May 15, 1975 Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham performed with Fleetwood Mac for the first time in El Paso, Tx at the Civic Center Grand Hall - a pivotal date in the legacy of Fleetwood Mac.

Thirty six years ago, on May 11, 1989, Stevie Nicks released her fourth solo album, The Other Side of the Mirror, in North America. The UK and Australian releases followed later that month. While it may not hold the iconic status of Bella Donna or The Wild Heart, The Other Side of the Mirror remains one of Nicks’ most intriguing and underappreciated works.Produced by Rupert Hine, the album arrived on the heels of Fleetwood Mac’s Tango in the Night, and as the first band member to go solo post-Tango, expectations for Nicks were high. She delivered: the album peaked at number 10 in the U.S., number 11 in Canada and debuted at number 3 in the UK, marking her highest solo chart entry there to date. The album also achieved top 10 status in Australia and Sweden and landed in the top 20 in other european markets.The lead single, “Rooms on Fire,” was a world wide hit reaching the top 20 in multiple countries including number 16 in the US, number 9 in Canada and became Nicks’ first top 40 solo hit in the UK reaching number 16. Four singles were released from the album to varying degrees of success. “Long Way to Go” reached number 60 and “Whole Lotta Trouble” reached number 62 in the UK and number 22 in Ireland. “Long Way To Go” reached number 11 on the US Album Rock Tracks chart and number 65 in Australia. "Two Kinds of Love" and the Grammy nominated "Whole Lotta Trouble" both surprisingly failed to chart in the US.Artistically, The Other Side of the Mirror still stands tall. While often overshadowed by her earlier solo triumphs, the album holds a special place in her discography — especially among devoted fans who recognize its depth and atmosphere. There’s plenty of magic to discover on The Other Side of the Mirror.

From the groundbreaking release of Rumours to the solo triumphs of Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham, these milestones highlight the band’s lasting impact on the music industry.

After the Buckingham Nicks album failed commercially, Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac after hearing Lindsey's guitar playing at Sound City Studios contacted Buckingham and asked him to join the band. Lindsey stipulated that if you want me, you have to take my girlfriend too.  This led to both Buckingham and Nicks meeting the band on December 31, 1974 and becoming members of Fleetwood Mac, a pivotal moment in music history, the band's history and all of their careers.
