Hello--- I'm particularly fond of Kirwan's "Woman of a Thousand Years", and "Dust". Iwould include both in a "Best" CD for Pre-Rumours Fleetwood Mac. Other Danny fans, help me here. Best always, Madelow.:wavey:

[I resent the idea that just because Lindsey may or may not have been using cocaine when he wrote this song (and we know he most definitely was using pot) that doesn't mean he didn't write the music with a most sober attention to detail.]

From Pitchfork Media:

Fleetwood Mac: "Never Going Back Again"

One imagines something flawless being born in a relaxed atmosphere, over time, when one has the mental clarity, soundness of judgment, and sober disposition in which to get every detail right. That's the mood conveyed by this song, and yet it was probably written on the fly by a young Lindsey Buckingham somewhere in the vicinity of a mountain of cocaine. No matter-- the clarity of his guitar picking, and the way it patiently winds around the chord progressions, is like watching a master weaving a blanket, a marvel of musical design.

Too bad to put Blue Letter as Lindsey's best song: It wasn't even written by the great man himself, but by Richard Curtis.
