About Callie Pillar
Expertise
I know a great deal of information about Stevie Nicks and the different Fleetwood Mac members (personally and professionally), throughout all of the eras dating back to the mid-60`s. My expertise is mostly centered on Stevie, her co-workers and family members. For over 15 years, I have been acquainted with (and even worked for) various Nicks family members including her mom, dad, brother, aunt and uncle. I am a genealogist and astrologer and have done work on both the Nicks Family Tree and Stevie`s horoscope birth chart. I would love to help you out with anything that I can!

Experience
I became a fan in the late 1980's because of my aunt and her love of Stevie Nicks. I have been studying her and the band for over 16 years!

Fleetwood Mac - Songs of Rhiannon

Expert: Callie Pillar - 11/7/2004

Question
Stevie Nicks has said that there are ten songs she wrote that she calls the "songs of Rhinnon." Do you know the names of all ten, and whether some of them have been released? I think I might have read that "Planets of the Universe" was one of them.

Answer
Hi Richard,

I have searched many sites and have found the names of the 10 "Rhiannon" songs. There are actually 11 songs according to Stevie Nicks herself, but I could not find the 11th song. I will continue to look for it.

10 of the songs in the "Rhiannon" series are:

1. ANGEL - "Tusk" Album 1979
2. FOREST OF THE BLACK ROSES - Available Demo
3. GOODBYE BABY (THE TOWER) - "Say You Will" Album 2003
4. LADY FROM THE MOUNTAINS - Available Demo
5. LEGEND OF THE SONG OF THE BIRDS OF RHIANNON - Stevie Nicks said herself that this was the first song in the "Rhiannon" series. - Unavailable demo
6. MAKER OF THE BIRDS (THREE BIRDS OF RHIANNON) - Available Demo
7. PLANETS OF THE UNIVERSE (NO LIGHT) - "Trouble In Shangri-La" Album 2001
8. RHIANNON - "Fleetwood Mac" Album 1975
9. SORCERER - "Trouble In Shangri-La" Album 2001
10. STAY AWAY - Unavailable Demo

*****All of these songs were written in the early to mid 1970's during the Buckingham Nicks era, before Stevie joined Fleetwood Mac.
