Fleetwood Mac

[u2er]

Anyone pick up their Very Best Of? It's great Opinions?

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Not yet, but I have a few of their other studio albums which in my opinion is sometimes better than a GH compilation. I heard there's 9 songs off of Rumours, is that true?


FM rules, I love them.

so yep, nine songs. the only songs not on there are i don't want to know and oh daddy. i don't see how this is a "very best of" of the band. two discs and they can still only go back as far as 1975? and what the hell was up with the inclusion of some of their solo stuff? rolling stone gave it four stars:

Fleetwood Mac are a great band who have never had a great compilation. The pinnacle of their achievements is the three albums they released between 1975 and 1979: Fleetwood Mac and Rumours, two immaculate pop records about sexual infidelity and cocaine, and Tusk, a weird, sprawling masterpiece. Those albums are well-served here; The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac showcases the results of having three strong songwriters and a willingness to spend months in the studio sweating the smallest details -- but including nine of Rumours' eleven tracks was probably overkill. Their music after that became more syrupy, although the sugar sometimes coated a wonderfully poisonous pill such as Christine McVie's "Little Lies." Unfortunately, this two-disc collection completely discards the first eight years of Fleetwood Mac's career, when they were an excellent British blues band, in favor of superfluous oddities such as an acoustic version of Lindsay Buckingham's 1984 solo single "Go Insane."

[RavenStar]

I was named after the song Rhiannon. MY name was shortened to Rhianne though. So it doesnt rhyme with my last name.

 

[meegannie]

I live in Silver Spring.

 

[Basstrap]

anyone hear the pumpkins cover of Landslide?
it's one of those rare cases like Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah where the cover beats the original..in my opinion

 

[Lemon Meringue]

Wow. looks like a good compilation. I might have to get it. The only Fleetwood Mac I have is on vinyl.

 

[Giant Lemon]

Very cool! I have a single disc greastest hits collection, but I'll definitely consider buying the new one.
