About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

In the spring of 2004, Warner Strategic Marketing reissued as remastered expanded editions Fleetwood Mac's first three albums with Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Tusk restores "Sara" to its original running length (on the previous CD edition, it was offered in a truncated single edit in order to fit the whole album on one disc), and is given a bonus disc with 21 tracks, which is longer than the original double album. Of these, two are previously released single versions of "Think About Me" and "Sisters of the Moon," and of the remaining 19 tracks, only two are previously unheard songs -- and both of those are covers, of Jorge Calderon's "Kiss and Run" and the Beach Boys' "Farmer's Daughter" (the former is a rough studio jam, the latter is polished and very good). The rest of the bonus disc contains demos, alternate takes, and working versions of songs from Tusk. Unlike the Rumours bonus disc, where the alternate takes often sounded like unpolished versions of the final takes, these are often really rough takes, which makes them more interesting listens. What's particularly fascinating is to hear several of Buckingham's songs develop from these demo and alternates to the finished versions on the album. "I Know I'm Not Wrong" is singled out with no less than three versions, and it's compelling listening to hear it grow and mutate from each take. Given that it consists of almost nothing but demos and alternates, the bonus disc is more for the historical record than for listening for enjoyment, but it does offer considerably valuable insight into the creation of the great, unwieldy album that is Tusk, which is what makes this one of the finest expanded reissues of a classic record yet released.

October 29, 2006: I also like this expanded album of Tusk. I think it was exciting as the Rumours was. The songs are terrific. The roughs and outakes still sounded good. They did an outstanding job to expand their three albums. Still Rocks!

April 06, 2004: Following in the wake of "Rumours", "Tusk" offers a little something different from the usual Fleetwood Mac sound. While Lindsey Buckingham goes a little overboard on his musical experimentation and quirkiness (as evidenced by the nearly 10 minute long live version of "Not That Funny" on "F.M. Live"), both Christine McVie and Stevie Nicks keep the album from being too crazy with their softer styles. The best songs are Buckingham's "Tusk", McVie's "Think About Me", "Over And Over", & "Brown Eyes", and Nicks's "Sara", "Sisters Of The Moon", & "Angel". The bonus disc offers a some good surprises with the alternate versions of some of your favorites. A notable effort from a good band.
