Tusk (Fleetwood Mac)
A (relatively) in-depth analysis of the 1979 album Tusk by Fleetwood Mac in (just under) fifteen minutes. In this episode I am in discussion with Dr. Andrew Webber.
When contemplating their 12th album, Lindsey Buckingham was adamant about creating an album that sounded nothing like Rumours. Eager to embrace the modern sounds of New Wave and insprired by bands such as Talking Heads, Buckingham was determined to explore the unknown, whether or not his bandmates were interested or not. Like the Beatles’ White Album (also a double album) and The Beach Boys Smiley Smile, Tusk reveled in its own chaos, was both foreign and familiar, exsquisite and weirdly affecting.
Journalist Adam Webb described the Tusk recording sessions as a "cocaine blizzard" from which Christine McVie's then-boyfriend, Beach Boy drummer Dennis Wilson, "never really came out.
The album was remade in its entirety by American alternative rock band Camper Van Beethoven and released in 2003.
This is Episode 21 of Season 3. I would like to say a huge thank you to the overwhelming number of listeners and followers over the past two years as the Low Noise podcast continues to evolve in its own inimitable way. I truly appreciate all your interest and support.
I hope you enjoy this episode.
