Instead of selling 30 millions copies, it sold something like 4 million copies, which was considered by some to be a failure. This was partly in response to new-wave sounds arriving in 1979-1980 and partly that he just didn't want to release "Rumours Part 2". The main story is well known to Fleetwood Mac fans - after selling 30 million plus copies of "Rumours", Lindsey Buckingham pushed the band in a new direction.
Similar to some of other great threads here, I am hoping to post a song title (in order), every couple days with some introductory thoughts and then have everyone chime in what they think of the song - perhaps some lyrical analysis and thoughts on the steps forward this music made and comments on the overall departure of sound from the 1977 classic - "Rumours"īefore we get started on the individual songs, maybe we can just say a little about the album in general - thoughts we may have had way back when it came out, and where it stands these days in our playlists.
I am hoping there is some interest in discussing this album thoroughly - song by song, and nitty gritty detail to nitty gritty detail. I have enjoyed this LP for nearly 40 years now, and as you may have seen in some of my recent posts, I'm on a little bit of a Fleetwood Mac / Lindsey Buckingham kick lately.
