Mint Japanese 2LP Set With All Inserts And Obi. 5 Stars! “Lindsey Buckingham Directed Both Fleetwood Mac And Rumours, But He Dominates Here, Composing Nearly Half The Album, And Giving Christine McVie's And Stevie Nicks' Songs An Ethereal, Floating Quality That Turns Them Into Welcome Respites From The Seriously Twisted Immersions Into Buckingham's Id. This Is The Ultimate Cocaine Album — It's Mellow For Long Stretches, And Then Bursts Wide Open In Manic, Frantic Explosions, Such As The Mounting Tension On "The Ledge" Or The Rampaging "That's Enough For Me," Or The Marching Band-Driven Paranoia Of The Title Track, All Of Which Are Relieved By Smooth, Reflective Work From All Three Songwriters. While McVie And Nicks Contribute Some Excellent Songs, Buckingham Owns This Record With His Nervous Energy And Obsessive Production, Winding Up With A Fussily Detailed Yet Wildly Messy Record Unlike Any Other. This Is Mainstream Madness, Crazier Than Buckingham's Idol Brian Wilson And Weirder Than Any Number Of Cult Classics. Of Course, That's Why It Bombed Upon Its Original Release, But Tusk Is A Bracing, Weirdly Affecting Work That May Not Be As Universal Or Immediate As Rumours, But Is Every Bit As Classic. As A Piece Of Pop Art, It's Peerless.” Stephen Thomas Erlewine.
