What You Have Not Heard

Yeah, that's what keeps me from spending over a hundred dollars (of my parent's money) on one trip to Barnes & Noble. I see lots of things I like, but I always just ask myself "Am I actually going to read this if I own it?" Too often, the answer is no, and that is what makes me put it back. The same goes for music, although I have more of a problem with that. I don't need anymore Mac music right now because what I have is enough to spend a year listening to, but, in the back of my mind, I'm like, Hey, they've got Future Games...haven't heard that one yet...okay, do I need it to listen to now?...NO, don't need it right now...but...I must have all the FM CDs! I can just ask Mom for one...no biggie... I bet I won't do that when it's my own money, though.

She sings it about a male in it, so maybe you might not like it as well as her gender-ambiguous songs? "Sands of Time", "Woman of 1,000 Years," and "Sometimes" by Danny Kirwan are all absolutely perfect. Then there's Bob Welch's epic "Future Games." Oh, and that funky sax work by John Perfect on "What A Shame." The whole album has this ethereal, relaxing feel that I adore. If you like some of Stevie's folkier writings, you'll probably like Future Games.

So, I commend you for your decision to not spend so much on Fleetwood Mac music. Wait to buy Future Games, but make sure you buy it eventually.

Cool! Thanks for your review of it, Justin. Makes me more excited about it than before. I definitely will get it eventually.

I have all Mac stuff from the White Album to present. Plus Bare Trees. From the blues era, just what I got at the Chain boxset.

STevie: Timespace, Enchanted & TISL. But I'd like to have Bella Donna
Lindsey: His 3 solos, but I just like OOTC
Christine: Her solo cd from the 80s.

I'm a mac guy, Rumours lineup.
