Fleetwood Mac /BuckMcVie.......10 tracks.
So I was listening to this amazing album today and realized the reason it only has 10 tracks is because Lindsey kept it open for 3 or 4 Stevie tracks. Oh what this album could have been......

But i love me some BuckVie. I've not taken it out of my car rotation since it came out, June 9th of 17. Yes, I remember the date. I had 14 days to learn every song by heart, for the second show of the tour.

Not that long ago I started fiddling with the track list and added Belle Fleur, Lady, The Dealer, If You Were My Love, and Sad Angel/Miss Fantasy to replace some Lindsey songs. 15 tracks may be a bit heavy, but it makes me happy.

I like your additions but I would not replace any of Buckinghams songs from this album. His songs were so obviously open for Stevie’s contribution. |

I've never cared for Lay Down For Free. It's too repetitious, and sounds like a drum machine, instead of Mick.

Really? I know you said you have had it on repeat play since release so I can’t say “ Give it another listen” 😎 but....... I just love the vocals so I guess I most be a bit deaf to the drums. |

The weakest song on the album by a long shot.

That's why I never cared which "song" got put on an album. What makes a Fleetwood Mac album sound like Fleetwood Mac is Fleetwood Mac's recording treatment of all those songs (also considering that they haven't always done cool things to songs). Long way of saying that what prevents Buckingham McVie from completely sounding like a Fleetwood Mac album is Stevie's singing, not her songs. A Fleetwood album has never been just a playlist, and a playlist is never a Fleetwood album. That idea of what Fleetwood Mac sounds like with Lindsey helping (or handling) production and arrangement is also at the heart of the disappointment with his departure. I like hearing The Chain played the way he played it with Mick drumming (particularly in 1978 and 1980), and that's now dead. That's what I missed in 1987 at the Forum, and that's what I miss today. The fact that The Chain is still part of today's set means nothing to me (just as it meant nothing to me as part of the 1990 set). The fact that Gold Dust Woman was part of the 1994 set meant nothing to me (other than a mild curiosity). I'm attracted (or not) to what I hear, not to the mere presence of something to pay tribute or fulfill a legacy or meet a marketing expectation. Of course, sometimes the cover job really does excite me based on what I hear: for example, I seem to recall hearing an old concert from the Welch years where Bob did Black Magic Woman. I loved it. Bob was ferociously good on guitar on that. (Did you guys ever hear that?) My two.

Someone sent me a DVD of it, about a decade ago. I'm not sure if they're on Youtube or not. Pretty interesting stuff, especially if you already know the Tusk doc. Some behind the scenes bitching, and eye rolls at others, $tevie in the studio...trying to tell them what $he wants a song to sound like...and NOBODY is listening to her, and $he's twirling her finger around the side of her head...to indicate that they're crazy, etc... It's a must have, for mega fans.

Given that she didn't show up I was more disappointed that they didn't find a few more Chris-led tracks to fill up the gaps. They must have had some kicking around given how much they were said to have been doing together.
