Glad others appreciate Tusk as much as I do. It really was/is an exceptional album with it's own unique blend of songs. Tusk will always be close to my heart.

Default Rolling Stone Remembers Tusk

Flashback: Fleetwood Mac’s “Tusk” Turns 30
10/9/09, 5:03 pm EST


We just glanced over at the calendar and realized in just over a week Fleetwood Mac’s masterpiece Tusk will celebrate its 30th anniversary. Sure, Tusk wasn’t (and still isn’t) as successful or acclaimed as its predecessor Rumours, but this perfectly flawed double vinyl has a special place in our hearts, and to celebrate, this week’s Flashback features Stevie Nicks’ “Angel” as it appeared onstage in the 1979 Tusk documentary. As Stephen Holden wrote in his Rolling Stone review of Tusk, “In its fits and starts and restless changes of pace, Tusk inevitably recalls the Beatles’ White Album, the quirky rock jigsaw puzzle that showed the Fab Four at their artiest and most indecisive.”

Bonus Flashback: The USC Trojan Marching Band, the stars of “Tusk,” perform the title track live — without Mac — on the 1979 year-end episode of Solid Gold, hosted by Dionne Warwick and Glen Campbell. Watch it below:

Tusk is a wonderful album and I've enjoyed it since I received my first cassette of it (Feb. '88). I hope Lindsey has it on his mind today!

Just listened to the vinyl and then the Live album culled from the tour to back it.

As my fiance said, it sounds incredible. As well as relevant, poignant and well, just brilliant.

Bonne anniversaire!

Only SOME of the songs from the Live album were "culled from the tour to back it"...a few others were actually recorded in 1977 ("Dreams", "Rhiannon", "Don't Stop") and as early as 1975 ("Don't Let Me Down Again").

Still OK to enjoy it on the anniversary, right?

It's just that 14 is not usually a marker or milestone. Now, next year, when Time is 15 years old, the big ONE FIVE, you can bet the world will be all over the celebration!

You didn't celebrate YOUR 14th Birthday?? I did....HEAVILY!!! When you're a teenager, EVERY year is a milestone! Once you hit 21, THEN only the "5's & 0's" kick in.
