Side A - Poet In My Heart

05/01/25 • 97 min

This four-part podcast examines Fleetwood Mac's 1979 album "Tusk" against the supplemental "The Alternate Tusk," made up of new takes and mixes. This polarizing album defied expectations of 'a sequel to the world's best-selling record' and holds deeply introspective and personal messages.
In Side A, Bryce and Jeff lay the groundwork for the album, introduce "Get Tusked," and explore the first five tracks: Over & Over, The Ledge, Think About Me, Save Me a Place, and Sara.

"Tusk (Deluxe Edition)," "Fleetwood Mac Live (Deluxe Edition)," and "Mirage Tour '82 (Live)" are available everywhere from Warner Records. Thank you to the band, crews, and staff for this iconic music.
