Storms Book by Carol Ann Harris
Is it coincidental that LB will end his touring on June 30 and this book comes out on July1?
From Chicagoreviewpress http://images.google.com/imgres?imgu...%3Den%26sa%3DG Storms My Life with Lindsey Buckingham and Fleetwood Mac Carol Ann Harris (Author) A consummate insider as the girlfriend of Lindsey Buckingham, Fleetwood Mac singer and guitarist, Carol Ann Harris leads fans into the very heart of the band’s storms between 1976 and 1984. From interactions between the band and other stars—Mick Jagger, Eric Clapton, and Dennis Wilson—to the chaotic animosity between band members, this memoir combines the sensational account of some of the world’s most famous musicians with a thrilling love story. Illustrated with never-before-seen photographs, the parties, fights, drug use, shenanigans, and sex lives of Fleetwood Mac are presented in intimate detail. With the exception of one brief interview, Carol Ann Harris has never before spoken about her time with Fleetwood Mac. Extras: Author Bio: Carol Ann Harris (Author) Pub Date: Jul 01, 2007 |

Oh rats!! He won't be able to sign the odd copy on tour now.
Bet he'd be sorry to miss those. (would have made a nice change from all those OOTC and GI, BN Cd's and LPs, he probabaly signs)

I admit...I pre-ordered it from Amazon. (Inquiring minds want to know, and I am one of them.) Be it fact or fiction...

Here is a review I found in Publishers Weekly. Looks like it is quite a page turner
Storms: My Life with Lindsay Buckingham and Fleetwood Mac Carol Ann Harris. Chicago Review, $24.95 (400p) ISBN 978-1-55652-660-2 This is a fascinating if overlong look at the megasuccess of Fleetwood Mac in the mid-1970s, after the former British blues band recorded the laid-back rock songs of guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and singer Stevie Nicks that made the album Rumours one of the most popular of its era. While working at the band's recording studio, Harris, currently a music business costume designer, became Buckingham's girlfriend and constant companion from 1976 through 1984, and she gives a detailed look-more so than drummer and original member Mick Fleetwood's biography-at this already well-chronicled story of how the success of Rumours provided the income for extravagant cocaine-fueled excesses before, during and after performances. Harris too often uses clichés, such as her view of the band's "beautiful insanity." But she does candidly recount Buckingham's rage and his repeated physical assaults on her. Along the way, she offers great descriptions of the band's recording sessions, especially her account of Buckingham's desire to "create something new, something completely" different for Tusk, the more experimental (and less profitable) follow-up to Rumours. (July) |

It will suck, as whatever she says will go down as fact in FM history. (among some fans) No one will look at her motivations. The fact she would even write a book about LB is lame but it is pretty obvious that the more smut and sex she includes, the better it will sell. Pathetic and I won't buy it.

Lindsey never assaulted Carol. He was just spreading his intense genius in a manner more physically assertive than a stupid prole like Ms. Harris could ever understand. Duh.

Let Ms. Harris earn a few quick bucks and 15 minutes of fame. Whatever. |

In the end though, no one really gives a rat's a$$ in the big popular culture picture about LB. So, IMO, the less attention drawn to this book the better as it likely will sell poorly beased on LB's relative complete lack of significant relevance in the pop culture world. As for her writing the book - they were her experiences and are a commodity. So, I do not fault her for that. |

I just do not get why people are loathe to admit that. I like LB and think he is a genius. He also was a helluva nice guy when I met him. His temper to others does not take away from that |

I don't even care if what she says is true or not, I am not arguing that here, I am just saying it's tacky. |
