Tusk could be considered Fleetwood Mac's middle child that demanded more attention


The Return of Tusk: Fleetwood Mac's Exotic Classic Expands
By Mike Ragogna


When Fleetwood Mac's Tusk finally was unveiled to the masses back in 1979, it critically dropped like a white elephant. After releasing two of the best, almost flawless pop albums of the seventies--Rumours and Fleetwood Mac--folks expected the band's formula of non-stop, potential singles to remain intact. Instead, Tusk spread its sonic experimentation across two albums, its creative overlord, Lindsey Buckingham, having utilized virtually every studio toy at his disposal. Add to that USC's marching band drumline-ing across the focus single/title track with servings of un-Mac-like musical performances and song lengths, and you get Buckingham's musical vision/version of what a late-seventies album was supposed to be. Fleetwood Mad had arrived and considering the relationship breakdowns and band's highly-publicized drug culture, it was a miracle this previously-considered overthought, overwrought product made it to vinyl at all.

Review Fleetwood Mac Live in Auckland, NZ November 21, 2015

Review: Fleetwood Mac in Auckland
by Lydia Jenkin
NZHerald

The title of Fleetwood Mac's current 15-month world tour 'On With The Show' felt especially fitting as the heavens opened above Mount Smart Stadium in Auckland last night in a pre-summer monsoon.

But the rain did little to dampen the spirits of the 38,000 people who'd turned out for the second to last night of the tour - the biggest crowd the legendary five-piece have played to since they reunited in September 2014.

They might've been getting soaked, but for many this was a once in a lifetime opportunity to see Mick Fleetwood, Lindsey Buckingham, John McVie, Stevie Nicks, and Christine McVie all together once more, and they were ready to let the rain wash them clean, go their own way, and break some chains.

And so were Fleetwood Mac. Their two hour set was laden with hits, and right from opener The Chain, it was clear the five longtime band mates and past lovers have put the years of turbulence well behind them, and now delight in giving these songs a truly heartfelt rendition.
