Machine sees how I just told an entire paragraph aloud instead of typing, about, save me from confessing because it will take so long to contextualize, the experience of seeing Fleetwood Mac<\/a> come to the public eye again. And how I now do not recognize the Buckingham Nicks version of the band as greats the way I did as a child. (even though this<\/a>\u00a0is the cutest album in the sweet world of acoustic countryfolk LovePop. The world that,\u00a0other than mysteriously serving as a genre incubator for the Byrds, spawned little flat, bright pink packets of James Taylor and the Eagles and Linda Ronstadt, and\u00a0became\u00a070\u2019s\u00a0business-driven pop rock radio that was\u00a0musically speaking, was two gum-popping inches deep, with unfortunate eventualities including Leo Sayer and Al Stewart.\u00a0But the listening agony is like a little bunny and click we came back for more. \u00a0Lindsey Buckingham put Fleetwood Mac on the dial. \u00a0It didn\u2019t make any kind of listening sense, when other music not getting much radio play had so much to offer. John Prine, Emmy Lou, Nick Drake, Leonard Cohen, to begin a list.<\/p>\n

I looked a\u00a0lot<\/em>\u00a0at that glass orb they used on two album covers, and for all I know it\u2019s in one of the many crowded candids on the multi-sleeved Tusk cover, which was the most exquisitely entertaining find-things-in-the-sand activity, it took the attention clean away from Buckingham\u2019s aerobics-class idea of music. They gave too much creative control to the shallowest artist in the band, even if he could shred. \u00a0It ain’t all about the shred. And Stevie Nicks was great for persona, and a sweet songwriter, with a soul for music and an amazing capacity for celebrity. Let me take that as a lesson, grasshopper, and make sure that the voices of my work speak for my investigations.<\/p>\n
