    Stevie Nicks credits the "power of music" for helping her heal after a shoulder injury

    The 77-year-old singer/songwriter had to postpone a string of tour dates over the summer after fracturing her shoulder and during her recovery, she turned to "younger music" from artists such as The Midnight, The White Kites and Night Traveler.


    She told People magazine: "I'm all over the internet. I listen to a lot of current bands.

    "And all through my recovery, I've listened.

    "That's the one thing that I have done physically through this recovery, is to really listen to all this younger music that I love. And when I wasn't feeling well at all, it just carried me on a cloud through this whole thing...

    "Just to lay in bed and stare at the ceiling is not my idea of a good time. That kept me dancing to a point, just kind of Snoop Dogging around my place, because you can be pretty beat-up, and you can still dance if inspirational music comes on.

    "The power of music to heal you is amazing. If I didn't have those tapes, I don't know what I would have done."

    Stevie uses the radio functions on platforms such as Pandora and Spotify, notes down the tracks she likes and then makes her own tapes.

    She said: "All my tapes are really curated by me. I'm not high-tech at all.

    "I push the thumbs-up. Love this. Don't love that. Love this."

    As well as new artists, the Edge of Seventeen hitmaker has also been revisiting the 1973 eponymous Buckingham Nicks album, which she recorded with former partner and bandmate Lindsey Buckingham after they re-released the record in September.

    And Stevie has been very impressed by the LP.

    She said: "If you can ever just sit in a big room with somebody who has a great stereo or whatever you want to call it, great speakers, or lives next door to a studio, just go in and listen to it, because you'll hear stuff in Buckingham Nicks that none of us have heard since that record came out, because it was only pressed at one time and went out that one time..

    "I had some people go, 'I put it on in my house stereo that goes all over, and I walk all over the house and just listen to it, and it's like I'm in a huge studio listening to you guys make this record.'

    "I don't even have a copy, so it's like, when you listen to this, it's like you're in the studio with us.

    "And there are parts, vocal parts, music parts that I haven't heard in so long that I'm, like, 'Wow. I would join that band.' "
