The EP to me is ok just ok.I was more pumped up for the concert on April 20th 2013 than the release of this EP.The songs they performed live from this EP is the ones I do like on the EP the other two songs not thrilled with.My opinion sorry as I duck from dishes being thrown at me..lol. If they come to do an a full new studio album it would have to be as good as Say You Will or better.This EP is not better than Say You Will.Even though I do think Sad Angel is a studio outtake from Say You Will,Sad Angel is the strongest song on the EP in my opinion.I will not be purchasing this EP on Itunes because I am old school prefer a cd and I do use cd players or cd walkman to listen to my music.That is just me. I chose from above Lindsey's 40 Soundtrack and Stevie's You Can't Fix This Sound City Reel to Real soundtrack.You Can't Fix This is a great strong rocker that has fleetwood mac all over it. I am a die hard fan I do think its ok to be critical to I am not going to say the EP is awesome amazing best thing that FM has done because that is not true at all.I won't just say I am crazy about it so they can go ahead and make an album.I am being honest with my opinion.Others will love it or hate it, been a die hard fan of FM since 1979,It's ok to be critical of my favorite band I am being honest.They will probably do a full album at the end of the year and release it next spring and tour again in the summer of 2014 that is my opinion its mean't to be it will happen.April 20th 2013 was my last high priced concert to attend to glad I went had great seats and had a blast.It was an awesome show to make it my last.I am getting older to be going out to the shows so glad was able to go this time around.

Oh my god.I hope I get earplugs,LOL.

I like to hear her voice.Not noisy guitars.I can tolerate Lindsey's because he's the best But I cant tolerate 1990's grunge crap rock backing Stevie and who ever else singing.

lol I do like some 1990's grunge bands like Nirvana and Alice In Chains I am totally a classic rock fan I tend to lean torwards Alice In Chains more than Nirvana but I do like both. I do love the production and lyrics and the rockin sound of You Can't Fix This to me it's totally a Fleetwood Mac song just love it.Maybe she should have saved it for them and record it and it should have been on the EP.

The song's composition is credited to Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins in addition to Stevie. So I don't think it was hers to do whatever she wanted with it.

I don't know to me "You can't fix this" doesn't really sound like grunge rock. It's somewhere between grunge rock and just atmospheric classic rock.
If grunge rock means Foo fighters for you then of course you hate it, but there are also some quality bands (Pixies mainly, but also Throwing muses or early PJ Harvey).

I don't like the this is 40 songs which you lumped in with my favorite song anyone in the band has done this decade so I can't really decide right now. Although I've grown to at least like all four EP songs, I have a hard time with Lindsey calling it takes time a fleetwood Mac song. No Stevie is one thing, but no. Mick and John is another. If it closed a 13 14 song album I feel a lot more accepting of the song.

By that logic then Never Going Back again isn't a Mac song either...

...or "Landslide" or "The Second Time" or "Make Me a Mask."

the EP and I are still getting to know each other and I haven't heard any of the This is 40 songs so I really can't comment. I'm liking the EP so far but I think the line between Lindsey Buckingham solo and Fleetwood Mac is almost nonexistent at this point. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as I am a big fan of Lindsey's solo work. I've said this before but Fleetwood Mac will never be Fleetwood Mac for me without Christine, both on stage and on record.
