Stevie Nicks A Rock Goddess like few others. Her voice is only made more exceptional when it is in a Live performance, that I've had the pleasure three times.
"Have you any dreams you'd like to sell? Dreams of loneliness like a heartbeat drives you mad in the stillness of remembering what you had, and what you lost, and what you had and what you lost." Not only do I consider this the best Fleetwood Mac album ever, but I also think its songs also have the most profound lyrics on them Nice review!
John Mcvie's killer bass and Mick Fleetwood's drums provide the steady beat, almost like a heartbeat, and to me this is Stevie's best song, vocally and lyrically. A simple, but pure kickass banger.
Rumours is really a special album, with every track a true gem. Fleetwood Mac dropped it when I was ten and the songs from it got a lot of radio play back then and for years after. Needless to say, many of those songs are so imprinted in my memory I can hear them in my mind just by thinking about them.
I watched a documentary last week about the making of the "Rumours" album by Fleetwood Mac. I've been listening to this amazing album for several decades but I had no idea about the internal strife the band was experiencing while recording the album.
Dude lost control...and with good reason. Rumours was magical. They achieved about as close to perfection with this album as any in history. Of, course, there was much chemical boost in the studio pushing this perfection. Just a part of it's magical appeal.
