Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie


 

It's been ages since I thought about Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, or anybody else associated with Fleetwood Mac. The only reason they've come to mind today is because of a lede on Drudge Report where it was reported that Buckingham had compared Nicks and his other former band members to the Republicans and Donald Trump. That was just the sort of click bait that would get my attention.

It was in the linked to article from RollingStone that I learned that Buckingham had released an album with Christine McVie in 2017. Of course, I opened Spotify to search for the recording.

The album contains 10 songs, but from listening to it one would think you were listening to 10 slightly different versions of the same song. Fleetwood Mac's music could be repetitive but this album takes repetition to stellar levels. It isn't that the songs are , horrible it's just that there is nothing new with this music. Boring is worse than horrible.
