Buckingham Nicks Album Soars Back to Life After Decades

In a surprising turn of events, the long-forgotten self-titled album from the duo Buckingham Nicks has made a remarkable comeback, debuting at No. 3 on the Top Album Sales chart. The album, originally released in 1973 before Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks joined Fleetwood Mac, has sold 30,000 copies in the United States in the week ending September 25, 2025.

This impressive sales figure marks the biggest week for any album by Buckingham, Nicks, or Fleetwood Mac in over a decade. The album has also made its debut on several other charts, including Top Rock Albums, Indie Store Album Sales, Catalog Albums (where it reached No. 1), Top Rock & Alternative Albums, and Vinyl Albums (where it reached No. 2).

The reissue of the Buckingham Nicks album, which was previously out of circulation but widely bootlegged, has been met with enthusiasm from the duo. Buckingham and Nicks have both expressed their happiness that the album is getting a "second life" and have encouraged fans to "love it."

With 18,000 copies sold on vinyl, the album has also set the largest sales week in the format in the modern era (since 1991) for any project by Buckingham, Nicks, or Fleetwood Mac. This resurgence of interest in the duo's forgotten work is a testament to the enduring appeal of their music and the power of nostalgia in the music industry.
