I seem to recall its the cover of the Lindsey Buckingham One of those has an assist from George Harrison. Has great version of "Rattlesnake Shake", "Not Fade Away", and "Walk A Thin Line" Kind of precursor to Paul Simon's journey intoĪfrican music. "The Visitor" - 1981 solo album by Mick Fleetwood. benefited greatly from the help providedīy Mick Fleetwood and John McVie - who gave the song a great foundation. I'm not even sure either has ever seen a compact disc release. The two albums together on one CD would make for an amazing listen. The "Fundamental Roll" album from 1977 and the "Not Shy" album from 1978. There are two albums, primarily produced by Buckingham, that had plenty more gems. "Magnet and Steel" was a huge top 40 hit that I believe featured both junior members of Fleetwood Mac. "Magnet and Steel" - Both Buckingham and Nicks did some guest work on two albums by Walter Egan. If you want to hunt down some forgotten gems that are on the peripherary try these: If you take all the highlighted songs above you can burn yourself a nice CD sampler. Love Shines - new cut from The Chain box set is simply astounding
Tango in the Night - one of the Mac's hardest rocking songsįreedom - Nicks highlight from the post-Buckingham Behind the Mask Love in Store - the other hit from Mirage Rhiannon Live 1976 - from the Midnight Special, you will say WOW and you know what to expect- think about the people then who never heard of Nicks or Welsh Witches until this song. Heroes Are Hard To Find - hard to understand how this went nowhere but Over My Head went Top 25 a few months later Remember Me - Another near-hit from McVie from the underwhelming Penguin album Sometimes - from Kirwin, smoother production and this is a huge hitįuture Games - a huge FM album rock hit and the first big hit from Bob Welch for the band Shake Your Moneymaker - good example of Jeremy Spencer's contribution Man of the World - one of the final Green songs, sounds like it could be from any later era Mac effort Oh Well - the other Mac huge UK hit from this era
The Green Manalishi - Green's greatest psychadelic romp If you want to spend some time on YouTube, you need to look for (all from albums not mentioned above):Īlbatross (the #2 UK hit instrumental from 1968) Listen for the original Sentimental Lady, McVie's Spare Me. (I'm partial to McVie's Honey Hi - a slight number that always melts me)īARE TREES (1972) - the one McVie/Welch/Kirwin album, a precursor to all the smooth pop that came later. From Tusk, What Makes You Think You're the One, The Ledge are Buckingham highlights. I'm not recommending Rumours or 1975 Fleetwood Mac because, well, you know almost all of those songs already (of the 21 represented, I count 13 radio play regulars) and will eventually own those albums, so do yourself a favor and reach for Tusk instead. TUSK - the Buckingham era Mac at its most strange and unique. MYSTERY TO ME - the best Welch/McVie era Mac album - listen to Hypnotised THEN PLAY ON - you get a great taste of Peter Green and Danny Kirwin. 1) The Chain box is to be had cheap used, has nice notes and artwork, and will get you a good overview.Ģ) If you want a sampling from the distinct eras:
