Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham Reconnect on Podcast After 'Buckingham Nicks' Reissue

Separate podcast interviews confirm renewed contact following the long-unavailable 1973 album's charting reissue.

Overview

  • The pair appeared in separately recorded Song Exploder interviews to dissect “Frozen Love,” with Nicks noting they had spoken the night before the taping.
  • Nicks clarified a long-misheard lyric in “Frozen Love,” saying she wrote “Fate gave you me for a lover,” not “Hate,” and said she planned to apologize to Buckingham.
  • The Buckingham Nicks reissue, part of Rhino’s High Fidelity series, arrived in September after decades out of print and debuted at No. 3 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales with about 30,000 U.S. copies.
  • Both artists reflected on their early partnership, describing a turbulent yet productive dynamic and outlining how Nicks’ songwriting and Buckingham’s production roles complemented each other.
  • Despite the thaw in relations, Nicks has repeatedly said a Fleetwood Mac reunion is off the table without the late Christine McVie.
