[hayley]

Oh, gross.

[hayley]

And is that a giant avocado? WTF?

[CarneVaca]

Yeah, but did you see the track listing?

Twist of Fate
Deep Dense
Down on Rodeo
Someone's Gotta Change Your Mind
Gift of Screws
Gotta Get Away
My Little Demon
I Don't Want to Wait for You
The Singer Not the Song
Big Yellow Taxi
Have You Ever Been Mellow
Joy of Louise
Brachtwurst

So, it appears Lindsey thinks all his releases have to have "Fleetwood" in them.

[Hawkeye]

:laugh: :laugh: Carne. Really it does suck that the only person we're guarenteed an album from is MICK. I'd take John's Gotta Band Again over this :laugh:

[jwys_soapbox]

This is interesting... It's the cover of the Allman Bros. Eat a Peach...

So is the Todd Wood Mick is working with the same guy who makes the stoves?

[jwys_soapbox]

Yeah, but did you see the track listing?

Where did you get this track listing?!?

[CarneVaca]

A better name for the album would therefore be...


Stoves and Droves

[estranged4life]

And is that a giant avocado? WTF?

s--t, I was expecting to see the following as his album cover:

$$$$$$$$$$$Send...Me...Your...Mon-ey$$$$$$$$$$$

Ditto! Even if Johnny doesn't get the humor.
I will buy this album when it is dirt cheap, and not a second before. :lol:

[kenzo]

I'm no fan of Mick's money-grubbing ways, but I did like the "Zoo" record. Not a fan of "The Visitor", though.

[77Rumours77]

Well if that is an avocado, its very un-ripened. A ripe avocado should be a dark (almost black) green. :thumbsup: :wavey:

[marc402]

i'll be getting this
exiting to see that jeremy is on it in adition to john ;)

[shackin'up]

1. That cover is the best Mac-related cover in at least 10 years.
2. The simple fact that Jeremy Spencer plays on it makes it worth while.
3. And then we have Jackson Browne.
4. And John McVie
5. I'd turn in two Christine McVie-solo-albums for this one unheard, without a blink of an eye.

gerald.

PS: I mean every word above.

[shackin'up]

Oh. In that case: I love unripe avocado's.

[sodascouts]

John

Surely he jests. lol

[jwys_soapbox]

Ok, ha ha all you "fire" yellers. I was thinking that it was odd they'd include "Somebody's Gonna Change Your Mind" given that drums are all but non-existent on that track. :p

Does anyone know anything about this Todd Wood. For all we know, he may be a terrific songwriter and musician.

And if he is, then that's what matters. Mick will just be doing his spongy 4/4 beats, which judging from the SYW songs, is about all he can muster these days.

[SoundBoyBrad]

So true. As a drummer myself, I feel bad. But, at least it DOES keep the steering wheel drumming easy...;)

I can't help but think about the similarity with Lindsey's proposed "Gift of Screws" cover. There's that surreal Magritte/Dali kind of vibe along with the automobile/vegetation theme...

http://www.fleetwoodmac-uk.com/images/covers/gos_cover.jpg

[jwys_soapbox]

The Allmen Bros. cover was used after one of the band members was killed in an accident with a peach truck. Kind of a bit of dark humor. What made me wonder about Mick's cover being an ode to the Allmen Bros one is whether there is some allusion behind the avocado along the lines of the one the peach truck cover suggests. As for the surreal cover, I have never seen that. Perhaps there is some link--especially if Lindsey does show up somewhere on Mick's cd. I could come up with a theory about Lindsey's surrender of his material to FM for SYW being a figurative death of the solo artist and the use of the similar image as a statement to that. My theory would be supported by the fact that "Eat a Peach" was an effort to salvage work the band had done on on a new album prior to the musician's death (his name was Duane Allman, by the way) by recording a bunch of additional stuff, eventually winding up with a double album. But since SYW didn't end up as a double album, my theory would be faulty, wouldn't it.... :rolleyes:

I see the Allman Bros. cover like this: The peach represents the work that Duane Allman participated in, while the truck symbolizes the band's effort to move on, while including--or carrying or containing--Duane's work. All this makes me wonder if the cover has been around for awhile because if it has it seems like it would be better suited as the cover for SYW, with the avocado--a fruit generally associated with California--being a symbol of Lindsey (a Californian) and the truck representing FM and its "carrying" Lindsey's work into a "sellable" product--a FM album.

[Livia]

I'd be the first one in line at Best Buy if "Have You Never Been Mellow" was really on it! :laugh:

[CarneVaca]

Oh, sorry, that was supposed to be Have You Never Been a Mellon.

By the way, is that "proposed GOS cover" real? Or did some fan just make that up?

Christine didnt leave FM, she was a victim of the dreaded avocado and thus is no longer with us...Damn, Then who is that other "Chris" that released the new solo album? Man, talk about a McCartney like replacement :lol: :lol: :lol:

Brian "I played 'Over & Over' backwards and heard the subliminal message 'Chris is dead' :laugh: " j.

I'd buy it if it had "Have You Never Had Marshmallow." ;)

i had never seen that proposed gift of screws cover
i think it is kinda need

[MikeVielhaber]

*raises hand*

[CarneVaca]

Uh, dudes, that "propose GOS cover" strikes me as a fake. I don't see Lindsey in that choice of art at all. It's creepy and more appropriate for a Grateful Dead record or Megadeath or something.

I think it may be about as accurate as the song list for Mick's new cd.

Touche'

:] :]

[cliffdweller]

yeah, with Jackson Browne on lead vocals! :laugh: :shocked:

That's Megadeth. They thought dropping the "a" would make the name more metal or something :thumbsup:.

[shackin'up]

That's Megadeth. They thought dropping the "a" would make the name more metal or something :thumbsup:.

no. just to make us think: whoo, creepy...maybe it has to do with something like....passing away...

i never understood the metalsubculture anyway.

[shackin'up]

Off course it's a fake. I like it though. And if Lindsey supported the visual language of the video "Hold Me", he may like surreal art. A lot of
"Magritte-ness" in that video.

[David]

"Magritte-ness" in that video.As I once demonstrated on another message board, there are scenes & setups that are virtual steals from specific Magritte paintings.

[jwys_soapbox]

Touche'

:] :]

Hee hee hee. I love to take credit for that, but I actually didn't realize that I was responding to the same person who had posted the list. Talk about luck ;)

John

[shackin'up]

Yes, I've noticed that (not the messageboard, but the steals ;) ).

David, do you know if the band had any influence on the idea about this video? (read: did lindsey have anything to do with the initiation or production of it?)

[chiliD]

Diss this new album if you wish, but I'm looking forward to it. I think Mick's two previous solo albums rank up at the top of ALL of their solo albums. The Zoo's I'm Not Me is one of my top 5 favorite FMac solo albums.

is one album I WONT 'diss'...I sent a copy to a friend who said "Man, That album sounds like Paul Simon's "Graceland" but obviously Mick had the African rhythm thing going first".
