Even in the recording studio they can still write songs that are fresh and up-lifting, Still years left in them yet.
Only The Kinks are equal to the LIVE! performance you will see on the Fleetwood Mac - Say You Will World Tour.

Danny Kirwan's song "Dragonfly" sounds not unlike the music that FM did with Buckingham/Nicks in the mid 70s. That song has that Byrds/Jefferson Airplane folk rock sound, which is something "Rumours" era FM expanded upon.
The compilation was great. Are any of the individual albums or records of the mid period with Bob Welch worth checking out?

Utterly perfect (well, maybe not "Oh Daddy"...)

I've been listening to "Mirage" lately and am reminded of how a great band -- Christine's harmonies, the McVie/Fleetwood rhythm section, say, working in tandem -- can give the frothiest of confections unexpected and even subversive undertones ("Book of Love," "Can't Go Back," "Eyes of the World").

shivers please don't make me.
having just listened to Fleetwood Mac, i am again amazed at how alike "Sugar Daddy" and "Say You Love Me" sound.

anyway, i hear the same chords, bass riffs and vocal inflections all over her songs. even the songs of hers i dislike less (eg. "over and over") suffer from this.

Sorry, dunno what I was thinking when I wrote that. Obviously wasn't.

The freak-out sounds very proto-postpunk to my ears! At least until the more bluesy part toward the end of it. I can imagine JD or The Sound making something similar...
You're right. I'm listening to it for the first time and it sounds a lot like Joy Division, particularly the tone on the bass line. I can see the OK Computer comparison too with this track.

but here's what jumps to mind wrt slick 70s production & mysticism: Joni Mitchell (Don Juan's & Hissing of Summer Lawns), Dennis Wilson, early Eagles, any solo Byrds from that period (the first David Crosby, solo McGuinn, Dillard & Clark). maybe even Steely Dan?

The male/female dynamic thing sounds like a good lead as well. Thanks for the suggestions so far, keep them rolling in.

If you don't have the Buckingham Nicks LP, grab that for sure. And as for remotely similar stuff, I've been really feeling the first America LP, though it actually sounds more like Neil Young or CSN&Y.

First heard it en route to Vegas this summer. Have yet to go beyond that and the Dance though.
