Favourite song from 'Rumours'?

You Make Loving Fun.

Any combo of Lindsey and Christine seems to be magic in the context of FM, even if it's just her voice and his guitar.
 
Songbird was played at my wedding. Also like The Chain. And Never Going Back Again. And Gold Dust Woman.
 
OK, listen real hard to Second Hand News. If you listen carefully you will notice he alternates between saying "I'm just second hand news", and "I'm just sitting here nude". Weird huh?
 
I've covered "Never Going Back Again" and "Gold Dust Woman" for recording fests, but always was a fan of "the Chain".

That said, I've always been an absolute fan of the underrated fretwork on "You Make Loving Fun", which is perfection.
 
The licks, two octaves apart, at 2:40 are some of my favorite notes in the history of guitar.



Lindsey, despite all the accolades he's received over the years is still underrated in my mind. He's that much better than his praise.

That's what I was getting at in my post, the seamless first lead break is to be noted as well, how he goes from "understated" @1:14 to "little monster" in a blink and still stays within the context of the song. Just a little shift.
 
Go Your Own Way.

Great solo tone, great harmonies, and a fantastic drum part that came about because Lindsey wanted the drums like "Street Fighting Man" and Fleetwood had a hard time translating that... it totally became it's own unique thing.
 
I will just hang with you guys with a nice IPA. I love that experience, but that particular substance is not for me.

You can have my share of the alcohol and I'll take your share of the weed. I haven't had a sip of alcohol in over 10 years.
 
The Chain.

I have an old ADC Accutrac, Pioneer SX-1080 and a pair of older Pioneer speakers, don't recall the model. My LP is the original I had in high school, and it's not in the best shape these days. :embarrassed:

Sipping an IPA just works better for me. With oncoming legality in surrounding areas, have been open, but just not how my head is wired. Different brain chemistries in that respect, I guess.
