You should listen to Time though, if only so that you can say "I didn't like that". The argument is an old one though - Bekka doesn't get the respect she deserves because she was a follow-up to Stevie Nicks - very big shoes to fill. However, if you sit down to appreciate Bekka for her own talent, and forgetting that she replaced Stevie, and forgetting if you want that she was even in Fleetwood Mac, I think you'll discover a very talented woman with a knockout voice. |

Well...
Her tracks off the album are Dreamin' The Dream, Nothing Without You and Winds of Change. She also does duet/backing vocals with Billy on Talkin' To My Heart, and some great backing vocals on Dave's Blow By Blow and I Wonder Why (although the latter of these is open to discussion as to whether she can be a bit screechy at the end over the great Dave Mason guitar bit). Personally I think Dreamin' The Dream is one of the most beautiful songs to come out of Fleetwood Mac - ever. Right up there with Beautiful Child by Stevie Nicks and Man of the World by Peter Green. Plus, if you want to hear a bit more of Bekka's solo stuff (and of course you do) then go here http://www.myspace.com/bekkabramlett/music/playlists EDIT Oh and something else I should mention, her voice has matured a lot since she left Fleetwood Mac, it is way better now than it was then. Go and find "Stay Down In New Orleans" - a brilliant song by Bekka. Last edited by chriskisn; 05-19-2010 at 07:10 AM.. |

Talkin' to my Heart is my favorite non-Christine song on the album. It's a wooonderful duet.
It's funny to me that groups like Lady Antobellum and Big Little Town etc etc want to be Rumours-era Mac, but can't even get close to "Talkin' to My Heart" much less "Go Your Own Way" . . . p.s. -- I like Bekka but I would still rank her third to Stevie and Christine who are epic goddesses who influenced music and culture for a reason . . . and their distinctive, special voices had a looot to do with it. Not that Bekka's voice doesn't have personality, cuz it do.
