They\u2019re not going their own way anymore. After much speculation, Fleetwood Mac\u2019s Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham announced Wednesday the reissue of \u201cBuckingham Nicks,\u201d more than 50 years after the release of their only full-length album as a duo.<\/p>\n

Originally released in 1973, \u201cBuckingham Nicks\u201d is not currently available on streaming platforms. According to Discogs, the album was last issued on vinyl on the Polydor label in the U.S. in 1981. The remastered version arrives Sept. 19 via Rhino Records\u2019 high-fidelity series and was sourced from the original analog master tapes. The album will also receive a CD and digital release for the first time, and the opening track, \u201cCrying in the Night,\u201d was available to stream Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Buckingham and Nicks were in their early to mid-20s during the making of their album. \u201cIt was a very natural thing, from the beginning,\u201d Nicks says in the re-release\u2019s liner notes, written by music journalist David Fricke.<\/p>\n

Despite their relative inexperience, \u201cit stands up in a way you would hope it would, by these two kids who were pretty young to be doing that work,\u201d Buckingham says, according to the announcement release.<\/p>\n

The reissue announcement was foreshadowed by cryptic Instagram posts last week. Both Nicks and Buckingham shared handwritten lyrics to their official social media accounts.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd if you go forward\u2026\u201d Nicks posted, a line from their song \u201cFrozen Love,\u201d which appears on \u201cBuckingham Nicks.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll meet you there,\u201d Buckingham shared, completing the lyric.<\/p>\n

With the new book Dreams: The Many Lives of Fleetwood Mac, the fascination with the high-drama band continues<\/a><\/p>\n

In 2011, Buckingham told Uncut that he and Nicks had \u201cevery intention of putting that album back out and possibly even doing something along with it, but I can\u2019t put any specifics on that.\u201d In 2013, on the album\u2019s 40th anniversary, Fleetwood Mac released \u201cExtended Play,\u201d their first new studio material since 2003\u2019s \u201cSay You Will.\u201d The four-track collection featured a song titled \u201cWithout You,\u201d which had been originally slated for \u201cBuckingham Nicks.\u201d<\/p>\n

The reissued version of \u201cBuckingham Nicks\u201d features the same album cover as the original, despite Nicks\u2019 public dissatisfaction with the photograph, telling classic rock magazine MOJO that she \u201cfelt like a rat in a trap\u201d during the shoot.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m actually quite prudish. So when they suggested they shoot Lindsey and I nude I could not have been more terrified if you\u2019d asked me to jump off a speeding train,\u201d Nicks told MOJO in 2013. \u201cLindsey was like, \u2018Oh, come on \u2013 this is art. Don\u2019t be a child!\u2019 I thought, \u2018Who are you? Don\u2019t you know me?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBuckingham Nicks\u201d was released one year before they joined Fleetwood Mac, and was met with little commercial success. But it did attract the attention of Mick Fleetwood, who invited Buckingham to join Fleetwood Mac. Buckingham in turn insisted Nicks come, too. The two, then a couple, became the central faces, voices and songwriters of the group for the four decades that followed.<\/p>\n

The pair\u2019s tumultuous relationship appeared across the band\u2019s discography: She wrote \u201cDreams\u201d about him. He wrote \u201cGo Your Own Way\u201d about her. Infamously, they broke up while writing the 1977 hit album \u201cRumours.\u201d Footage of Nicks staring down Buckingham 20 years later during a performance of \u201cSilver Springs\u201d routinely goes viral (\u201cYou\u2019ll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you,\u201d Nicks and Buckingham sing in unison, at one point, holding each other\u2019s gaze.)<\/p>\n

Buckingham left the band in 1987, returning in 1996. The last time the band reunited, however, for a 2018-2019 tour, the rest of the members kicked Buckingham out, and as a result, he sued them. He claimed he was told five days after the group appeared at Radio City Music Hall that the band would tour without him. He says he would have been paid at least US$12-million for his share of the proceeds. Later that year, Buckingham said they had settled the lawsuit.<\/p>\n

Both Buckingham and Nicks have also released reams of solo music. Some fans had theorized that Nicks and Buckingham were teasing a Fleetwood Mac reunion, which would have been the first since the death of vocalist, songwriter and keyboard player Christine McVie in 2022.<\/p>\n

Last year, Nicks told MOJO that without McVie, \u201cthere is no chance of putting Fleetwood Mac back together in any way.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Open this photo in gallery: Buckingham Nicks by Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham.Supplied They\u2019re not going their own…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19633,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[901,888,902,879,877,903,49,48,876,895,896,891,878,875,46,549,75,295,894,887,914,880,881,893,889,890,884,904,341,885,909,910,912,907,911,905,908,882,898,899,714,897,906,865,61,900,892,886,883,913],"class_list":["post-19632","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-alberta","tag-arts-news","tag-bc","tag-breaking-news","tag-breaking-news-video","tag-british-columbia","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-canada-news","tag-canada-sports","tag-canada-sports-news","tag-canada-trafficcanada-weather","tag-canadian-breaking-news","tag-canadian-news","tag-economy","tag-education","tag-entertainment","tag-environment","tag-federal-government","tag-foreign-news","tag-globe-and-mail","tag-globe-and-mail-breaking-news","tag-globe-and-mail-canada-news","tag-government","tag-life-news","tag-lifestyle","tag-local-news","tag-manitoba","tag-music","tag-national-news","tag-new-brunswick","tag-newfoundland-and-labrador","tag-northwest-territories","tag-nova-scotia","tag-nunavut","tag-ontario","tag-pei","tag-photos","tag-political-news","tag-political-opinion","tag-politics","tag-politics-news","tag-quebec","tag-sports-news","tag-technology","tag-travel","tag-trudeau","tag-us-news","tag-world-news","tag-yukon"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19632","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19632"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19632\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19633"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19632"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19632"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19632"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
