Can you imagine if Rumours was a double album? OMG
The band had such incredible demos especially Stevie stuff like Sleeping Angel. No wonder the double album came to mind. You must rewind time to the mid to late 70s. Double albums were fairly common. When Silver Springs is your left over you know you have incredible songs.
Makes you wonder IF the Mac put out a similar Rumours album what would have happened. It may not sold like Rumours but would have sold at least 10 million. I love Tusk but I always hate Tusk for the wrong reasons. It changed the band forever. Post Tusk the band was always chasing radio singles and pop success which is what Tusk was against. The counter era post Tusk hurt creativity IMHO. Tusk also facilitated the solo albums. Mick no longer managed the band and Irving took over Stevie, etc. Because Tusk was considered a failure (please dont flame me, I said CONSIDERED), it changed things forever. Thats what irks me about Tusk.
