Could the biggest album of the year be a reissue?
Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks recently announced their self-titled album from 1973 is finally getting a reissue.
One of the songs from Buckingham Nicks would go on to be re-recorded and put on Fleetwood Mac’s self-titled album two years later.
This is the album the pair made before Buckingham bumped into Mick Fleetwood at a recording studio in Los Angeles. The meeting would set the stage that would create one of the greatest bands of all time.

It would also lead to one of the most well-documented bands of all times. A band defined by its breakups, makeups and binges.
Most recently it was the band that broke up with Buckingham in 2018 before Mac began a fresh tour. It would prove to be their last with keyboardist/vocalist Christine McVie, who died in 2022.

I’m not sure what spawned Buckingham and Nicks to re-release this album. At the very least, it seems as if they are on business terms again. Nor do I want to speculate.
This record, Buckingham Nicks, has been difficult to find for decades. Your hoddler-in-chief has searched high and low for it. Occasionally I have found a copy, but it’s usually in only “okay” shape and, for a price point of $50 or more, I didn’t feel it was worth the investment.
The album’s reissue is a big, big deal. For music, Buckingham and Nicks, and especially for us Fleetwood Mac fans.
