Buckingham Nicks Vinyl Review | Rhino High Fidelity vs Polydor Original

In this video, I compare the brand-new Rhino High Fidelity AAA reissue of Buckingham Nicks with an original 1973 Polydor pressing. This long out-of-print album hasn’t seen a proper reissue in nearly 40 years, making this release especially important for fans and collectors. The Rhino edition, mastered all-analog from the original master tape by Kevin Gray, offers exceptional clarity, resolution, and presence—all trademarks of the Rhino High Fidelity series. By contrast, the original pressing has a warmth and natural musicality that continues to make it special. We’ll dig into the sound of both versions, highlight the strengths of each, and I invite you to listen, compare, and let me know your thoughts in the comments. Buckingham Nicks also holds a key place in music history: the record led to Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks being invited to join Fleetwood Mac, setting the stage for the legendary 1975 self-titled album. Featuring standout tracks like “Crystal” and “Frozen Love,” this is an album every rock and vinyl fan should know.
