While FM Live 80 was mainly taken from the Tusk Tour, I'm a little confused on what the record company was trying to do here.

IF Tusk was a "bomb" in regards to sales...I suppose relative to the sales of Rumours...why would they want to release another double album so closely on the heels of this one?! Was it the fact that they were trying to put the Rumours FM back on the front burner....more or less saying that the Tusk FM was OVER? After all, the only songs from Tusk were Sara, Over & Over, and Not That Funny. Noticeabley absent was Tusk, the first single and a "hit" from the record. Also, as Keith pointed out, where was Stevie's Sisters Of The Moon(another single from the album)? To me the record company was trying to convey the strength of FM, not only by putting most of the White Album and Rumours songs on the record as a reminder of their mass appeal, but also by listing their Tusk World Tour itinerary and its' mammoth attendance records.

Does anyone know if Live 80 even went platinum?
