Andrew Bird and Madison Cunningham on Why They’ve Covered the Rare, Pre-Fleetwood Mac ‘Buckingham Nicks’ Album: ‘It Was Appealing That It Was Inaccessible to a Lot of People’ (EXCLUSIVE)


Andrew Bird and Madison Cunningham tell why they came together as a duo to cover the entire 'Buckingham Nicks' album recorded by Lindsey and Stevie.

The LP falls into an odd category shared by possibly no other in the world: a record made by superstars that has never been issued on CD or in any digital form, let alone re-released on vinyl. Bootlegs abound, certainly, but more than 50 years have gone by now without any legitimate chance to hear it, except for picking up a copy of the original, which was never manufactured in the mass quantities that a Mac album would have been. They’ll continue that with jut a few other upcoming dates, including a show at the Troubadour — where Buckingham and Nicks played the album a half-century ago — on Sept. 30.
