Recording of “Dreams” Was Very Different From The Version We All Know
A song that Nicks wrote for the ‘Buckingham/Nicks’ album that didn’t make the cut, it had a strange road to ‘Rumours.’ When the band realized that ‘Silver Springs’ wouldn’t fit on the album, they decided to replace it with this song. They actually recorded it without Nicks’ knowledge, with Buckingham on lead vocals. They later told Nicks and she added her vocals.
A Dream Show
Stevie Nicks and Billy Joel are touring together for the first time ever and they are selling out everywhere. They will be live at Gillette Stadium this September 23rd and that is one show that should be on any fan’s “bucket list”
New dates for Stevie solo
Stevie Nicks announced new tour dates this week. Did you know her song “Dreams” with Fleetwood Mac was their only #1 song?
Take a listen to how the song could’ve sounded. This is an earlier take while they were working on what would become their Grammy Award winning “Rumours” album.

The Original Dream
Bob is a native New Englander, growing up (sorta) in Maine where his love for radio started at a young age. While in high school he hosted radio shows on a local radio station, and he has never looked back.
Bob joined the US Navy and served onboard the Sixth Fleet Flagship as a radio and TV host. After serving for 3 years, it was off to Emerson College in Boston. Bob hosted shows in Boston on WMEX, WVBF and WSSH in the 80’s and 90’s before heading to radio stations in Raleigh, NC, Manchester, NH, and New York City.
Bob has been married for almost 25 years to Carolyn, a Woburn gal and they have 3 daughters, Nicole, Taylor, and Bridget. Bob and Carolyn are proud first-time grandparents to baby Caroline, who they plan to spoil every chance they get!
“I started my career in New England and could not be happier to come back to Boston where I can root for all the Boston sports teams and eat lots of lobster rolls and clam chowder (okay not lots)… It is an honor to host the WROR morning show with LBF and wake up the World’s Greatest City!” Bob writes about recipes and restaurants, pop culture and trending topics.
