~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Nicks met her future partner Lindsey Buckingham while in high school and along with two others formed a band called Fritz which became popular as a live act from 1968 until 1972. They were the opening act for, among others, Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin. After the band parted, Nicks and Buckingham remained as a duo releasing the album Buckingham Nicks in 1973. While not a commercial success it caught the attention of drummer Mick Fleetwood who was looking for a new guitarist for his band Fleetwood Mac. Stevie was reduced to cleaning houses at the time that Fleetwood Mac stumbled onto the duo. They invited the duo to join them, and the new ensemble released the album Fleetwood Mac in 1975. Nicks contributed songs such as "Rhiannon" and "Landslide", originally written for the second Buckingham Nicks album. The team-up proved to be no fluke, as the Mac enjoyed its first #1 on the Billboard 200 and sold more than five million copies. In the book Fleetwood by drummer Mick Fleetwood, he states that a billboard advertisement for Fleetwood Mac featured the band with Lindsey labeled as Stevie and vice versa.
