Well they were also helping Walter Egan out on his album, Not Shy and he wanted to cut SOTM, but LB said no they were saving it for Stevie for the new FM album. According to Egan it was in the summer, Lindsey told him to go home and write another song and he came up with Hot Summer Nights.

Edit: According to Rob Trucks book 33 1/3rd Tusk, "The recording of Tusk begins in Studio D at the Village Recorder in May of 1977, three months before Rumours tour dates finally grind to a halt."

I don't know if this is accurate.
