SYW in Columbia House and BMG catalogs

[Livia]

You be the judge on which one is more accurate:

BMG:

On the outside of the mailer and in the catalog - it says, "Electrifying, panoramic studio reunion of Stevie, Lindsey, Mick & John. Peacekeeper, Silver Girl, Bleed To Love Her, Illume, Say You Will, Miranda , etc." It's $17.98.

Columbia House:

"REUNION ALBUM! SAY YOU WILL - 100+ million CDs sold! Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham unite on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame honoree's first all-original album featuring both stars since '87 - and first album in 6 years. Peacekeeper; Steal Your Heart Away and guest Sheryl Crow prove they still make hits that define moments." It's $18.98. There's a pic too, it's a cut and paste of just their heads from that same promo pic of them standing against the wall, outside. Except Mick is behind Stevie and Lindsey, and John is in front of them.

The person who wrote the Columbia House description must have been high when they wrote this. How else can you explain the ridiculous, way off base stuff that is written up there. (1) This isn't the reunion album. The Dance was considered the "reunion" album. (2) I wish 100 million + CDs of Say You Will had been solded, but that isn't accurate either. It has sold around 800,000 copies. That is pretty funny! You think they could find someone at Columbia House who knew something about them or could research their facts first.

They were probably talking about the band's total CD sales, of which SYW is only a portion, along with all the previous FM CDs.

Well they're right...and wrong. I think the 100+ million tagline was referring to the overall amount of records the Mac has sold worldwide.

And lets face it...ANYTIME Fleetwood Mac does a record, its a reunion.

Yep, as far as the press is concerned, they've been having "reunions" since 1982!
