Lindsey Buckingham Christine McVie (also referred to as simply Buckingham McVie) is a studio album by Fleetwood Mac vocalists Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie, released on June 9, 2017. Four of the five members of Fleetwood Mac are featured on the album, with contributions from drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie. Vocalist Stevie Nicks is the sole member absent from the album. The album sold over 22,000 units in the US in its first week and debuted within the top 20. It proved to be even more successful in the UK, where it debuted within the top 5. In November 2017, the album was also certified silver with sales exceeding 60,000 units.

A few months after Christine McVie rejoined Fleetwood Mac in 2014, she and guitarist Lindsey Buckingham went to Studio D at the Village Recorder in Los Angeles to rebuild some chemistry. The band had previously used the studio to record their 1979 album Tusk. To flesh things out, the rhythm section of Mick Fleetwood and John McVie came to the studio to make some additional contributions. By the end of the two-month session, they had already laid down eight songs, including "Carnival Begin", "Too Far Gone" and "Red Sun". Recording was then put on hold when Fleetwood Mac began preparations for their On with the Show tour.

While Buckingham and McVie were able to rekindle their musical chemistry during these sessions, neither of them expected this project to progress any further.

In 2015, Stevie Nicks announced her plans to work with Fleetwood Mac in the studio, and claimed that the band had plenty of material to work with. However, she later rescinded those promises, and sessions were backed up even further. Nicks instead opted to go on tour for her solo album 24 Karat Gold: Songs from the Vault. McVie and Buckingham ultimately decided to release the album as a duo rather than wait for Nicks to participate. Work commenced at the end of 2016, more than two years after the initial recording sessions.
