Amazing... Fleetwood Mac have 3 albums on this weeks Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart!

Fleetwood Mac's 1988 Greatest Hits album re-enters Billboards Top 200 Albums Chart this week at #65 with US sales for the week of 6,544 units, up from 2,222 last week (195% increase). This marks the albums 32nd non-consecutive week on the Top 200. The album is also sitting at #7 on the Top 200 Catalogue Charts, up from #78 and at #4 on the Top 200 Catalogue Digital Albums Chart up from #42. The album was an Amazon Deal a little over a week ago discounted to $2.99 for the digital download which contributed to the large sales increase.  The album continues today at $2.99 on Amazon. Total digital sales for this reporting period were 5,864 a 320% increase over the previous weeks number of 1,397. Overall total US sales since November, 1991 are 4,562,666.

Fleetwood Mac's self titled 1975 white album also re-enters the Top 200 Chart this week at #187 on sales of 2,864 units, up from 261 units the previous week. Total sales for the white 1975 Fleetwood Mac album in the US since November, 1991 are 852,975.  This marks this albums 149th non-consecutive week on the chart.   The album also re-entered the Top 200 Catalogue Charts at #40.  The album also re-entered the Top 200 Catalogue Physical Chart at #11 with 2,712 physical units sold. The 2004 re-released remastered album with bonus tracks was discounted at Amazon for $5.00, not as a digital download but for the actual disc! That's a pretty amazing deal! The AMAZON sale has since ended.

For a 4th Week, Fleetwood Mac's 2002 double cd release "The Very Best Of" remains on the Top 200 Chart - albeit in second last place moving down the chart from #181 to #199.  Sales for the week were 2,682 vs 3,134 the previous week, a 14% sales decline. Total US sales for The Very Best Of are 1,492,697 - just shy of triple platinum (each sold unit is counted as 2 because the set contains 2 discs).

Rumours remains on a few charts in the US as well.  On the Top 200 Catalogue Albums Chart the album moves up to #50 from #107 the previous week on unit sales of 2,467 vs 1,991 the previous week, a 24% sales increase.

Review: Stevie Nicks Niagara Falls, NY "Nice to see such sincere flashes of humility"

Buffalo News

NIAGARA FALLS – If one were to look only at the concert schedule for Saturday night in Niagara Falls and not at recent news of restoring waterfront access and attracting young professionals through an innovative program that pays off student loans, one might think the Cataract City is more passe than progressive.

Likewise, one might also equate the offering of Fleetwood Mac singer Stevie Nicks at Seneca Niagara Events Center with that of classic rockers The Guess Who at Hard Rock Cafe Niagara Falls at the other end of Old Falls Street; there is a profound difference, however, which Nicks stated in no uncertain terms before an adoring sold-out crowd made up mostly of baby boomers.

The 64-year-old Nicks and her eight-piece band paced their long set by bouncing back and forth between her considerable collection of hits from the ’70s and ’80s and more recent material, directly declaring her desire to create new material and avoid a “greatest hits” show. For the most part, this was well-received, although the show opened ominously – taking the stage with a tepid take on Led Zeppelin’s “Rock and Roll” that could’ve been topped by a common cover band playing at the casino bar, the fact that Nicks has lost a step was made plain, as she stood still instead of flashing any sight of her signature gypsy twirling, and her confident but staid contralto voice belied the wildness of Robert Plant’s pyrotechnics on the original.

Thankfully, this slow start was soon forgotten, as Nicks loosened up a bit with “Enchanted,”....

"This is not... I repeat, this is not a Stevie Nicks Greatest Hits Tour" - Stevie Nicks Detroit July 6th

STEVIE NICKS LIVE IN DETROIT

THE FOX THEATRE - JULY 6, 2012

Stevie opened her show last night in Detroit with Rock & Roll... Here's a clip  Enchanted was next in the set after which Stevie welcomed everyone to the show and talked a little bit about the show and this tour.. Taken from the video below.. Here's a little bit of what she said... Taken from the video below:

"This is not... I repeat, this is not a Stevie Nicks Greatest Hits Tour.  After doing this last summer and this summer I probably will never do a Stevie Nicks tour that is just Stevie Nicks hits again because for my own artistic trip I have got to do new things and I appreciate the fact that everybody has given me the chance to do that. I do, really you have no idea how much. So... I thank you for coming, I thank you for being wonderful and loyal and all of that. It never.. for one second do I take it for granted. So knowing that... I think we should begin with something new... Secret Love."

Also available is a 12 minute Edge of Seventeen
