50 great things about Fleetwood Mac's "Tusk"

I used to think rumours was better, but i was wrong. side 4 of tusk is unstoppable brilliance of the highest order.

HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN 4 INNER LP SLEEVES HMMMM?

Somewhere in my busy day today I heard at random "Never Make Me Cry" in my head, more and more repeatedly and incessantly as the day/night wore on. It seemed to be the only thing that summed up my feelings about the day. When I was finally able to play that of my own free will at home...ah god, the release.

Anyway, I love this album and this thread is nice to read.

76 (or whatever). How the humming at the end of "What Makes You Think You're The One" sounds like the melody of Eric Carmen's "Hungry Eyes"

ah, okay.

Astral Weeks is an incredible album, but I'm not sure what the heck heck it has to do with Tusk? anyway, cute to see upthread that Ragget discovered Fleetwood Mac's Tusk, an album readily available in dollar bins across the nation for 20 odd years, in calendar year 2004. What kept you away Ned? Those scintillating Gene Loves Jezebel and Alien Sex Fiend deluxe CD editions?

God, this guy was such a douche.

Jaymc, I think reviving a thread just to pick on somebody (who still posts) is a pretty douchey move itself.

You mean-spirited little twerp.

Also, I like Ned, but the Gene Loves Jezebel zing was LOLs.

my record store had three copies of tusk in the $0.50 bin this week.

Very common record. I personally have two copies. One for emergencies.

I haven't seen Stormy post in months. Anyway, I was talking about Tusk on the Britney Spears thread, so I opened this thread up to read about the album in more detail and was disappointed to find another one of Stormy's weird chip-on-his-shoulder routines.

haha Stormy had a go at me on some random thread for being a macroeconomics auto-didact or some such shit, this was last week I think

I was disappointed to open up this thread and read one of your weird chip-on-your-shoulder routines as well, so it's a good thing you kept that going.

<I>I haven't seen Stormy post in months. </I>
So he must have stopped reading ILX entire, I'm sure.

xp

Seriously, Alfred, what is wrong with Honey Hi? It is a great great track. If there is a dud, for my money, it is Storms

RIP. Heaven needed a guy who was smug about living on the South Side and wasn't afraid to get down with some sweet classic rock.

Honey Hi is one of my faves. The dud is Sister of the Moon.

Man, Jaymc, you're just a really bitter prick aren't you?

xp Sorry, Ian.

I don't mind "Honey Hi" anymore.

BUT LET'S TALK ABOUT "NEVER FORGET." OMIGOD.

Haha, I'm not bitter! I think you're just friends with all of my ILX enemies. :/

the build at the beginning is pretty epic

it is a great driving song, maybe one of the best

"Enemies" is strong: just people that seriously rub me the wrong way.

If I had a nickel for everyone on ILX who rubbed me the wrong way...

I'm with Ian on Sisters of the Moon, and I'm a huge Stevie apologist. I really don't get all the hate for Storms.

I'm not fond of it either, although the fadeout is cool.

Amazingly there are no duds on this album. Just things you get into now and things you get into later.

Storms is AMAZING but you really have to listen to it really loud to get all the crazy interplay with the bass and lyndsey's 15 guitar tracks. seriously its some next level shit.

The Ledge. It's my all time favorite Mac song.
