Ever notice?

[SteveMacD]

Mick was topless on the Heroes Are Hard To Find cover and Lindsey and Stevie were topless on the Buckingham Nicks cover, their last projects before the two groups merged?

[SteveMacD]

Buckingham Nicks were popular in a city called Birmingham and Christine was from a city called Birmingham?

[DownOnRodeo]

That the most famous line from their only US number 1 single ("thunder only happens when it's raining") is patently false?

[DownOnRodeo]

That there are nine tracks by Lindsey and Stevie, almost exactly equal in duration to the length of the Buckingham Nicks album (approx. 35 minutes), between Christine's songs Think About Me and Brown Eyes on the Tusk album?

Yes! That's arguably the only knock I have with Tusk. However, I don't know where I would have put one of Christine's songs in that sequence without killing the flow of the album.

The flow of the album is that there is no flow. You may be used to or familiar with the tracking of all these years though. I dont find it a coincidence that the albums most quirky song The Ledge is followed by the album's most conventional track Think About Me. Christine does disappear midway through and I find that annoying. There is a separate thread around where we played with retracking Tusk and I must say, I vastly improved the album with my tracking

Tusk is the only album that gives Stevie an album side lead with Angel. None of her songs are ever the first track on any album side. Being it was a double album with 4 sides is not much of a bragging point. Stevie also never had the lead single off any Mac album. These were subtle ways of trying to remind everyone that Stevie was not the lead singer of the band. Holding her to only 3 songs held Mirage back because she was on fire during that time. Book of Love or Diane could have been dropped (or both) for Smile At You and Mirage would have been so much better. Even with BTM, the band held to this tradition.

But the clouds, never expect it when it rains. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

[DownOnRodeo]

That the album titles on Tango In The Night and Greatest Hits use the same font (I think Times New Roman) and small caps, and that the mingled wash of olive green and yellow on Greatest Hits is similar to part of the sky on Tango In The Night?

[DownOnRodeo]

That there is a penguin on the cover of Tango In The Night?

Also, correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t it only called a landslide when it’s land (I.e dirt, mud, rocks, etc) falling and an avalanche when it’s snow falling? Since the song is set in snow-covered Aspen, wouldn’t anything falling down be an avalanche and not a landslide?

You wouldn't say that to Bob Dylan.

Seriously, in her defense, "Well the avalanche will bring you down" doesn't sound as poetic.
