After the success of the ''Rumours'' album and tour in 1977 to 1978, Fleetwood Mac began recording their third album with Nicks and Buckingham, ''[[Tusk (album)|Tusk]]'', in the spring of 1978. By this time, Nicks had amassed a large backlog of songs that she had been unable to record with Fleetwood Mac because of the constraint of having to accommodate three songwriters on each album.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://nicksfix.com/behind_the_music.htm|title=Stevie Nicks&nbsp;– Behind the Music|access-date=June 3, 2010|archive-date=July 14, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110714182105/http://www.nicksfix.com/behind_the_music.htm|url-status=live}}</ref> ''Tusk'' was released on October 19, 1979.
