I can admit now that, not until she was officially credited on “Future Games” and “Bare Trees”, were we sure that the singer of “Spare Me a Little” was female! Simply astounding that the late Christine (Perfect) McVie was lending her songwriting, distinctive voice, organ, and piano sound to Fleetwood Mac here, and continued over almost forty of the next fifty years.

Fleetwood Mac “Tusk” interview with Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood, part two
Imagine an entire season of the tv “reality series” show Survivor if it had been filmed in a locked down recording studio instead of a remote island, and with guitars instead of spears, and you have the story of Fleetwood Mac’s 1979 double opus “Tusk”.
Shortly before he would depart Fleetwood Mac, the late Bob Welch singing the sublime “Hypnotized” with the band performing live in 1974 from The Record Plant in Sausalito CA.
This Memorial Day weekend, we present our annual tribute to rockers we have lost with Echoes In the Studio, a tribute to some of those musicians we have lost in the preceding twelve months, in their own words and, in some cases, through personal memoirs by other musician peers. In this part one of four, we salute Tina Turner, Jeff Beck, Meat Loaf, Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac, Procol Harum’s Gary Brookr and Keith Reid by Bryan Adams, Rod Stewart, and Stevie Nicks.
In July 1981, Stevie Nicks already was in arguably America’s most popular band, Fleetwood Mac, but her first solo album then, “Bella Donna”, took her career to another level entirely, a fact that was by no means guaranteed and which came at some cost. Stevie spells it all out quite candidly In the Studio while revealing the stories and characters behind “Edge of Seventeen”, “Leather and Lace” with Don Henley, and the timeless duet with Tom Petty on his “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around”.
This version of “Crystal” will sound uncannily familiar to millions of Fleetwood Mac fans, yet those same people will swear that they have never seen or heard the album Buckingham Nicks.
A brand new self-titled Lindsey Buckingham album and tour coming on the fortieth anniversary of his very first solo album,”Law and Order”, are just some of the reasons to share this 2006 deep dive conversation. For two days, Buckingham and I sat in a small windowless room serving as his confessional, his therapeutic safe space, and we did not leave until Lindsey told me his truth about playing the role of Vincent in the real-life Van Gogh soap opera that has been his life and musical career for nearly fifty years.
