RUMOURS & MIRAGE and, to a SLIGHT lesser extent Fleetwood Mac (1975)

And, increasingly, ALL Fleetwood Mac albums. I'm finding myself less & less inspired to play their albums at all (well, except for the live stuff from the Peter Green era).

I think the Madison Blues set has only gotten one or two listens since I bought it...I don't seem to gravitate toward that album at all.

These days, I'm more into listening to the Allman Bros Band, Little Feat, & the Grateful Dead....I'm in a "jam band" phase right now.

Have you ever picked up Winwood's About Time... It's so much better than his latest 2008 release... About Time is a jam band album with Latin rhythms...

Agreed. It's Winwood's best in years.

After playing Steve's latest about 200 times already, I just can't imagine that he's got a non-Traffic album any better than this latest one (which sounds an awful lot LIKE Traffic, come to think of it).

But, since About Time is the only Winwood album I DON'T have, I'll have to take your word for it. Note to self: scrounge up some bucks to get "About Time"

It's no John Barley... but the new album is just ok for me...

the same here, I'm to the point I rarely even play any Fleetwood Mac officially released music these days.

I'm in a death metal/black metal phase at this time...with occasional blues tossed in.

I listen to them all from time to time, even my least favs. I at least have a couple songs on every single album I like, and have to drag out and hear from time to time. Probably the album I listen to least is Behind The Mask... Mirage is probably right up there too. I like Mirage when I listen to it, I don't know why I never just pop it in *shrugs*.

The one I listen to least is "Say You Will." It just doesn't do it for me. It's missing Christine's songs.
