And listen to John's lead guitar on "You Can't Go Back to Kansas" at Magic Mountain -- that's Lindsey Buckingham, man! I don't mean this to denigrate John, but the "Bombs Away" album is like a Fleetwood Mac tribute album (& it's twenty times better than the fake "tribute" that Mick put together in 1998): it has Lindsey's trademark guitar & production sound (both of whom did guitars & production), it has Stevie Nicks on a couple of things, it was recorded at Fleetwood Mac's hangouts (Larrabee, Village Recorder, Wally Heider), & Herb Worthington even did the photography!
