The NY Times has a featureI* on the forthcoming new album by Lindsey Buckingham, who was one half of the musical and personal
chemistry which bubbled into the first and only album, Buckingham Nicks. Never a commercial success but it is an amazing album.
The album chronicles the life and musical chemistry of the two in the title. Things did not work out well for the couple, with the Times applauding Buckingham for getting up yet again and re-appearing like. a phoenix. I can't say more, article is paywalled.
Many speculate or gossip, but my take is that the relationship was complex & passionate, and maybe... competitive. +/=
Races Are Won
Races are won, some people win and some people always have to lose
Full lyrics below, and just a bit more context & perspective. Oh, and Stevie Nicks wrote it. ;)
Those who follow music/rock/vintage history may know that Fleetwood Mac had it's first huge hits in a long time (ever?) - like Rhiannon - when Stevie and Lindsey joined Fleetwood Mac, who had played out its 60s Mayall/ BluesBreakers/ British rock repertoire Anyone who saw them towards their end (which may have been imminent), knows that they were de-energized, but suddenly reborn & super-infused by Buckingham & Nicks.
But it did mot end well personally, at least for Lindsey, the Times characterizing him as picking himself up once again. He's back.
I think this here is a masterwork song that captures the personal & musical chemistry and I was in the music/sound biz for a while and remember first hearing this album on good sound speakers &/or headphones and getting goose bumps. It's quite an opus.

LYRICS
So many different kind of people
Trying to be the same
"No way," baby
He said
Baby there's no way
If we could start again
Well who knows
Have we really changed
Some say we have
Reflecting our past
Who can say
Who can say
Races are run
Some people win
Some people always have to lose
Tell me I'm wrong
I can't believe you
We tried a thousand times before
Rained on reasons
Kept us believing
That there might still be more
Races are run
Some people win
Some people always have to lose
-Stevie Nicks

Not sure where or who (exactly), but I know there was a recent thread about Fleetwood Mac and the "value added" by Buckingham & Nicks. Collectively, individually. Talent. Ego. Attitude. Songwriting.....
Anyway, this just came out, apologies that it is paywalled mostly.
Lindsey Buckingham Has Survived It All: After a heart attack and (another) feud with Stevie Nicks, the former Fleetwood Mac guitarist returns with a new solo album.

Meanwhile...
Sort of real, sort of sad... For those who remember when "Buckingham Nicks" were one of the most blazing symbols of love and fine music. And then into "the new" Fleetwood Mac. Well, "It is what it is". 🎶<3
