Fleetwood
Mac Album Almost Finished, Tour To Follow
Tuesday January
8th 2002,
It's full speed ahead this year for a new album and tour from Fleetwood
Mac. The band--drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie,
singer-guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, and singer Stevie Nicks--has
been working on the untitled project for a little while, and Nicks tells
LAUNCH that she's very confident both in the music and in the release and
tour schedule.
"It's gonna be a good
record. I can already hear it--I mean, a lot of Lindsey's stuff is pretty
much done, five of my songs are recorded, so if we don't record one more
thing, we already have a record," she says. "So now it's just
gonna be polish between now and May or June, 'cause we'd like to turn the
record in in June, and then we'd be gone by September on the road."
With singer-keyboardist Christine
McVie retired, the band opted to move forward as a four piece without
her. There are no plans to permanently replace McVie in the lineup,
although the touring band will feature extra musicians.
