Complete Studio Albums and Rarities was released on July 24, 2023, by Rhino Entertainment and was generally well received, with critics such as Stephen Thomas Erlewine stating that "While nothing here is especially compelling, the two discs function as a fascinating time capsule of the shifting fortunes of mainstream rock during the '80s and '90s." [2]
American Songwriter critic Alex Hopper stated that "The content is pretty much what one would expect. There aren't many surprises within the first part of this release. But, if anything, take it as an excuse to revisit Nicks' work", noting that "Many of the songs on Rarities are only available on this release. If you are a Nicks fan, you're likely starving for new content from the rock icon", he concludes by saying that "It's high time we brought Nicks back into focus and really meditated on what made her the symbol she is today. This release provides just the outlet." [5]
