Fleetwood Mac
Thanks for the acknowledgement Brian.
In my opinion it doesn't really bother me that they are releasing a greates hits package later this year. I guess I'm just questioning as to what's going to be on it?! They really haven't had a "great" hit since the last greatest hits package was released. Maybe they'll include songs from the whole Mac catalogue....back to the Peter Green era.....which would be cool. I think alternate and/or live versions of hits would be a good idea too. Another possibility would be to call it a best of package and include songs that became popular but weren't really "hits"...... "Gold Dust Woman, "The Chain", "Landslide", and "World Turning". I think they could do it right.
I haven't felt the same about Fleetwood Mac since the late 80s. They really haven't been a working band for a long time and they treat their "band" careers as hobbies, not as a true desire or burning flame.
It doesn't surprise me or disappoint me that I have to wait until 2003 to hear the NEW record....I'm used to waiting by now.
