The billboard, which has captured the attention of many, displays the original cover art of the album featuring a topless Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. It prominently features their names along with the significant date of September 19. This location is particularly meaningful as it is situated near Sound City Studios, the iconic recording venue where the album was initially brought to life. This clever placement seems to be a thoughtful nod to the album’s rich history and origins, sparking further interest and speculation among fans and music enthusiasts alike.
The billboard, strategically positioned near Los Angeles’ Sound City Studios, features the legendary cover art showcasing a topless Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. Their names and the date September 19 are prominently displayed, likely serving as a significant reference to the album’s roots and the deep connection it has with the legendary studio where it was originally recorded. This creative marketing move undoubtedly adds to the excitement surrounding the potential reissue, inviting fans to reminisce about the impactful music the duo created.
To further fuel the buzz, Nicks and Buckingham recently took to Instagram to share matching posts that featured poignant lyrics from their song Buckingham Nicks cut “Frozen Love.” Nicks quoted, “And if you go forward…” while Buckingham responded with, “I’ll meet you there,” cleverly completing a line from the song’s memorable chorus. This social media activity has certainly piqued the interest of fans, hinting that something may be on the horizon regarding their collaboration and the long-awaited album update.
While neither artist has officially confirmed the reissue, an intriguing development occurred over the weekend when a now-removed page for Buckingham Nicks briefly appeared on the Rhino Records website, adding to the speculation that an announcement is on the verge of happening. Reports indicate that the URL for the page still exists, despite the cover art being taken down, further igniting hope among fans that the reissue might indeed be forthcoming.
The original Buckingham Nicks album marks the only release from the duo before they joined the legendary band Fleetwood Mac in 1975. It has been out of print for several decades and has never received a digital or vinyl reissue, making it a sought-after item among collectors and fans. Over the years, bootleg versions have circulated among die-hard fans, and there is now a growing hope that this potential new release could include exciting bonus material such as alternate takes or live recordings, including a famous early version of the beloved track “Rhiannon.”
As speculation continues, some fans are optimistic about the possibility of a joint tour featuring Nicks and Buckingham, while others are dreamily imagining a full Fleetwood Mac reunion. However, it is worth noting that Nicks has previously stated that the band would not continue without the talented Christine McVie, who sadly passed away in 2022, adding another layer of complexity to the future of the iconic band.
Reflecting on her relationship with Buckingham, Nicks mentioned that the last time they spoke was at McVie’s memorial service. She revealed, “The only time I’ve spoken to Lindsey was there, for about three minutes,” highlighting the tension that has existed between them over the years. She further added, “I dealt with Lindsey for as long as I could. You could not say that I did not give him more than 300 million chances,” which speaks to the complicated history they share.
This intriguing teaser coincides with the recent celebrations of Fleetwood Mac’s 50th anniversary, during which Mick Fleetwood expressed his nostalgia on Instagram, stating, “It’s magic then, it’s magic now. What a thrill, what a thrill.” This sentiment resonates deeply with fans who have cherished the band’s music and legacy for decades, further amplifying the anticipation surrounding any future developments.
Currently, representatives for Rhino Records have not provided any comments regarding this potential reissue, leaving fans eagerly waiting for September 19 to discover if Buckingham Nicks will finally receive the much-deserved re-release that many have been dreaming of for years.
