Something Big Review (Uncut UK)
Uncut
http://www.uncut.co.uk/music/the_mic...d/reviews/8456 For his new band project, Mick Fleetwood uses players better known behind the scenes, rather than making it a star-studded affair. Whatever the label says, this is essentially singer/guitarist Todd Smallwood's album. He has a hand in writing all but one of the songs, Fleetwood taking co-credit only on the drum-fuelled "Passion" which, we're sad to relate, is no Tusk. "No Borders" drags on board Fleetwood's long-time partner John McVie and lost Mac slide guitarist Jeremy Spencer. It's a nod to his past on an album that might actually have been exhumed from incarceration 30 years ago. Well intentioned, well executed, but for Fleetwood Mac completists only. |

Ouch. I'd have to assume the writer is not a fan. The album's not that bad. I like the majority of it. There are a couple of weak tracks but overall it holds together generally well.
"Passion" is indeed not "Tusk" but it isn't intended to be either. Nor is the entire album intended to be a Fleetwood Mac style album. Too bad the reviewer didn't take the time to actually listen to it and really appreciate it. I will say that "Blue Again" is a superior album to "Something Big" and fits with Mick's past and drum style, but both are good. Just my humble opinion. |
