Tusk was Fleetwood Mac’s 13th studio album, which earned the band little success initially with only 4 million records sold worldwide. Tusk did not reach the caliber of their 11th studio album which was the famous Rumours record, the album that skyrocketed their international success to iconic levels.
Fleetwood Mac Live was the bands first live-recorded debut album and was released originally released in 1980. The new record will also feature the astronomical track The Chain during a recording in the Richfield Coliseum in 1980.
The band is not currently touring due to safety concerns surround the Covid-19 pandemic. Mack Fleetwood, one of the founders, will be preforming a show this April at The Crescent Concert Hall Drogheda in Ireland. Fleetwood Mac Live Deluxe Edition is currently available to pre-order here.
