In her induction speech, Nicks relayed how she cautiously broached the subject of recording a solo album without upsetting her Fleetwood Mac bandmates. Record label exec, Paul Fishkin – her boyfriend at the time – said: “If you tell them you’ll always put them first and they will always be at the top of your priority list, they will understand.”
Nicks added: “And, yes, my amazing band is still together and still going strong today.”
It was an oversight, but in her “thank yous,” she never mentioned the members of Fleetwood Mac by name.
