Sheer brilliance! The live versions pack an even better punch. As stated by an earlier post, these songs require age and life experience to appreciate. As a 7-year-old kid in 1977, I was obsessed with Rumours - I wore out the record. However, "Tusk" left the 9-year-old me scratching my head. I had no schema, no frame of reference to grow into it.

Unpopular Opinion: The 53-year-old me is convinced that "Tusk" is a better album than "Rumours" - probably the best album in the Fleetwood Mac catalog.

I Know I'm Not Wrong is a masterpiece. On stage - it's a beautiful monster.
What Makes You Think You're The One has always been my favorite Lindsey Tusk song.

And I'm the same. Rumours defined who I became in life. I loved Tusk, but it sure wasn't the radio friendly gold that Rumours was. But it's their greatest album.

Oddly, I listen to Mirage more than anything these days. It's the original BuckVie...pop happiness.
