Part II of the conversations is absurdly long. Here's part of it. Excuse the misspellings of names and such.

Conversation Tapes Part II 6:38

S. Nicks – “An air force base, and she was riveting nails in an airplane.”
C. McVie – “Why did she stick her hair up?”
S. Nicks – “Well, usually she had it up, and this day it came down. And it got part of it stuck and so they had to cut like this much.”
C. McVie – “What happened to that guy that had all his hair severed off by something?”
M. Fleetwood – “Oh…Shawn Phillips.”
C. McVie – “Shawn Phillips…yeah.”
M. Fleetwood – “On a yacht. Got it caught in a winch.”
C. McVie – “He ended up with a…”
S. Nicks – “In a circle…you mean like this type of a thing?”
C. McVie – “He ended up with a short back and sides that he did not want.”
S. Nicks – “Oh no…Oh no.”
M. Fleetwood – “He had very long blonde hair that Shawn Phillips (S. Nicks – “Oh…poor thing.”) right down past his bottom.
C. McVie – “It was really…”
S. Nicks – “Ooh…what did he do? That’s a familiar name.”
M. Fleetwood – “Shawn Phillips.”
C. McVie – “I think he was on a boat or something.”
S. Nicks – “What does he do? I don’t…”
M. Fleetwood – “not folk singery. J.C., would you care to explain?”
S. Nicks – “J.C.”
C. McVie – “Would you care to explain precisely…”
M. Fleetwood – “Shawn Phillips…Jerry Levine used to go ‘round with.”
J.C. – “Shawn Phillips was a…”
S. Nicks – “Was...don’t say was. Was is a good word.”
M. Fleetwood – “Is.”
J.C. is explaining, but it’s too muffled for my ears.
C. McVie – “Well, he still is, but he hasn’t got any hair.”
M. Fleetwood – “He lives in Italy.”
S. Nicks – “Those are horrible shoes.”
M. Fleetwood – “Aren’t they nice?”
S. Nicks – “No, they’re horrible.”
J.C. is still explaining.
C. McVie – “I thought that we were in the unhappy…”
S. Nicks – “Chris, this is why I came to this car. I couldn’t stand…”
M. Fleetwood – “You keep quiet over there. J.C.”
S. Nicks (whispering) – “Chrissy…”
C. McVie – “No one’s that interested.”
S. Nicks (still whispering) – “Chrissy…”
S. Nicks – “I couldn’t let you go in this car by yourself…unhappy. So I came in this car so that you would be cheered up not that I'm doing a thrilling job but…at least, you know, we’re smiling.
C. McVie – “Oh great. Oh fine.”
S. Nicks – “You just keep your mouth shut about your unhappiness. She's happy. I’m happy. We're happy. At least, the girls are happy.”
C. McVie – “The girls are...I’m…I’m halfway to being drunk.”
S. Nicks – “Chris, it's okay because I’m trying to catch up with you, and I knew you'd share your drink with me. I always steal her drink onstage. She looks at me as I go. She goes...”
C. McVie – “I know. I say…”
S. Nicks – “She goes, ‘Well, there it goes once again.”
C. McVie – “That champagne is about all you’ll get out of me. I'm used to it.”
M. Fleetwood - “Did you really go and have photographs taken in the hall last night or was I imagining?”
S. Nicks – “I never left my room last night. I watched a movie.”
M. Fleetwood – “J.C., what was that?”
J.C. – “Didn't you say you were going to go downstairs with your sequined outfit on and have photographs taken?”
S. Nicks – “I never left my room last night. I watched...you know what I did last night...what did I do last night?”
M. Fleetwood – “Stevie got very aggressive on the phone.”
J.C. – “You said get Dwayne up...”
S. Nicks – “No, I called you up.”
M. Fleetwood – “No, you didn't call me up.”
S. Nicks- “I did call you up!”
M. Fleetwood – “No, you called J.C. up to talk to Dwayne.”
S. Nicks – “You're kidding me.”
S. Nicks – “No, I did call you up late.”
M. Fleetwood – “No, no. Let me recap.”
S. Nicks – “No, I did call you up late and ask you where he was 'cause I wanted to talk to him.”
C. McVie – “I got to tell you what Sam Emerson did. Did you hear what Sam Emerson did?”
M. Fleetwood – “Well, I can imagine.”
C. McVie – “Well, aside from being...”
S. Nicks – “Sam...what else could he be?”
C. McVie – “Well, Sam you know...he left my room at five or si--..five in the morning.
Mick clears his throat.
S. Nicks – “Hmm-mmm...”
C. McVie – “There were several other people there.”
S. Nicks – “Yeah really. Why wasn't I there?”
C. McVie – “I don't know why you weren't there. I think you were...”
S. Nicks – “I wish you had called me up. I was bored stiff.”
C. McVie – “I think you were on the bord…border of suicide or something.”
S. Nicks – “I was laying in my bed watching television.”
C. McVie - “Anyway, he goes outta my room to his own room.”
M. Fleetwood– “Really?”
C. McVie – “Lays down on---this is what he told me the next morning...He was so loaded that night.”
M. Fleetwood – “Got a hard on.”
C. McVie – “No, Mick.”
S. Nicks – “Oh, shut up.”
