Are you saying there is now a decent release of B-N on CD or that you found one through a contact?


All the CD versions are bootlegs, but I have one which is fairly decent sounding (albeit ripped from vinyl). There's no officially sanctioned version on CD though - the two parties involved seem to regard that album as a bit of a skeleton in the closet for some reason. A recent article in Uncut seemed to suggest that relations between them are still pretty volatile despite all the re-unions, so perhaps they've never stayed on good terms for long enough to negotiate terms for a re-issue.


There is a fairly recent Mac documentary (possibly a BBC one) where Stevie Nicks says, when asked about their relationship, that she had never been invited to Buckingham's home. So ok then. Maybe not especially convivial but perfectly understandable given the history. However, if I have the chronology right, later in the same show there is a scene shot in Buckingham's home with his new wife who is (of course) a dead ringer for Stevie. Don't know about volatile but that is fairly weird by anyone's standard. Judging by the tour a couple of years back he is still a brilliant guitar player though.


There is also a brilliant bit of body language commentary in that BBC Doc in a bit of reunion gig live footage. LB and SN are doing a fairly intimate tune together and she absolutely clasps her hands around him as if to say "Still mine"
