Beat me to it by 6 minutes!

Yeah I love the loook of this art. It's got a real Bare Trees atmosphere. Very provocative!

So John Shanks co-produced Peacekeeper? These days individual songs can have different producers than the album as a whole I see. Well, he did a stand-out job with TISL so I don't mind Lindsey making some room for him at the mixing board.

[BlueGrass]

Wow, surprised John Shanks co-produced but I'm excited!

[estranged4life]

is all over the place (Production & song wise...) these days. The latest release from Keith Urban has 2 songs co-written by John Shanks including the #1 country track "Somebody Like You" (Which has a TISL type sound & solo to it)...Kinda ironic that John Shanks, In the past year, Has worked with 2 guitarists who have the same playing style-Lindsey Buckingham & Keith Urban...Brian J.

Thanks for the link Brian!! Interesting that they use THAT for the ad, instead of a FM photo..hmm...makes me wonder what the cover of SYW will look like!!

[Hawkeye]

I'm thinking those four hands are each one member of the band. The small tiny one is Stevie's obviously. I agree with the Bare Trees feel.

[jwys_soapbox]

They don't look like white people's hands to me. It may be that the fact the pic is in black and white makes the skin look more tan. I don't think they are the band members hands. I hope this is not a sign of the upcoming album art. I was hoping for some nice painting a la Tango (a print of which has been a part of my decor for 15 years now) not some "who is it" thing like Behind the Mask.

On the other hand, use of the hands helps explain Lindsey hand poses for the recent promo pics. Maybe they're going for some theme to trip us all out on hands.

[wondergirl9847]

NOT the band members' hands...blow that picture up....if that is
Stevie's hand....I am reminded of a Seinfeld episode...

...MAN HANDS!!! LMAO!!! I know Stevie doesn't have MAN HANDS!!

That one hand has a GIGANTIC thumb too!! DANG!!!!!!

Single produced by Lindsey Buckingham and John Shanks. Album produced by Lindsey Buckingham.

And then the announcement of the downloadable songs notes that "Peacekeeper" will be the "album cut version."

I'm wondering if we'll be hearing a different version of the track on the radio, than what we'll find on the album.

Ahhh thanks for clarifying that Johnny Stew. I didn't see where it said Lindsey does the album by himself. And the idea of separate cuts? I love it! Give the plebs the glossy candy, give us the Buckingham!

[ERigby818]

Well, of couse they are!:rolleyes: Thats why it doesn't need to be said! I think that looks kinda silly. But I guess it is just a poster.:shrug: I also think the pic is kinda corny, though I do like the Bare Trees feel. I would rather there were something more ironic and thought-provoking, like the song.
I agree John Shanks did great work on TISL...he'll probably do nice work on this too.

They missed a real chance here!!!
I thought LOVE was... the sweet
surprise...not dirty hands!!!:distress:
Is that why LB is holding his hands
they are covered with ink!:confused:???
Isn't this rather...like Dumb???:eek:Sky

ps...Reminds me of LITTLE LIES!!! haha!;)

[iamstevienicks]

Oooh I spy four of them on ebay now

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

hands be Mick's, And all 4 full of dollars??? ;);) $$$$$ ;);) Brian J.

[wondergirl9847]

Oh, but Pip, Mick wouldn't be HANDING OVER the money!! :eek:

[Cristian]

...but then you'd have to include THE KNIGHT. Perhaps he is the fifth Fleetwood Mac member, who knows.

Song of the moment - Peacekeeper

[Mike B]

I don't really like the ad. I'm not sure what they are trying to convey. I think someone is trying too hard to be esoteric or to illustrate that this is an "important" song. I'd much rather see the band up there, not four random hands.

(God, I hate how negative I've become over every move this band makes lately...)

No way....Mick would never have it: it would mean the concert money would have to be split FIVE ways....:D

:wavey: :wavey: :wavey:

For a song called "Peacekeeper" the picture makes sense to me as hands reaching out to each other for help or reaching out to each other in peace.

If it turns out to be album artwork too, it also works as hands of invitation which goes with "Say You Will."

I don't know. I like abstract art and photography. I'll take this over another reworking of the Rumours pose superimposed on another crystal ball. ;)

[sodascouts]

I don't hate the photo, but I think they could do better. Of course the first time I saw it I thought "Shaking hands a la peace" but I hope they go for something a little more provocative and less simplistic. Besides (unless the colors are somehow muted because of scan) the plain, dull lack of color is the complete opposite of eye-catching. It would just fade into the rack.
