Anonymous said...: This should be definitely interesting. We've heard descriptions of FM times past from LB's ex gf and from Ken Caillat, with both of them including Dashut in their descriptions. I for one am very curious to hear Richard's version of some of the same events. He seems to have a very engaging style of writing.; 8 August 2014 at 12:24

MplsMike said...: @ first Anonymous post ... yes considering how the next year or two seems to be shaping up interesting timing indeed.

Dashut seems to have nothing but love for Lindsey Buckingham, does anyone know is he on good terms with the whole band? I wouldn't mind having some familiar behind-the-scenes people assisting with production and engineering of the next Mac album.; 8 August 2014 at 18:04

Unknown said...: What did happen? While on the face of it a welcome thing for us fans, the pictures and now the alternate take music etc from Dashut, also seems to me to be somewhat sinister. Truth and consequences...what are the consequences? That he'lol tell the truth? Is he looking for a few bob from the big Mac? Trying to get their attention? Why did he shut down tumblr page etc? All very strange.; 17 April 2016 at 16:27

Get Tusked: The Inside Story of Fleetwood Mac's Most Anticipated Album
by Ken Caillat and Hernan Rojas

In this behind-the-scenes look at the making of Fleetwood Mac’s epic, platinum-selling double album, Tusk, producers and engineers Ken Caillat and Hernan Rojas tell their stories of spending a year with the band in their new million-dollar studio trying to follow up Rumours, the biggest rock album of the time.

Following their massive success, the band continued its infamous soap opera when its musical leader and guitarist, Lindsey Buckingham, threatened to quit if he didn’t get things his way, resulting in clashes not only with his band but especially Caillat, who had been essential to the band’s Grammy-winning sound.

Hernan Rojas’s story recounts a young man who leaves Chile after General Pinochet’s coup to seek his future in the music industry of Los Angeles, where he finds success at one of the hottest studios in town. When Fleetwood Mac arrives, Rojas falls in love with its star singer, Stevie Nicks, and the two of them become romantically involved.

Throughout the book, both Caillat and Rojas detail not only the trials and sacrifices they made to finish the album, but also triumphs of musical inspiration and technical innovation that have made Tusk the darling of music critics and indie rockers today.
