Rumours of fleetwood mac tour dates 2016

Lindsay Buckingham stakes out the albumвЂ™s emotional territory on the albumвЂ™s opener. Buckingham pulls out a number of interesting guitar textures here, which only adds to the tuneвЂ™s undeniable charm. But this is ultimately a perfect example of why Rumours is so strong, as disparate elements mould into a coherent whole.

Why Fleetwood Mac's Tusk is better than RumoursДЄ groovy little electric piano riff might at first seem out of kilter with McVieвЂ™s slightly whimsical pop melody.

A delicate and haunting number beautifully delivered by Nicks. The number moves along on an agreeably soothing bass line from John McVie and a simple Mick Fleetwood drum pattern as Nicks warns Buckingham against the dangers of thinking the grass will be greener without her. DreamsДЄ Stevie Nicks composition that the other band members werenвЂ™t keen on until Buckingham managed to take the songвЂ™s basic chord structure and make three sections that all sounded different.

The tuneвЂ™s undeniable loveliness may hide a more bitter undercurrent, given that Christine is singing вЂњI love you, I love you, I love you like never beforeвЂќ to someone who isnвЂ™t the bass-playing husband sheвЂ™s just recently divorced. SongbirdДЄ delicate McVie number вЂ“ deliberately recorded to give it a вЂњconcert hall ambienceвЂќ вЂ“ manages to avoid sinking into sentimentality, primarily because of McVieвЂ™s clarity of voice and her understated delivery. This is what you might call a ditty, but thatвЂ™s in no way supposed to be disparaging. You canвЂ™t help but feel that BuckinghamвЂ™s channelling the spirit of an earlier age during these two minutes and 14 seconds of loveliness. Never Going Back AgainДЄ lovely acoustic piece from Buckingham that showcases the skills of a player whose own technique has often been underrated in the rush to applaud him as a songwriter. McVieвЂ™s quirky keyboard fills only add to the songвЂ™s charm.

Written by Christine McVie, Oh Daddy has a quintessential Englishness about it that the singer sneakily slips into what is an overwhelmingly American record.
