imagine being stevie nicks and coming into the studio one day to realize buckley has put an obnoxious pop-rocker after every one of your deeply personal ballads lmao



that being said, I kinda love how the sequencing props her songs up as the emotional core

Fantastic album, probably my favorite by them, although the Mac has many great albums. The reviewer claiming that there are no "great" songs on *Tusk* or that there are no songs as great as those on *Rumours* is just... wrong. Just different ways of greatness.

I need to do a playlist of just the Buck tracks and see how it stands up against his solo records. It’d be a great album, not a 5 though. The blend is all here.

Buck's Tusk rated:



1. The Ledge [4] (as equally cool and annoying as his 'Holiday Road' single, that sort of thing, good opener)

2. Save Me a Place [4.5] (love the feel of this track)

3. What Makes You Think [5] (amazing stuff, could imagine Isaac Brock singing this/Modest Mouse covering this :S )

4. That's All For Everyone [4.5] (such a different atmosphere for a Mac track, great stuff)



5. Not That Funny [3.5] (they like playing this one live right? I dunno, better live maybe)

6. That's Enough for Me [3] (weakest one, just a short fuck about really but still decent)

7. I Know I'm Not Wrong [4] (again, this song has a great feel)

8. Walk a Thin Line [4] (dreamy feel, unhurried is the word, another winner)

9. Tusk [5] (legendary song, just don't enjoy it quite as much as 'What Makes...' but it's close)



That as a solo Buckingham I'd rate 4.5 outta 5.



On the full album 'Beautiful Child' and 'Storms' would also receive 5 ratings, 'Sisters of the Moon' and 'Sara' 4.5s. It's quite simply an incredible double album, better than 'Rumours' by quite a margin.



Christine McVie's songs sometimes let the side down a bit is the biggest weakness, plus a couple of Buck's are slightly throwaway as I highlighted above.

He doesn't quite have the power of Brock but they can both slip into that 'unhinged' sort of delivery really well.

Yeah, this should get more ratings and comments, kinda surprisingly really given how much greatness is on deck here.
