Pretty much yeahSo is Fleetwood Mac still the favourite for February’s Essentials?
Thank god, their records are in sorry need of reissues. It feels like it has been at least 6 months.So is Fleetwood Mac still the favourite for February’s Essentials?
I‘be never got the whole Fleetwood Mac thing. Tusk aside they’re a bit shit, right? Basically what people spun in the 70’s and 80’s at wine and vol au vent parties before they busted out the fishbowl and launched the car keys in.Thank god, their records are in sorry need of reissues.

I reckon this is a hot take around these parts. Lots of fans here.I‘be never got the whole Fleetwood Mac thing. Tusk aside they’re a bit shit, right? Basically what people spun in the 70’s and 80’s at wine and vol au vent parties before they busted out the fishbowl and launched the car keys in.
I am not sure it is too much of one. For me they are 2nd only to the Eagles on my hatred scale. Both are pretty polarizing.I reckon this is a hot take around these parts. Lots of fans here.
I don't love them either, but I don't think I've ever seen them get much hate in here.I am not sure it is too much of one. For me they are 2nd only to the Eagles on my hatred scale. Both are pretty polarizing.
I’ve seen loads of glowing reviews of Pallas copies of Rumours and just assumed when they all flood in that it’s ’Pass the Glue Day’I don't love them either, but I don't think I've ever seen them get much hate in here.
Why is “Geography teacher music” SO accurateI’ve seen loads of glowing reviews of Pallas copies of Rumours and just assumed when they all flood in that it’s ’Pass the Glue Day’
I just find them totally, totally tedious. Ala Clapton and the already mentioned Eagles. Proper Geography Teacher music
(Apart from Tusk which is so good I’m assuming they made it by accident)
and part of what made that album interesting was mostly because Buckingham was heavily inspired by post punk, other than that all the songs could have fit on an album like tango in the night no problem(Apart from Tusk which is so good I’m assuming they made it by accident)
GotchaI don't love them either, but I don't think I've ever seen them get much hate in here.
The idea of Buckingham bringing in a copy of PiL 2nd Edition or Gang of Four Entertainment to the studio to share with rest of Cocaine Mac breaks my brain.and part of what made that album interesting was mostly because Buckingham was heavily inspired by post punk, other than that all the songs could have fit on an album like tango in the night no problem

“Producer Ken Caillat commented on Buckingham's obsessive nature in the studio: "He was a maniac. The first day, I set the studio up as usual. Then he said, 'Turn every knob 180 degrees from where it is now and see what happens.' He'd tape microphones to the studio floor and get into a sort of push-up position to sing. Early on, he came in and he'd freaked out in the shower and cut off all his hair with nail scissors. He was stressed."”The idea of Buckingham bringing in a copy of PiL 2nd Edition or Gang of Four Entertainment to the studio to share with rest of Cocaine Mac breaks my brain.
