I don't hate Fleetwood Mac, just Stevie Nicks.
― PEOPLE LIVING IN COMPETITION (Sandy), Tuesday, 29 July 2014 22:15 (nine years ago) link
I like Stevie Nicks, and I sometimes enjoy talking with other people who like Stevie Nicks, but those weird fans who LIVE FOR Stevie Nicks and draw/paint terrible fan art and dress witchy and ...you know who I'm talking about here. They probably got really into Twilight too.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 29 July 2014 22:18 (nine years ago) link
Stevie Nicks seemed like the biggest star in the world when I was a kid and now it's like "oh, she had a couple solo hits while FM were in a lull"

Obsessive Stevie Nicks fans >>>>>>> the guy described by D Berman

I can understand preferring the Peter Green or Bob Welsh FM, but I don't understand liking the Buckingham-Nicks era and disliking Stevie Nicks.

I have 14 so far, with my #1 and #8 knocked out. In looking over my list, I think I should add for the fellow southern ex-pats that I share your Sweet Home Alabama sentiments for the Marshall Tuckers of the world, and even for most of the Allman's as well.
But not for .38 Special.
― campreverb, Tuesday, 29 July 2014 22:28 (nine years ago) link
I mean, before cocaine ruined her nose and dampened her songwriting Nicks was a spectacular rock singer and indispensable rock person. It's impossible to imagine going to watch FM in 1980 just for Buckingham and McVie's tunes.

person = singer same thing
i like "rock person"!

and ridiculously great songwriter, which is sometimes overlooked, probably not by you soto, but by the awful, uncaring world at large.

I would have! I like Stevie Nicks, and I love spellbinding mid-tempo pop plod-athons as much as anyone, but Buckingham's & McVie's songs are much more exciting to me.
― Lewis - J'Agour (crüt), Tuesday, 29 July 2014 22:36 (nine years ago) link
four fm's and two stevie's in my top 100, and it would have been easy to add more of each.

i legit don't trust people who like mac "except nicks" they are shifty people who shouldn't be let outside the house

Sandy, you hate her voice on "Dreams," "Gold Dust Woman," "Sara," and "Rhiannon"?
I've had 16 place so far. Surprised, really.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 29 July 2014 22:39 (nine years ago) link
12 for me.

Also, upon consulting my ballot, I see I voted for "American Woman" before joining in to trash it in the most-hated results. I must have been drunk or very out of it the night I cast my vote.

i've had 19 place so far, including my #1 and #6. starting to worry about my #2, though, as nothing else by the same artist (who i also have at #9 and #86) has shown up yet.

3/40! starting to think I threw away a lot of votes on stuff that never stood a chance. oh well

5 so far for me, my preference for 80s rock is my undoing

Actually, I like scarves and boots and flowy skirts just fine, I shopped at Granny Takes a Trip in 1975,too.I like her voice on Insider. I'll give her that. Otherwise, really, no. Granted, her voice is perfect for the songs she writes, but I don't like her songs!

Eh, it's terrible but undeniably Classic Rock. Think I voted for it plus "no sugar tonight" and maybe "no time" too. (both of which are better, tbf)

John Stewart - GoldKenny Loggins - Whenever I Call You "Friend"Bob Welsh - Sentimental Lady

Insider is sooo great, one of my favorite Petty songs. I almost wrote it in here but I almost wrote in about 30 Petty songs.

mentioned this on the nomination and/or voting thread but eminence front is one of the only tracks i can think of that sits comfortably in both the CR and balearic canons
love eminence front so so much. i think you could make a case for other tracks in this poll like "fly like an eagle" (particularly cosmic if you cut out after the intro) and a few fleetwood mac tunes, but i say this more because i see them pop up on lists etc not nec b/c i agree
