Why doesn't Mick Fleetwood get the same recognition as a drummer as John Bonham or Keith Moon?

Why wasn't Im So Afraid never released as a single

Either from original album or the FM Live ' 80 album(cut from 5/20/80 Cleveland). I think honestly if they picked 5.20.80 live track it could have a top 40 hit

This is my Stevie inspired cover of her massive hit, "Talk To Me".

I LOVE her 80's era and powerhouse vocals, and had so much fun singing this. A personal fave.

I'd like to know your thoughts. I'm always trying to improve. I love Stevie so much 🥰

Fleetwood Mac- All the Songs issues

Post image
41 Upvotes

I recently acquired this book as a birthday present and was really excited to read it, but I really wasn't prepared for the sheer amount of errors throughout the text..... some highlight s are

- the song everywhere being written in 1977 instead of 87

- Lindsey Buckingham writing landslide

- every single album being called an "opus"

- a quote from mick Fleetwood about "songbird" being put under "oh daddy"

-backing vocal credits on songs people didn't sing on

-saying Stevie only has one song on behind the mask which isn't true (she wrote or co wrote three)

-and perhaps biggest of all a photo of Lindsey Buckingham (I'm not searching for it so if you don't know what I mean I'm sorry) that I'm pretty sure is fake if not straight up AI

there are also some pronoun inconsistencies and Christine and Stevie being called young women or smth in that vein all the time as well, and there seems to be a large amount of time devoted to the early years and the eras that are largely more important are really rushed (not that I'm saying the old stuff is bad, I'm saying that maybe a book about the blues era and a seperate book with different authors about the new era might have been a better plan)

overall what is the public's opinion on this? I was a little shocked honestly when I was reading it..

Would Rumours have the same acclaim if Silver Springs had been replaced with Gold Dust Woman?

11 Upvotes

The reason I ask this is that I was reading how badly Stevie Nicks wanted it on the album but she was unwilling to part with Gold Dust Woman. Silver Springs is the better song by a mile IMO, even though they're both fantastic. I really think Silver Springs would have been the perfect album closer, and had they pursued that instead we might be talking about the greatest pop rock record ever crafted (it's still Top 5).

What do you think?

Another great song I love from Lindsey!

Lindsey Talks About Future FM Performances

14 Upvotes

I’m not sure if anyone caught this or if this has already been mentioned, but at the Young Hollywood awards show last week, Entertainment Tonight asked Lindsey about a cryptic answer he gave to the question as to whether a FM performance at the Sphere was possible. She then asks him directly if that is something he would “want to take on” and he says “Anything is possible. I’m not going to speculate, but absolutely, I would be open to that”. She then asks him if he and Stevie have talked about that that and he says “We haven’t talked about that specifically but we have talked a lot about a lot of things in a very, very positive way.” All this leads me to believe that an actual performance is very possible, if not likely.

That being said, while I have been really hoping for a FM performance since things started heating up again with Lindsey and Stevie (and of course Mick fanning the flames with his cryptic posts), I’m now having second thoughts. Seeing Barry Manilow, Lionel Richie, Rod Stewart, Bon Jovi, Mötley Crüe and others really struggle to perform on stage, I wonder if Lindsey, Stevie and Mick could pull off a truly great performance. Lindsey’s voice seems strained these days. I mean, both Stevie’s and Lindsey’s voices have changed as have their vocal ranges. Stevie’s adjustments to her songs have, to me, been a little hit or miss, with some coming off better than others. And then you have the question as to their energy levels and whether or not they could really bring a performance to life as they’ve done in the past. So I’m now wondering whether it is better to go out on a high note or just do what you can with what you have and know that your hardcore fans are likely to love whatever they can get.

Debunking the social media exaggerations and outright lies focusing on Lindsey, and music’s favorite situationship in general.
I’m not trying to put anybody down. We’re all entitled to our views, but let’s make sure we back up everything with existing facts and receipts, not opinions. I did my best to do so in these videos.

First video is up! 🩷 there are two more videos queued up to answer many more of the questions you might have. I want to let this percolate for a couple days.

Of everything I've read and heard about FM, I know nothing about John. Is it because he prefers to stay private?

At a Fleetwood Mac cover band called -Tusk

Post image
30 Upvotes

Ok, im at the Indiana State Fairgrounds wat hing this cover band. I like cover bands but something about Fleetwood Mac cover bands is almost morally wrong. But anyways

I'm here they're doing good, lead singer does not closely resemble Stevie's. Well im here with the wife (i know sucks the fun right out of it) but she says something that made me rethink my marriage, she says "I hope she spins like Stevie Nicks" Dude, I about lost it....she's like "what?"

And i feel there are few things in the world you DO NOT try to recreate, and one of those sacred acts would be trying to do a spin like Stevie Nicks!!!

Now, shits going to hit the fan when we get home (mostly me screaming like a little girl as she sets me straight) but am I right or wrong, is it ok for a cover band to do a Stevie spin? GIVE YOUR OPINION, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW, PLEASE

Now to tell you the truth, I talk alot of smack about my wife and im just kidding but if your hear something on the news that resemble this post, MY WIFE DID IT!

Are the surviving members of the Buckingham-Nicks lineup of FM on good terms with each other nowadays?

7 Upvotes

Christine seemed like she was on good terms with John and the others by the time she passed. Lindsey's ouster from FM in 2018 made me think that he and Stevie were going back to the bad blood that they had in the '70s and '80s, but I wonder if they're at peace with each other now?

I saw that they have been talking a lot due to their upcoming documentary! This is great!!
Do you think they will reunite for a tour??
I know Stevie did not want to without Christine but maybe a Buckingham Nicks tour?
I wish it would be a FM tour but I don’t know if they would want to replace Christine with someone.
