Kenny Loggins’ 1978 sophomore release, Nightwatch, featured Nicks’ vocals on the hit “Whenever I Call You Friend.” Their duet on this album is arguably one of ’70s soft rock’s greatest collaborations.
Walter Egan’s debut, the 1977 released Fundamental Roll, and its follow-up, 1978 album Not Shy, were co-produced by Nick’s musical and romantic partner Lindsey Buckingham. Nicks, in turn, lent her vocals to the background of both albums.
Warren Zevon’s self-titled hit album also saw assistance from Nicks. Her vocals can be heard on the tracks, “Mohammed’s Radio” and “Join Me in L.A.” The album also featured Buckingham, Jackson Browne, Glenn Frey, Bonnie Raitt, and more stars in the mix.
Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers’ album Hard Promisesfeatured Nicks on backing vocals for the songs “Insider” and “You Can Still Change Your Mind.” Nicks and Tom Petty were a dream team, producing a number of collaborations from their musical friendship.
On Todd Rundgren’s live album Back to the Bars, Nicks’ vocals can be heard on the Rundgren classic “Hello It’s Me.” Guests on the album include Rick Derringer, Daryl Hall, and John Oates, alongside Nicks.
Sheryl Crow’s 2002 release, C’mon C’mon, is riddled with stars with the voices of Liz Phair, Lenny Kravitz, and even Gwyneth Paltrow gracing some songs. Nicks’ vocal stylings, however, stand out among the bunch, appearing on the title track and “Diamond Road.” Nicks can also be heard on Crow’s 2019 album, Threads.

Walter Egan (born July 12, 1948) is an American rock musician, best known for his 1978 gold status hit single "Magnet and Steel" from his second album release, Not Shy, produced by Egan, Lindsey Buckingham and Richard Dashut.
While working on Tusk, Nicks sang backup on virtually every track of Not Shy, recorded by musician Walter Egan, a friend of both Nicks and Buckingham. " Magnet and Steel ", inspired by Nicks, prominently featured her backup vocals and became a hit single on the Billboard Hot 100 chart during the summer of 1978. [54]
