Favourite Fleetwood Mac album

How do I stuff the ballot box for Tusk?

[Mr Scarrott]

Then Play On, followed by Mystery to Me and Tusk. Rumours is just so burned into my psyche and central nervous system that it's almost impossible to appreciate it as a work of art in its own right any more, if that makes any sense.

Why on earth is BTM even up for consideration?

Thanks, I'll give these a listen. A bit before my time, I'm not familiar with the albums before Future games. Great to see Tusk is so popular these days. I thought Rumours would be the most popular, but I guess it's fame has gone against it, if that makes any sense. Tusk is my 2nd fave, so I'm very happy to see this album is so appreciated today, far more than back in1979. I saw them on this tour, so this is a very special album to me, and Stevie (my fave of this line-up's 3 writers) was at her peak on this album. My only gripe is that there wasn't enough Stevie songs on Tusk. Dealer should have been included, and I hate to say it but I'm not all that keen on all of Lindsey's songs on Tusk. I still can't believe they released Not that funny as a single here in the UK? Rich.

No, BTM isn't a patch on the 5 albums that came before it. It really needed Lindsey! It's not too bad though, and with Stevie and Chris on board , I though it might be someone's fave and sure enough it has a vote. I wish I could have included all albums, but the polls only allow 10 options. Only Future games is without a vote. I love this album. This and Bare trees are my fave pre-Buckingham and Nicks Mac albums. Danny Kirwan wrote some great stuff and had a very rich distinctive voice. Rich.
