Default Tusk

What are your guys general thoughts on Tusk? I didn't see a Tusk thread anywhere, so I thought I'd start this one. I personally really like it and all of the wicked grooves found through the tunes, especially miss mcvie's. My favorite tune on the whole thing is the title track. I hope I can write a song half as groovy as that one in my lifetime. Shame Bucko really dropped the ball over the rest of the album. As far as Nicks goes, I love Sara. Wow, what a tune. I guess what are your general impressions on Tusk?

To promote discussion, you've been assigned the task of making Tusk 12 songs long instead of 20. Pick the 12 you would include.

I haven't heard it in awhile, but I always liked the mellow atmosphere of most of it. I also like songs that last about 2 minutes.

It has a bothersome wet signal in the sound field that I don't really like. I prefer the dry, compressed signal throughout Rumours.

I would hardly say Lindsey "dropped the ball" as far as the rest of his contributions. Did he include the rest of the band as much as he could have? Definitely not, but most of his tracks are still pretty great regardless.

Twelve Tusk, in the original order, just omitting:
1. The Ledge
2. Think About Me
3. Save Me a Place
4. What Makes You Think You're the One
5. Sisters of the Moon
6. Angel
7. That's Enough For Me
8. Never Make Me Cry
9. Beautiful Child
10. Walk a Thin Line
11. Tusk
12. Never Forget

I so love the Tusk album. I avoided it at first...couldn't quite get into it. But once I sat and gave it a complete listen...have loved it ever since. Cutting it down to 12 was tough It was hard letting go of Save Me a Place, but...oh, this was hard!!!

Over and Over
The Ledge
Sara
What Makes You Think You're the One
That's All for everyone
Not That Funny
Sisters of the Moon
Angel
Brown Eyes
I Know I'm Not Wrong
Beautiful Child
Tusk
