![Whitsitt Chapel [Explicit]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41FR--5zGDL.__AC_SR166,182___.jpg)
I've been a fan of Fleetwood Mac & co for a long time. I wasn't sure what to expect from this album, which is essentially an FM album minus Stevie Nicks, but to my surprise I do enjoy it. Certainly, there are some weak points, but overall this is an impressive collection of songs from incredibly talented musicians.
Both McVie and Buckingham contribute some solid music, and (mostly) solid lyrics. As far as McVie goes, I feel that Red Sun is her strongest track on this album, followed by Carnival Begin. Too Far Gone is nice, if a little generic. Feel About You and Game of Pretend are my least favorite, respectively. Game of Pretend starts out with potential, but the chorus is overly saccharine for me. Feel About You has a fun feel to it, but also a little bubblegummy. Buckingham contributes his trademark guitar, layered chorus vocals (yet not so overly produced as some of his previous work) and an energy that can't be denied. My personal favorite track on this album is Lay Down for Free, followed by Love Is Here To Stay. I like In My World and On With The Show, but they do get a bit repetitive after a while. I was a little disappointed to see Sleeping Around The Corner on here, as it was released as a bonus track to one of Lindsey's earlier solo albums, and would've preferred entirely new music.
I'm giving this album five stars as it is a solid body of work, from artists that are late 60's and early 70's in age; very impressive to have such a modern, reinvented feel to these tracks, and I think it sits quite comfortably in the latter 2010's. Certainly, aspects of it are reminiscent of their work from a few decades ago, but without being overtly so. I'm pleased that Buckingham and McVie decided to make an album, even without Stevie Nicks (who seems more concerned about making money than her art these days - they're all worth millions so how much more money do you really need?), and if you get a chance, check out the short documentary of the making of the album. It's nice to see the members of FM relaxed and enjoying what they do, without the intense drama that usually ensues when Nicks and Buckingham are in close proximity to each other. Do yourself a favor and give this album a listen!

The Best New Fleetwood Mac Album - Feel Like I'm 15 Years Old Again
I'm giving this 5 stars. It has all the brilliance of the very best Fleetwood Mac album. It could have, should have been a Fleetwood Mac album. If you can make one without Christine or Lindsey, why can't you make one without Stevie?Stevie's my girl. She's the superglue of the live shows. Having just seen Buckingham-McVie in concert, I can testify that the quintessential Fleetwood Mac vocal harmonics do not exist without her. That being said, This Album solved all those issues and you can be assured you will not miss Stevie on this album.There's none of that "I dumped you but I miss you dynamic", which is to say there's no rotten baggage in the way between Lindsey and Christine. So what you get is feel good, catchy singalongs that pop with mostly the stellar rhythm section of Mick Fleetwood and John McVie. There are no downers here.I purchased the LP format because I had read one review which said they were unhappy with the compression quality of the CD. As I wanted every morsel of this masterpiece, I sprung for the LP. I eagerly tore open the box upon arrival, like I was a kid again, coming home with Rumours and plunking it on the turntable and cranking it all the way up.Basically, this album Blew My Mind. Oh, and you get a free Auto Rip download so you can play it digitally wherever, whenever. So it's a two-for in a way. IF you are a Mac fan, this Is A Must Have. If you are a 70s fan of the Mac, I strongly suggest buying the LP so you can feel like you stepped out of the DeLorean back to say, 1975 when you first heard Lindsey.Go see Buckingham McVie in concert too. At the beginning it was just the two of them, and I burst into tears hearing his acoustic guitar. He is my favorite guitar player of all time. He played his heart and soul out and left it on the stage. I strongly recommend this album.
