The third disc is an alternate version of the complete album made up of session outtakes, most of which have never been released. The whole of the album fits on disc one and the second CD is similar-but-different to the 2004 bonus disc with a few single versions, some outtakes but 12 previously unreleased early versions including multiple variations of Tusk and I Know I’m Not Wrong.
Tusk (1979), along with Rumours (1977) and Fleetwood Mac (1975), was already remastered in 2004, but since Rumours received an updated deluxe remaster in 2013, it makes sense Tusk.Ī two-CD reissue of Tusk was issued in 2004 which added a bonus disc of demos, outtakes and alternates. You’ll need to hang on to that because unlike the Rumours from early 2013, not all of that bonus material is ported over to this new box – however what is included looks very interesting indeed. Tango In The Night is the second-best selling LP of Fleetwood Mac's career, and the final album released by the lineup of Mick Fleetwood. Following up Rumours was always going to be something of a thankless task, but despite not taking the easy option and giving the public Rumours II, Tusk was still relatively successful (it’s sold over 4 million copies worldwide) and Stevie Nicks’ Sara (irritatingly edited on the first CD pressings) followed the Tusk single into the US top ten. Tusk was the band’s 12th album (a double) and a more experimental approach was evident via Buckingham’s production techniques and arrangements, notably on the title track which memorably features the University of Southern California’s marching band. Rhino are to release ‘s 1979 album Tusk as a sizeable 8-disc super deluxe edition box set in December that will feature a wealth of unreleased material and a 5.1 surround sound mix of the record.
