Default Happy 35 years of Mirage!

Probably the most underrated album by the classic lineup but a fine pop album nonetheless.

I'm loving the deluxe set....... The band was at the top of their game.The best live concert ever. I'm glad to have been there to enjoy those years.

Pure pop/rock greatness. I love everything about the Mirage era. Its when I became a fan. Their voices, their looks, their concerts.... all peak at this time. It was an end of an era before the dry 80's for Mac work and the solo work explosion. Things would never be the same again.

Not one of my favorite albums but it grown on me since I became a fan. I wish I was one back in the day. Everything was perfect. It must've been a fantastic tour judging by the DVD.

I love this album. Straight Back is one of my favorite Stevie songs. Her and Chris' vocals are fantastic on this. I like all the songs on Mirage. Hold Me, EOTW, I could go on.... The deluxe version is amazing. After my mother in law died I found 3 boxes of 78 records in her garage. One of them was Cool Water. I literally laughed out loud when I saw it.

3 of Stevie's best ever songs, Straight Back, That's Alright and Gypsy.

Great album, although some filler from Lindsey and Christine - Empire State, Wish You Were Here, Only Over You.
