But musically, Out of the Cradle. I've said it before and I'll say it again... if that or something like it had been his FIRST solo album.... it feels like his solo career may have gone a different track.

It's weird for me to love something so....eclectic. I'm more mainstream than that. But I was at the height of my fandom. I f*cking LOVE it.

Wellll... it's... a....long, long time.....So f*cking quirky!

And I totally agree. OOTC OOTG(out of the gate) would have led him down a far more popular path. But quirky guy doesn't show his face much these days.

Yes, after Tusk, nobody trusted him for solo work. He made enemies of the commerce folks.

As I have said many times before…If OOTC was released in 1988 or 1989 this album would have been a mega hit.

HE seems to pray to the commercial gods these days.........do you think he has regrets over not doing so when he was young?

It's obviously better for your bottom line to sell a million, than 10K. But he's single again, so....

The goal should always be to create something you're happy with. Because if it fails, you don't make any $$ nor do you like it!

I am not a huge Tango fan. But if you could switch out Lindsey's Tango songs for OOTC songs, then I would be converted to be officially a Tango lover. Keep the title track for the album. I can only imagine:

Tango in the Night
Seven Wonders
Everywhere
Countdown
Soul Drifter
Mystified

Little Lies
Welcome to the Room Sara
Doing What I can
Isn't It Midnight
Wrong
When I see you again

Now THIS is a fantastic Mac album. Lindsey's Tango songs are really solo songs anyway.

Sorry but no album with the two Nicks duds still on it can qualify as fantastic. Stevie had been a strong link on the first four albums with Fleetwood Mac .What a precipitous slide.

Of course of course. The object was not to change what existed but switch out Lindsey solo Mac songs for solo songs.
