Behind The Mask Turns 35 Today (April 9)

[Macfan4life]

I think the song should have been the album opener. That really would have thrown people a curve ball. You can hear that vintage rhythm section humming with John, Mick and Chris not to mention Chris plays keyboards throughout the entire album which is something that had not happened since Mirage. Are they the Mac's best songs ever? Of course not. But these guys are so good even on their bad day can create really good music. Besides Save Me and Skies, its not poppy at all and is a throwback to much earlier Mac albums. I hate Stevie's songs and the way she was layered in her brief appearances. I order and demand all of you to play this album "back to front" 5 times today!
The Brits love this album and Oh Diane. That tells you they must know good music

One of the coolest photos of the BTM era is when the band received their platinum BTM records in the UK.
This video has the best photos of the BTM era. The photo I referenced is at 0:29
