Trouble in Fleetwood Mac.......

If ever there were a way to illustrate that musical taste varies, this thread is it.  

I am probably (much) younger than most people on this forum, and never could get up much interest in Fleetwood Mac despite trying.  Then I got my hands on the Lindsey Buckingham Live at Bass Hall album and was dumbfounded.  He re-worked some of the older Fleetwood Mac numbers and also contributed some of his solo work.  The playing is just incredible.  There is also a "Songs From the Small Machine" album that is spectacular in every regard.  

I saw the "Buckingham/McVie" tour live last year and was expecting a real snoozer of old Fleetwood stuff, but what I got was a Lindsey Buckingham show in all its glory.  At 69 years old he is unmatched IMO.  I understand Christine McVie prompted the tour and wrote some of the new songs, for which I give her credit, but beyond that she contributed nothing to the show besides shaking some maracas and little keyboard playing that couldn't be heard anyway.  

Doubtful I'd walk across the street to a Fleetwood Mac show with out Buckingham.

Carry on!

If it weren’t for him and Nicks,  Fleetwood Mac would never have become, well, the version of the band that made them all rich and famous.  Love ‘em or loathe ‘em for that reason, but without them the fame and fortune that afforded them all careers is undeniable. 

First off, he could play like a summuvagun.  Secondly his studio productions are brilliant. 

A few years ago I tossed Rumors onto my CD player just for the hell of it.  I’d forgotten how damn good the production values were. That alone doesn’t mean anything without good material, and they had some excellent tunes that didn’t get the overheavy rotation on what was then “radio”,  or even worse, the classic rock formats streaming etc.  now. 

Buckingham is an excellent guitar player! Period.

What’s a “summuvagun”?
