A New Fans Random Thoughts, Good And Bad

[David A]

Ok All

I am a new FM / LB Fan and I have finally finshed almost 1 year of reading, listening, and watching. And Im gonna post my thoughts, and I know some you might agree with and dis agree with, but heres what I think

What I think:
- I cant believe that The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac has actually sold more copies than Say You Will And Even The Live In Boston DVD. Makes me wonder if there were really people who actually wanted and or want New Things from Fleetwood Mac

- Lindsey getting so much positive attention , both from concert people and the record company, from his Under The Skin album and tour I think caught me really surprised. I was shocked that Warners would back him. Makes me so mad they they didn’t support him back in the day

- - I think Lindsey actually respects and is proud of FM more so now than ever. Does make me scratch my head that when they were in their hey day, how he could not have respected them and the band at that point ? I mean, I love Lindsey, but the man should know that if it wasn’t for that band, he would not be living where lives today, and he would not enjoy the riches that he has. As much as I love the mans music, it is the FM stuff that has enjoyed him his life style. I think Lindsey might have been trying to bite the hand that feeds back in the day

- - Stevie’s solo stuff is just plain ordinary, I never have understood the fascination with it, I mean if you take away BELLA DONNA, what is left ? I mean, I still don’t get how Behind The Music said she has sold 50 million albums, I don’t know what math they are using

- - I think Tusk is a brilliant album

- - I think Fleetwood Mac and The Eagles are the 2 greatest rock bands of all time. Even though I think FM actually loves one another NOW , where as Eagles strike me as strictly co workers in a music machine, I just don’t feel the closeness from them at all

- Don Henley is 100 % more arrogant than Lindsey at his worst, and I think Lindsey had his arrogant days
