I love the whole embedding of that Rumourspart: it's quite a complete sounding history of the "californian cocain trilogy-era" of the band.

Now I want that book about Tusk.

NOW!!!
See, I knew you would love it! I really liked that it didn't just say, Rumours was successful because of the romantic break-ups in the band, etc, etc, it described the record industry at the time and showed how radio and the marketing and promotion was a huge, huge reason for why it went on to do so well.
