Enchanted (or The Enchanted Works of Stevie Nicks) is a three-disc box set of material by American singer-songwriter and Fleetwood Mac vocalist Stevie Nicks, which encompasses her solo career from Bella Donna (1981) to Street Angel (1994) and beyond.

Contents

The box set contains rare B-sides, unreleased live recordings, demos, songs from soundtracks, a track from the album Buckingham Nicks (1973), outtakes from the Bella Donna and Rock a Little sessions, and a new piano recording of the Nicks-penned Fleetwood Mac song, "Rhiannon". Some previously released tracks are also in noticeably longer versions, or alternative remixes.

The set was released on April 28, 1998, and peaked at #85 on the Billboard 200 Albums chart. Enchanted was certified Gold by the RIAA on April 7, 1999, for shipments of over 166,000 copies. Two singles were released, "Reconsider Me" (a deleted track from the album Rock a Little (1985)) and "Enchanted" which made its first appearance on the album The Wild Heart (1983).

It was mastered using HDCD technology and, although it is unmarked, playing the album in a CD player able to decode HDCD will give superior sound quality.
