Penguin Survivor: Rounds 1-3
 
............................

Round 1: (I'm A) Road Runner
 
Hey, a Penguin survivor is a pretty cool idea. It's not one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac albums, but there are some truly, terrific songs on there anyway. And, I LOVE the cover & the terrific gatefold picture on the inside.

I'll start off with one of the Dave Walker songs. I could really flip a coin to pick one or the other, but I guess I'll go with (I'm A) Road Runner.

Penguin got up to #49 on the U.S. Billboard chart. If that's correct, then immunity to "The Derelict, I guess. :D

P.S. Don't you mean the song with the most votes per round gets eliminated?

Round 1: Night Watch
 
I don't need to see magic shadows... not one of Bob's finest, bit rambling and tedious. I know Road Runner will get voted off but I've always liked it - shame we didn't get Kirwan and Spencer on guitars instead of Welch and Weston for this track - they would have made it rock a lot harder, instead of getting left behind and blown away by Walker's harmonica.

Round 1 - Dissatisfied
 
The title says it all. I've never liked this song.

Round 2: The Derelict
 
I don't see "The Derelict" on the list. I thought it only had immunity for Round 1. :confused: I certainly didn't intend for that song to have permanent immunity. :laugh: If it's still on the list, then I'll vote off The Derelict.

macfan 57 07-25-2005 05:35 AM

It says in the album liner notes that the sleeve design for the Penguin album was designed by Modula. I don't know who or what Modula is. :laugh: The Mystery To Me cover was also designed by Modula(at least it says so in the sleeve notes). It that's correct, then immunity to "Dissatisfied".

ROUND 2---Bright Fire
 
Sorry, Bob

SteveMacD 07-25-2005 12:30 PM

Bright Fire. Even Bob has acknowledged that this wasn't one of his better songs.

Round 2: Night Watch
 
Well, I prefer it to Night Watch :nod:

Round 3: The Derelict
 
I'll go with The Derelict again.

Bob Weston toured with the Long John Baldry Band before joining Fleetwood Mac. If that's correct, then immunity to Dissatisfied.

ontheEdgeof17 07-26-2005 06:58 AM

3: Nightwatch.

The recently departed Long John Baldry (RIP!) :(

Athens, Greece

Immunity to "Night Watch". :D

macfan 57 07-27-2005 05:18 AM

I think they were teargassed in Stockton, CA. If that's correct, then immunity to "Dissatisfied". :)

Round 4: Night Watch
 
Since Dave Walker's songs are finally gone, I'll go with Night Watch, although I still like it.

Upon further review... :cool: yeah...you're correct. Elvin Bishop, Canned Heat & Buddy Miles were also on the bill. Good job! :thumbsup:
