Fleetwood mac tour dates 1983 mac#
“Stand Back” (from The Wild Heart, 1983)įleetwood Mac stretched out and got weirder in the early 1980s, but Nicks was busy kicking up some new-wave dust on her solo albums. Few writers are this unafraid of changing.Ĩ. “The planets of the universe go their way / Not astounded by the sun or moon,” she sings, as if breaking up can be chalked up to Newton’s law of universal gravitation. Nicks doesn’t deal in crocodile tears, but celestial language. Originally a demo from the Rumours days, “Planets of the Universe” confronts a heavy subject: her publicly doomed relationship with Lindsey Buckingham. “Planets of the Universe” (from Trouble in Shangri-La, 2001) In spite of itself, “Beauty and the Beast” works. (“It was like we had gone back in time,” said Nicks.) The song itself flips the Jean Cocteau film into a long, languorous ballad about the shackles of time and the meaning of love. The tune was to be recorded live with a symphony orchestra and grand piano she and the background singers wore long, black gowns and served champagne to a throng of guests.

Many rockers of her generation are on the final legs of their farewell tours she’s still slugging it out on the road with an updated Fleetwood Mac. She proved she didn’t need the boys to achieve commercial success in her own right, topping the Billboard 200 with solo debut Bella Donna in 1981 and continuing to release hit albums throughout the ’80s. She never stopped making great music: earthy later albums like 2001’s Trouble in Shangri-La and 2011’s In Your Dreams stand among her finest work.
