Great news!!! Looks like the work is done and the package complete! Looks like the ball is in the labels court now to schedule the release and get the word out. Exciting stuff!

Unconfirmed tracklisting appeared briefly on wikipedia July 16th (Removed today, July 17th) showing the following tracks on Stevie's upcoming album.  Personally, I think this is bogus, typically something as important as a tracklist and the actual album title (which still hasn't been published) should and will come via a Reprise Records press release accessing one of their many avenues to release such information rather than some sort of haphazard random post on a wikipedia page which can be altered simply by anyone.  But for historical purposes and to make note, this is the track list that was posted preceded with the words "Reprise Records confirmed". The list of songs has since been removed:

TRACKLISTING

1. 24 Karat Gold
2. Gold and Braid
3.The Black Space Needle

This tracklist was confirmed as fake.

Fleetwood’s band delivers ‘only on Maui’ sounds

Photo Aubrey Hord

Rock star drummer Mick Fleetwood performed with his band at the Castle Theater at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center on Thursday evening and pulled in a mix of friends and special guests to create a truly unique “only on Maui” moment for music fans. Youth taiko drummers from Zenshin Daiko, directed by Anthony Jones, created a wall of resonant drumbeats to back up the sounds of The Mick Fleetwood Blues Band (Rick Vito on guitar, Lenny Castellanos on bass and Paul Johnstone on keyboard), along with Glen Lacy on the African djembe drum, Carlos Garcia on hand drums and Paul Marchetti on more drums. Willie K and Eric Gilliom added their vocals and guitars, and a brass element was added with Johnny Zangrando on saxophone and Henry Arroyo on trombone.

Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" back in the U.S. Top 100 on Billboards Top 200 Album Chart

Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" is on a little bit of a tear on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart.  In it's second week back on the chart, the album moves into the Top 100 up to No.99 this week, from No.139 last week. On the Top 50 Catalogue Albums Chart, the album moves into the Top 20 coming in at No.18 from No.27 last week. The album is trending up, so it should go further up the chart next week.

Incidently, in the U.S. Amazon right now has the MP3 album on sale for $3.99.

In Australia "Greatest Hits" re-enters the Top 100 Albums Chart with the consistently selling "The Very Best Of" down this week to No.78 from No.67 last week.  Another consistent seller in Australia has been the 4CD box set "25 Years - The Chain". This week on the Top 50 Catalogue Albums Chart the set drops to No.43 from No.27 last week.
