The amount of cocaine they consumed is astounding.
That made me chuckle. I read Stevie Nicks autobiography and she stated she spent millions on the drug. A plastic surgeon told her that her nose could be irreparably damaged to the point of losing her voice which is why she finally checked herself into rehab in 1985.
When I read the book, I eagerly picked up Fleetwood Mac LIVE, which was recorded in 1980. Kind of the peak of when the band was putting bottle caps of coke all over the stage for one to partake while performing.
Stevie's singing on the LIVE album is horrific. More so when you know why. She sounds like she has a cold - all stuffed up! - and when you know the truth it is a hard listen. I jettisoned that album quickly after realizing that the band couldn't stop for one night to ensure they sounded as they should. In fact, they were not even aware that they sounded awful.
