LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM TALKS NEW FLEETWOOD MAC ALBUM

Posted on November 4, 2012 by admin

Guitarist Lindsey Buckingham has told Rolling Stone that he would like to record a new Fleetwood Mac album.

Buckingham said that he and other members of the band had already begun work on material for a new record: “…about six, seven months ago, John [McVie] and Mick [Fleetwood] were over here and we actually cut some tracks, and we did enough for maybe half an album.”

However, Buckingham explained that the album, which would be Fleetwood Mac’s first since 2003s ‘Say You Will,’ was on the backburner for now: “…you gotta get [vocalist] Stevie [Nicks] on board with that, and at the time, she was really quite caught up in what she was doing. But I would love to do that because John and Mick were playing their asses off.”

Fleetwood Mac recently announced that they would be reuniting for a tour next April. Buckingham revealed that the band would begin rehearsals early next year: “Fleetwood Mac is gonna start rehearsing probably the beginning of February and I’m actually looking forward to it. I miss those guys.”

He added that he fulfilled his personal musical goals in his time away from the band: “The last eight or nine years, I’ve had a lot of growth. I sort of caught up on the need to explore the more esoteric side of the palette.”
