Meanwhile, the vocals of Lindsey, Stevie and Christine have never sounded so lush, lovely and completely together as they do on Mirage.

Some slightly more exotic instruments were used as well, including vibes and harp, both played by Buckingham. Stevie Nicks' songs are "That's Alright," "Gypsy" and "Straight Back," while Buckingham contributes five: "Can't Go Back," "Eyes Of The World," and three co-written by Dashut, "Book Of Love," "Empire State" and "Oh Diane."Īs always, the instrumentation features Buckingham's guitars and McVie's keyboards backed by the rock solid rhythm section of Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie. Christine McVie's four songs include the first single, "Hold Me" (co-written by Robbie Patton), as well as "Love In Store" (written with Jim Recor) and two ballads, "Only Over You" and "Wish You Were Here" (the latter with lyrics by Colin Allen). During the summer of 1982, Mirage topped the album chart and added to the band's already impressive canon of hits with "Hold Me," "Love In Store" and "Gypsy." It is every bit as fresh and accessible as Rumours, whilst its production sound (mainly courtesy of principal producers Lindsey Buckingham, Richard Dashut and Ken Caillat) is as lively and distinctive, as Tusk's.Įach of Fleetwood Mac's three resident composer/vocalists are represented here with some of his or her strongest contributions yet. It took five years until the band would release another album, 1987’s Tango In The Night.Fleetwood Mac's streak of five consecutive multi-platinum albums began in the '70s and continued in 1982 with Mirage, the follow-up to the band's 1979 double-album, Tusk. For me, none of the albums after Tusk quite had it. And Buckingham admitted, “On Mirage, I was treading water, saying, ‘Okay, whatever,’ and taking a passive role. Christine McVie shared, “ Mirage was an attempt to get back into the flow that Rumours had. Overseas, the album would reach the top 20 in several countries and “Oh Diane” was a top 10 hit in the UK.ĭespite the album’s success, members would later admit that the band was in a steep decline at the time. Fleetwood Mac retreated from the insular strangeness of Tusk and returned to straightforward pop songcraft for Mirage. The album still found success, spawning three top 30 hits in the US including the #4 “Gyspy”. The success of Nicks' Bella Donna, however, made record executives anxious to get Fleetwood Mac back in the studio – and the result was Mirage.īut relations between members got so bad that the director for the video of the album’s lead single “Hold Me” would describe the atmosphere as “a fucking nightmare”, adding that four of the members “couldn’t be together in the same room for very long”. It spent 5 weeks at the number 1 spot in the US (their third and final chart-topper) and reached the top 20 in several other countries.Īfter touring for their previous album Tusk, the band was exhausted and relations were strained, so the group went on hiatus for a year as Nicks, Buckingham and Fleetwood each released their debut solo albums. Mirage is the 13th studio album by British- American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released in June of 1982.
