Buckingham Nicks was a 10-track LP by Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. The album, produced and engineered by Keith Olsen, was recorded in 1973 for Polydor Records. It was released that September and proved to be a commercial failure. The album has since gained cult status. It was reissued in 1976 when Mr. Buckingham and Ms. Nicks hit the big time with 'Fleetwood Mac'.

A short tour through the American south commenced after the release of the album; Mr. Buckingham and Ms. Nicks had already joined 'Fleetwood Mac', but the band was still committed to the dates which had been scheduled. Bootlegged concert recordings have recently surfaced on fan-sites and on peer-to-peer trading sites of two concerts in Tuscaloosa and Mobile. The touring band consisted of Tom Moncrieff on bass (who later played bass on Ms. Nicks' first solo album Bella Donna), Bob Aguirre (from Fritz) on drums, and Gary "Hoppy" Hodges who played drums on the album. Mr. Moncrieff and Mr. Hodges later formed the band Sinai 48 with a new singer-songwriter duo in 2006, marking the first reunion of any members since disbanding, aside from the continued collaboration of Mr. Buckingham and Ms. Nicks.

Despite the enduring popularity of both of its key contributors, the album was never officially released on CD. Bootlegs dubbed from vinyl have circulated since the late 1980s. It has become one of the most requested titles for CD release. In 2003, 'Rhino Records' announced the album's pending release as a deluxe CD with bonus tracks; however, the CD was never released. Mr. Buckingham and Ms. Nicks share ownership of the album. Though Ms. Nicks has expressed some willingness for a CD release, Mr. Buckingham has not. Two songs have been issued on CD so far: "Long Distance Winner" was released as part of Ms. Nicks' "Enchanted" box set and "Stephanie" turned up on a 1992 promo CD Mr. Buckingham put out titled "Words and Music (A Retrospective)". Another song from the album, "Crystal", was recorded by the revamped 'Fleetwood Mac' for the group's 1975 breakthrough, Fleetwood Mac. "Don't Let Me Down Again" was re-recorded by 'Fleetwoood Mac' for their live album and also, "Frozen Love" was peformed several times during the tour to support the Fleetwood Mac album.

On an interview on 'WRLT' 100.1 Nashville (September 11, 2006), Mr. Buckingham has expressed an interest in the album seeing the light of day on CD. He also mooted the possibility of a future joint Lindsey Buckingham-Stevie Nicks tour in the next few years to support the re-release. The previous band-members Tom Moncrieff and Gary Hodges have also expressed interest in reuniting with Buckingham and Nicks in a possible future tour.
