I LOVE THIS. Christine & Lindsey sound so good together. It makes me all the more excited for their new album.

[tango87]

Wonderful! What a thrill to hear this. Makes me very excited about the Buckingham/McVie project too.

[jbrownsjr]

Wow! Please give me some information about the new album!!

please...

[BLY]

What a great demo. I'm going to love this box set and I can't wait for the new album. I really hope it will get the attention it should get without the Fleetwood Mac title. The only reason I can think of them not releasing this " duo" album as a Fleetwood Mac release is there may be a plan to release an album with Stevie in 2018.

[Wdm6789]

Not enough Christine, I can't even hear her. The clicking beat thing is annoying too.

[aleuzzi]

Wow. The demo sounds very 90s, sort of like the production work for OUT OF THE CRADLE. It is not at all in the mid-80s vein of the rest of the record.

And the tune, while unfinished, is catchy.

[Street_Dreamer]

I can definitely see why it didn't make the final cut because it would have been so out of place. I think it would have been a fine fit for Behind The Mask.

I think Stevie made it clear she doesn't want to do an album. I also don't think they can release a new album with the Fleetwood Mac name unless all 5 are on the album. Could be legal bs.

[olive]

it's a nice "DEMO"

I wonder what the "FINISHED " version would sound like

Yes she did. Let's see what she has to say after the release of the Buck/McVie album. As far as the legal bs....I don't know? Say You Will could have been called Buckingham/Nicks.

[Macfan4life]

Love it and I agree with everyone's comments ;)
Its a great demo....I imagine the finished project would have been superb
Its great hearing Chris and Lindsey sing together
It is hard to hear Chris though
It would add a different feel for Tango - something that I would love. I would drop Family Man or Welcome to the Room Sara and put this on in a heart beat.

Legally I'm guessing it has more to do with if Mick and John are involved. But you never know. Mick might have sold away rights to his own name for a buck when he was strapped for cash one of the million times...:shrug:

When Chris left she gave them her unreserved blessing to carry on as FM without her so it would never have been contentious. And Christine tends not to be surrounded by bulldog, big-name managers and lawyers hired to be pitbulls. LB once remarked something along the lines of, "you know Howard will always take care of Stevie" when they were negotiating something.

[secret love]

**** this is catchy!

Please, please drop a Buckingham McVie single late March or early April. I need a little teaser of what's to come. If Where We Belong is any indication, this is going to be a great album. Can't wait for Red Sun, Carnival Begin, Too Far Gone, How I Feel, Lay Down for Free

Knowing them though, slim chance. Bet you $100 US the album doesn't even come out in May as planned.

[madeline]

I am going to buy this album even if I don't like it. I think it is so cool that they are doing this. I really want to support them.

[David]

This is a catchy little thing. I played it over and over again. The article said there's a DVD in the deluxe edition—what's that of?

Something about the instrumental on this demo is very signature Chris McVie piano style to me: my brain is screaming it's Christine playing a keyboard, not Lindsey on a guitar. The fact that it's a guitar timbre may come down to a sequencer or a sampler (like the Fairlight CMI) porting a metallic guitar patch through a keyboard that Christine triggers by playing it like a piano.

Can we just pretend that it's 1982, technology wise, for the new project? Before Lindsey KILLED Tango, with insane production(which of course was him living within the times, but sounds embarrassingly dated, now)? Maybe just people actually PLAYING their instruments? Hard to fathom, I know!:rolleyes:

[Nick]

It's rather short, but I like it. Looking forward to their new recordings.

thanks! i don't see the actual text pasted anywhere (which is giving me some hope that duo album will actually happen) so putting it here for safekeeping:



Hear Fleetwood Mac's Unreleased 'Tango in the Night' Demo 'Where We Belong'

Track co-written by Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie appears on upcoming 30th-anniversary reissue of band's hit 1987 LP

Hear "Where We Belong," a previously unreleased Fleetwood Mac demo from the 'Tango in the Night' sessions, included on a new reissue of the album. Photofest

For the 30th anniversary of Tango in the Night, Fleetwood Mac will reissue the LP, the band's last studio album to date to feature the band's classic Rumours lineup. Alongside remastered versions of tracks like "Seven Wonders" and "Everywhere," the reissue will feature never-before-heard demos and outtakes, like the previously unreleased song "Where We Belong," streaming below.

Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie co-wrote the song and share lead vocals. The track perfectly balances the writing and musical styles of the two members, as Buckingham's folky finger-picking melds seamlessly with McVie's brilliant pop simplicity.

Fleetwood Mac's Tango in the Night reissue will be released on March 31st via Warner Bros. Records and will come in three different versions. The deluxe version will feature three CDs, a DVD and a LP. Last year, the band reissued their 1982 album Mirage.

Later this year, Buckingham and McVie will debut a duets LP under the name Buckingham McVie. The pair have harmonized on numerous classic Fleetwood Mac songs, including Mirage's "Hold Me," Tusk's "Think About Me" and Rumours' "Don't Stop." This will be their first album as a duo.

yes, his sudden death has me worried that whatever deals he put in place for SN vs FM may be re-negotiated now, depending on who her new mgmt is and how hard line they are. i really hope that doesn't run last minute interference with Buck McVie album and it all falls through. :distress:

Everything old is new again. Tango actually sounds pretty fresh, as those 80s synths are hip again.

I know exactly what you mean. Those instincts of hers are screaming at me, as well.

Some it sounds really good. Go back and jam... (have a few drinks first. ) lol

If a band can't (reasonably) replicate the sound live, then it's overdone!:mad:

Then you and I better throw half of our respective collections in the garbage. You know it and I know it...

Keep your heart open and your ears shut tight. What will be will be...

[dreamsunwind]

lol i like tango. i enjoy listening to it in all of its 80s glory.

But that's WHY Tango has never been a favorite. It IS by my favorite band, so of course I (occasionally) listen to it, BUT, BUT BUT, it doesn't sound like a BAND playing. It sounds like a computer programmer placed every note in the exact, proper place. Which is cold and sterile. Much like you know who...:p

Mirage was the last "band" effort, IMO. Mirage kicks Tangos ass.

Well Tango from all accounts wasn't really a proper band effort as it was made. Mick was a drugged out mess, Stevie was there for like 1/16th of the time, I think I read somewhere John was having some major problems with his drinking (idk where I read this tho). That might have had something to do with it sounding too "computer" (although I think it sounds fine tbh, just very 80s). The band members themselves were all a mess and very fractured and not really together enough properly to really record together how they should've. Isn't that kinda why Lindsey always said it was a nightmare to make and why he bailed right after?

Idk tho I guess this is just a matter of different strokes for different folks because I like Tango, it has filler and is super 80s but I honestly like it, the songs off it that I like best I listen to a lot.

[HomerMcvie]

I'm just saying, that it's my least favorite, of
White
Rumours
Tusk
Mirage
Live, and
Tango.

Hands down, my least. I far prefer Live to Tango.

I far prefer Tango to SYW, though. There, how's THAT for some love?!?!:D

Well, SYW was a Lindsey solo album with Mick John and Stevie's solo songs.

It's not even B/N because they really didn't work together.
Buckhingham/McVie: They are actually working together.

Law and Order is one of my favorite albums of all time, and Christine has a presence on there. So, may we deduce that I like most Buck/McVie projects? Well, that don't sound like computers!

He got carried away with the fairlight... But yeah two of our favorite musicians working together = awesome!

[secondhandchain]

I have to say I have only heard this once and can't get it out of my head. so I just listened to it again and really think this would have been fantastic as a finished product. Sounds like they layed it down only once in pure demo form with a drum machine. Should be on the Buckingham Mc Vie album.

The keyboard and guitar sound like midi... and then maybe they just never got back to it...

I have never even heard of this song.

[secondhandchain]

I would have been happy if this song, you and I part 1, and Rickey replaced all of Stevie's songs. This could have been the first Buckingham Mc Vie!;)

Bob Welch should have changed his mind in '75/76, decided to return, and they kept Lindsey, and kicked old twat's her name to the curb.

Now that would've been the ultimate FM.:shocked:

That would really be interesting.

I do like Seven Wonders a lot. One of the things I like about it are the BuckVie harmonies.
