* ReCut: The original 1990 CD release of ''Tusk'' replaces the album version of "Sara" with the truncated single edit, in order to keep the album from maxing out the 74-minute limit of a Redbook-adherent Compact Disc (the album in its uncut version is just 25 seconds too long to fit). While 80 minute [=CDs=] had already started to emerge at around this time, they were still relatively pricey compared to their 74-minute counterpart and lacked Redbook authorization, not to mention the fact that ''Tusk'' in its original 1979 release underperformed compared to ''Rumours''. The full version of "Sara" wouldn't be included on CD copies of ''Tusk'' until the remastered special edition in 2004, after which the full 74:25 album would become standard for CD releases.

** The TitleTrack features the USC Trojan Marching Band, also known as the Spirit of Troy. It became an AscendedMeme, since it's now one of the USC band's signature songs during football games. [[http://www.latimes.com/sports/usc/la-sp-usc-alabama-tusk-20160826-snap-story.html Other schools' bands have adopted it too]], much to USC's consternation.

''Tusk'' is the twelfth studio album by Music/FleetwoodMac, released in 1979. It was the eagerly anticipated follow-up to the 1977 classic ''Music/{{Rumours}}'', the top-selling album of that year and one of the biggest hit albums of the decade. The band, and especially singer/guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, wanted to take some risks with ''Tusk''. Compared to ''Rumours'' which had an upbeat pop/rock sound, ''Tusk'' for the most part was a bizarre collection of music influenced by PunkRock and [[NewWaveMusic New Wave]]. The artistic risks to some degree backfired, along with the higher price associated with a double album and the RKO radio network broadcasting the entire album ahead of time, allowing for extensive home taping. While ''Tusk'' still sold in numbers that most bands would only dream of, it was dubbed a commercial disappointment. In the long run, though, it's been remembered as [[VindicatedByHistory one of their best works]].

* GenreRoulette: Due to the diverging interests of the three singer-songwriters. Christine [=McVie=]'s work became a little jazzier; Stevie Nicks mostly stayed true to folk and country rock; and Lindsey Buckingham's songs were a product of his reverence for Music/BrianWilson and his newfound interest in PunkRock and NewWave.
