I definitely agree... I'd chose something for the teacher that is a bit less well known than the choices you provided. Something a bit on the avant garde side, even. |

To a newbe I say here's Tusk. Learn it. Love it. Live it. No seriously. I would start them off with The Chain and the dance version of Silver Springs.

Ok, everyone and their uncle knows Rhiannon (even though I hold undying love for it) so, I'd go with The Chain.
From a chorale perspective, you'll probably snag the teacher because of the absolutely amazing harmonies between Stevie, Chris, and Lindsey. The music is superb, arrangement impeccable, and the lyrics are simple, yet, very deep and mesmerizing. You may just win a new convert to Fleetwood Macdom! |

Exactly. Pick something that would expand someone's mind about Fleetwood Mac. That they were more than just their radio hits. Or that they were more than just a pop band (perhaps something avant garde from Tusk or SYW). Or since it's a chorale teacher, pick a song that really showcases their lush vocals (for instance, Stevie and Lindsey's voices are extremely lush on Beautiful Child).

The Ledge or Brown Eyes.

Of those choice Sisters of the Moon is the only logical choice. The Chain is a big radio song as is Rhiannon. Those would be wasteful. Honestly since he's a dude I'd say pick a Lindsey song...he might identify with it more....and pick one that has some nice guitar work on it. I'm So Afraid from the Dance is a good option I think. It has that nice jam at the beginning and the long solo at the end and Lindsey's in fine vocal form throughout. Just a thought.

Ok, so i've given some more thought...i definetly want to pick a TUSK song so he knows there's more to the Mac than just "Go Your Own Way", but i don't want to scare him away from listening to Fleetwood Mac again by choosing a really IN YOUR FACE song like "Not That Funny". So i may play it just a little safer by either picking "Think About Me", "I Know I'm Not Wrong", "Sisters of The Moon". I've also been recently listening to MIRAGE...and i've been thinking - what about "Book of Love"? I am in love with that song, and it does have a bit of Tusk influence.
Just some thoughts

Brown Eyes is instrumental perfection! So many subtle, beautiful sounds! And Christine's singing (while not too deep and meaningful with the lyrics), along with the sha-la-las, only adds to it. Definitely Brown Eyes!
Or Silver Springs... Or Albatross...

Try Tango in the Night......But then again I have a bias toward that song. After 4 years that one's still in heavy rotation
