Cave Singers Recall Lindsey
[Hey, why the gratuitous slam of John??]
Sydney Morning Herald (Australia) http://www.smh.com.au/news/cd-review...602630565.html Lindsey Buckingham was always the oddest member of Fleetwood Mac's '70s line-up. The witchy woman had the scarves, Mick Fleetwood had his dangling balls and Christine McVie was inexplicably married to John McVie when she seemed much too intelligent. Buckingham, however, was the music magpie and maven who kept threatening to send the band into both wacky and wonderful, sometimes simultaneously. He was why they were always worth hearing. The Cave Singers, to me, are what you might get if Buckingham went country-folk-blues. Peter Quirk sounds like a weary, home-still-fired Buckingham, the music is funereal black at times, backwoods jaunty at others and the songs are filled with drinking, houses of disrepute, departing lovers and Christine galloping past a home "bearing gifts to the ghosts". The tunes sound damned attractive and almost, almost, like pop songs from a slightly altered world. |

This is really weird. Ten days ago I bought this album and immediately fell in love with it. I think it's a masterpiece, played it on my iPod continuously on my bicycletravels to work. (90 minutes per day so I've really "met" this album). I guess this review explains why I love it so much. You all should listen to it!

I don't hear too much Lindsey in it really but I do like it. I think I'll pick up the album soon. Maybe get it as a gift for my upcoming birthday.
Ger, I finally ordered Elliot Brood - Ambassidor today! I can't wait to get it. No idea why I waited so long to order it. |

BTW, if you pick up cave singers you'll also hear the tracks where the Buck-link is a little bit more on the surface. (but never as obvious as on ambassador!)
