Buckingham Nicks, Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham’s 1973 duo album, arrived quietly in September 1973 and burned slowly rather than exploding. Recorded at Sound City in LA with Keith Olsen, it features ten tracks that blend folk-rock shimmer, intimate acoustic moments, and California swagger, backed by session players like Waddy Wachtel, Jim Keltner, Gary Hodges, and Peggy Sandvig. The nude cover became legendary, echoing the raw openness of the music. Though it was a commercial dud and quickly dropped, its influence was huge: Mick Fleetwood heard a track and invited Buckingham to join Fleetwood Mac, with Nicks along, changing rock history. Long sought after, Buckingham Nicks has now been remastered from the original analog masters and reissued on CD, vinyl, and digital, with new liner notes by David Fricke and special vinyl bundles.
