Some gorgeous looking albums all limited editions from Europe featuring Fleetwood Mac. They are among the best selling groups of all time and there is a good reason for that. Their music is relaxing and beautiful. Tusk is a completely underrated 2LP album by the group. Sold just 4 million copies but please find me in the new century a single group that sold as many albums. Originally produced in 1979. The copy is perfect in every aspect. Every scan is reflecting the actual copy I am selling. It is in absolutely guaranteed MINT condition and it will ship in bulletproof packaging. No international shipping will be available. I do not ship records outside USA.
Tusk is the 12th studio album by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released as a double album on 12 October 1979. It is considered more experimental than their previous albums: partly a consequence of Lindsey Buckingham's sparser songwriting arrangements and the influence of post-punk. The production costs were estimated to be over $1 million (equivalent to $3.52 million in 2019), making it the most expensive rock album recorded to that date.
The band embarked on a nine-month tour to promote Tusk. They travelled extensively across the world, including the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, Japan, France, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK. In Germany, they shared the bill with Bob Marley. On this world tour, the band recorded music for the Fleetwood Mac Live album released in 1980.
Compared to 1977's Rumours, which sold 10 million copies by February 1978, Tusk was regarded as a commercial failure by the label, selling four million copies. In 2013, NME ranked Tusk at number 445 in their list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. The album was also included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. In 2000 it was voted number 853 in Colin Larkin's All Time Top 1000 Albums.
Many rare items are available and more will be listed in a weekly basis. Please enjoy the store because you will have a show of extremely collectible Steelbooks, or other rare Slipcover editions, Records and occasionally other products.

Domestic Shipping
In the USA shipping varies upon location. I will only ship using USPS but you get to choose the method of shipping: Media Mail, or USPS Priority which is the safest and fastest way to ship. You will be able through the eBay calculator to estimate your exact shipping cost. That’s unless I have a free shipping discount promotion. In case you buy more than 1 item, please request an invoice because E-bay cannot calculate shipping costs in multiple purchases.

I will always ship in a box with bubble packaging. You will be able through the eBay calculator to estimate your exact shipping cost. Again, in case you buy more than 1 item, please request an invoice because E-bay cannot calculate shipping costs in multiple purchases.
