It's here.... almost

I was telling somebody on the mail list I'm on that, as far as these Fleetwood Mac cover projects go, I like them when they're quirky & charismatic & even subversive; I don't want to hear somebody try to be Fleetwood Mac any more because I've heard a lot of people try to do that & none of them has succeeded. So the next best thing is to bring a sense of tribute to your cover through your idiosyncrasies & your savvy.

Amen. I don't hate the Legacy tribute, but I don't hear a lot of heart in it. The quality of the renditions on the Patron Saints CD is the sort that still leaves me sometimes trying to figure out if I like it or not, but the spirit of the Patron Saints covers is more...pure or something. It's a spirit that I would tend to think Lindsey would enjoy too. He seemed not at all ungrateful about Legacy, but perhaps somewhat bemused about the idea of it.
