Default Peacekeeper Review from Billboard

Great Review!

FLEETWOOD MAC "Peacekeeper" Reprise

With Dixie Chicks' smash "Landslide" raising consciousness for Fleetwood Mac, the timing couldn't be better for the release of new material from the evergreen act (sans Christine McVie). "Peacekeeper," written by Lindsay Buckingham with lead vocals shared by Stevie Nicks, is vintage-quality Mac, familiar in its style and structure, and yet fresh and spirited enough to maintain appeal after countless spins. Support for the new project is reaching manic proportions: The single was showcased on NBC's Third Watch last month, a mega-tour is in the wings, Dateline has a profile planned, and the single is being offered as a download for $1.49 at the Reprise Web site. AC will have a field day, but there's no reason the grade-A "Peacekeeper" won't be sampled at radio across the board. A grand return and a hands-down hit.

Awesome...thanks for posting. It's great to hear such a good review from an established magazine like Billboard. Now, if they just learned to spell LindsEy correctly

Nice.
I wonder if they mean NBC wil do a Dateline special. If so, I'm psyched. I wonder if Stevie will flirt with Stone Phillips (he always interviews celebs and makes the gals blush )

I wonder if Lindsey gets as pissed off as we do when they spell his name wrong?

Thumbs up Thank you very much!

Excellent! I just copied this review & sent it to two DJs at my local, rock radio station out of Atlantic City. Maybe this will help get Peacekeeper get played, but I won't hold my breath.
