Chapter Seventeen
A prismatic look at one of the most unusual albums ever released by a major rock band, with fresh input from Lindsey Buckingham.
Rob Trucks lives and obsesses in Long Island City, New York.
[The] journalistic revelations and general insight add yet more
layers to the double album's controversial standing.
*The Austin Chronicle*
Trucks doesn’t spend much time analyzing songs; the book is a
tribute to the auteur spirit ... Readers may skim Trucks’ long
digressions into his own autobiography, which is too bad because
they contain some interesting anecdotes, especially regarding the
popularity of the Buckingham Nicks album in the author’s native
Alabama. The real draw of the book, however, are interpolated
testimonials from indie rockers such as Camper Van Beethoven’s
Jonathan Segel and Dave Portner of Animal Collective.
