In July 1981, Stevie Nicks already was in arguably America’s most popular band, Fleetwood Mac, but her first solo album then, “Bella Donna”, took her career to another level entirely, a fact that was by no means guaranteed and which came at some cost.

July 1991’s “Into the Great Wide Open”, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ first post-Traveling Wilburys/”Full Moon Fever” effort with his own band.

Should’ve had a drink and forgot about it!’ ,,.It’s very hard living your life as we have in tour buses and airplanes for all of this time… And you do kind of realize that ,’ Gee, twenty more and I’m outta here!’ So you do take stock of that, you do.”
Bryan Adams was startled to find his impressive second album You Want It, You Got It was about to mark a significant anniversary in July.
