Fleetwood Mac

The answer to the trivia question about DP and Abba is Frida sings on Beyond The Notes by Jon Lord of DP. She also sings on the live DVD. Both are excellent if you like classical and jazz.

I forgot I had started this thread... lots of good opinions and recommendations. Good to see at least a few people hold them in as high a regard as I do. I've ordered copies of both Bare Trees and Mirage, and will continue to diverge from the triumverate of the late 70's until it's either too bluesy for me (in the direction of Bare Trees) or overly poppy and lacking emotion (in the direction of Mirage). I might not get far in either direction.

I agree with some of the posts above - ABBA was the biggest and the best. They just were never marketed to Americans.

I was living in the Bay Area in the 1960s and 70s. I enjoyed live music at the Carousel Ballroom/Fillmore West, Winterland, and the Avalon Ballroom in San Francisco, the Boat House in Sausalito, the Bodega in San Jose and many other places where good music was playing and I never heard of ABBA.
