I've always liked the album, not too long ago I played it again for the first time in a long time. I think it holds up pretty well, although it has a very 80's feel, it's not so time locked as say "Rock A Little" is. "Little Lies" is a classic and Lindsey's title track is among his best. You can tell that Stevie literally phoned in her parts. In fact everytime I hear "Little Lies" and Stevie's lines come up I'm reminded of the reason for that is because she wasn't originally on the song at all.
I bought the LP when this was released, but it skipped so I ended up getting the cassette, when I got my first CD played in '88 "Tango" was one of the first batch of CD's I got. I loved that all of the singles had a 12" counterpart with extended versions. |

The LP I had skipped like crazy, even though I bought it brand new! Was there a production defect??

For those too young to have any idea of what we are talking about, occasionally with a vinyl record they would skip, that is the song would either repeat one line over and over until you moved the needle or it would just jump over a line. This was most often caused by having a dull needle, but could also have been the way the record was made. When they put more than 15mins per side, the grooves had to be placed closer together so the odds of skipping was greater. |

It was the same for me! I bought my first copy of the LP the day it was released, and over the next two days, I had to keep exchanging it. In fact, "Tango" was actually the very reason I bought a cd player! I kept returning copies of the album, and then finally I accepted the fact that I was not going to hear this music if I kept opting for the LP, so I broke down and got the cd.

I didn't have any trouble with mine. Maybe it was from another master.

I have residual affection for "Tango" but I don't listen to it. It was an interesting -- & pretty -- burst of renewed energy in my Macophilia in 1987, but it's got a sterility to it.

The album marked the end of an era for the band. After "Tango" everything changed. As a swan song (it is the last studio album by the Rumours line-up) it's a strong album to go out on. |

I've got to admit that Tango always has been and probably always will be my favourite Mac album.
It's due to "Everywhere" that I became addicted to the band. I also love "Seven Wonders", it's one of those songs that I have to unexplainably play LOUD. I guess it's one of those albums that you either love or hate. |

The only other song I'm really not too keen on is You and I... otherwise I think it's a great album. Yes, it's very 80s and different for the Mac but it still works. I just wish that they played the title track live, just once! Imagine being able to shout that great TAAAANNNGOOOO at the top of your voice while it's being played right in front of you! Love it!

Always wondered how much better that album could've been had Stevie been "on the ball"...

Love it! Tango seemed to do really well over here if i remember rightly and i was only about 12or13 at the time, almost everybody i knew seemed to have a copy and if it wasn't for this album and Big Love i don't know if i'd have ever become a fan as i wasn't familar with any of the earlier stuff, My parents didn't even have a copy of Rumours(Oh the Shame!)
