“When Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham released Buckingham Nicks in 1973, they were just a couple of nobodies. Two hippie kids lost in L.A., doing an unfashionable folk-rock flower-child record. Nobody bought it. Nobody cared. Some might have heard it as a promising debut, others as a flop. But it’s safe to say that nobody heard it and said, “Not only are these two of the planet’s greatest songw”

“Upon its release in 1977, Rumours, now reissued as a 4xCD/DVD/LP box set featuring live recordings, alternate mixes, and studio outtakes, became the fastest selling LP of all time, moving 800,000 copies per week at its height. Its success made Fleetwood Mac a cultural phenomenon and also set a template for pop with a gleaming surface that has something complicated, desperate, and dark resonating underneath.”

“Fleetwood Mac are a great band who have never had a great compilation. The pinnacle of their achievements is the three albums they released between 1975 and 1979: Fleetwood Mac and Rumours, two immaculate pop records about sexual infidelity and cocaine, and Tusk, a weird, sprawling masterpiece.

Tusk (Deluxe Edition)

9.0

“While the music scenes of England, New York City and scattered bohemian enclaves the world over embraced punk's do-it-yourself radicalization in the late Seventies, nearly every superstar of sunny southern California kept on making smooth and glossy soft rock as if Joey Ramone and Johnny Rotten had never happened.

“What I consider to be the most iconic piece in Fleetwood Mac’s discography. You can feel the relationship tension in every song; it perfectly encapsulates the ups and downs of those relationships in both lyric and composition. A genuinely timeless album, still easy to listen to and jam to in today’s day and age. I pray every person under the age of 25 find this album at least once in their musical journey. It’s such a life-changer.”
