Buckingham Nicks

So I'm sure you have had discussions about this before but I have just heard some of the Buckingham Nicks album and I have to say that it is amazing! The four tracks I have heard are Stephanie which really shows off Lindsay's guitar skills!! Frozen Love is my new song all 7 minutes of that song. The harmonies are simply brilliant. Crying in the Night is classic Stevie Nicks and I'm surprised it didn't show up somewhere on a Fleetwood Mac album. Don't Let Me Down Again is great and I understand why they included it on the live album. The only thing I'm wondering is why the heck didn't this album sell better than it did?

Who knows? Polydor probably didn't promote it...

I love this album, so great.

Really interesting and really brings to light the influence that Stevie & Lindsey had on FM's sound.

Exactly!! Listening to the album you can almost hear the Rumours era of FM being formed

Just for yuks

...take Christine's songs from Heroes Are Hard To Find (except "Bad Loser") and mix them in with the Buckingham Nicks album.

(which is what I did not too long after I first read that Buckingham Nicks had joined Fleetwood Mac...long before the '75 album came out.)

Ok, here, get those iPods out and try this running order as your playlist:

Don't Let Me Down Again
Prove Your Love
Long Distance Winner
Stephanie
Races Are Run
Lola (My Love)

Heroes Are Hard To Find
Crying In The Night
Without A Leg To Stand On
Come A Little Bit Closer
Frozen Love

Right?

YES! Although I might bump up Heroes to before Lola.

I always viewed Stephanie as sort of an intro to Without a Leg to Stand On

Yes I agree...I wasn't expecting it to be horrible but certainly not this good either! Lindsey and Stevie's voices sound magical together! Thanks for the link...checking it out right now
