Fleetwood Mac: Tusk. A tapestry of many colors, this double album of melodious pop rock projects the composite talents of the five who comprise Fleetwood Mac. Their musical interplay is subtle, provocative, & pleasing, with such ballads as "Sara," "Storms," "Not That Funny," "Brown Eyes" & the thrilling title tune. Drummer Mick Fleetwood & bass player John McVie, whose collaboration goes back a dozen years, provide a sturdy base for vocals featuring singing composers Nicks, C. McVie, Buckingham.

ballads like not that funny and the thrilling titletune. I've heard a lotta crap about these great earpiercing gems, but never that they were ballads. Maybe they are!!!!.
