- what to say that hasn't been said?
well, for starters--although this too has probably been said--_rumours_ is one of a relatively small number of true masterpieces in the genre of soft rock. it's simply the greatest softrock album of all time and one of the most successful albums of any genre, any decade. all the standard hits are here, "don't stop," "go your own way," "the chain," and several others that aren't quite that popular. my favorite by leagues and leagues, however, is the tucked away acoustic number, "never going back again," an absolutely lovely track. all the same, i think this album cowers and disappears when placed up against it's infinitely more ambitious sister album, _tusk_.
Rating: - The greatest album ever?
This wonderful album was first released in 1977, and was re-released on CD in 1990. It contains many of the Fleetwood Mac's finest works up to 1977, and indeed many of their finest works, period. I had this album on vinyl(!) back when I was young, and often missed its fantastic sounds. Well, now it's back and I am very glad to have it.
Admittedly, this CD doesn't include any "extras" beyond what was on the original album, but the quality is excellent. As a bonus, the liner notes include the words to all of the songs. There is not one song on this album that is not one of my favorites, but my altogether favorite is Songbird, in which Christine McVie sings one of the most beautiful love songs that I have ever heard.
So, let me just sum up by saying that this is a great album, one of the best, one that I am very glad to have. I highly recommend it!
Rating: - Rumours is Timeless
I love fleetwood mac, and I have to say thah this cd is one of the cds by which all of the other music I hear is judged. Unfortunately, no one writes songs like these any more, at least, they don't sing them with the same conviction that fleetwood mac does. Every song on this album is absolutely amazing and truly timeless. If you have never heard this album, I encourage you to listen to it. It is a beautiful collection, and you will not be disappointed.
Rating: - "Rumours DVD-A" heard on a DVD-A player is OUTSTANDING!!!
For Stevie Nicks fans, this Rumours DVD-Audio disc is mandatory!!
I recently purchased a Toshiba DVD-A player, a JVC Receiver designed for DVD-A, Monster audio cables designed for SACD/DVD-Audio, and I added one Infinity Beta Center speaker (designed for SACD/DVD-A) to my old stereo speakers. (I still need Beta Surround speakers).
A set-up similar to that results in the best reproduction of the the Fleetwood Mac "Rumours DVD-A" & others such as Emerson, Lake & Palmer's DVD-A.
The Rumours DVD-A sounds much better than the Rumours CD...
I played them both and obvserved that the sound is clearer, has better tones, and is much more impressive, (and worth the DVD-A electonic equipment costs). On the song - The Chain - McVie's solo bass notes have outstanding tone on the DVD-A as compared to the CD!!! Just like he is in my living room. Overall, the sound on the DVD-A is outstanding. Good work Fleetwood Mac & Warner Brothers!!!
When playing the DVD-A in Pro Logic, Enhanced Stereo, or in PCM, it also sounds very good. I haven't tried DTS yet.
Stevie's "Gold Dust Woman" is the best I have ever heard. And, Stevie's delicate voice comes through brilliantly on her famous "Silver Springs" as well as on the "Gold Dust Woman" along with the powerful band music in the background.
You also get many pictures with each song you can click on. You can play another section where there is no singing - only the instrumentals with Stevie, Lindsey, Mick & John explaining how they wrote or recorded each song.
Rating: - Rock On Forever - Fleetwood Mac!!
I still remember this album back in 1976 - hearing it in Cleveland, Ohio. You couldn't go ANYWHERE in Cleveland, and not hear "Dreams", by Fleetwood Mac, from their fantastic album of ultra personal songs, Rumours. All the record stores in Randall Park Mall in 1976 were playing nothing but songs from that album. "Thunder only happens when it's raining." I'll remember those lyrics, forever.......
