I caught a serious Rick Vito bug about a year ago. Though I had several of his early solo albums, my interest sort of waned at some point. Perhaps it was Mick's Blues Again album that put Rick back on my radar. Since then I've sought out all of his subsequent solo albums, including his Lucky in Love/Best of collection. Once I get Rattlesnake Shake my collection will be complete.

I think his most recent album, Mojo on My Side is one of his best. The US version has entirely different artwork than the international issue.

In hindsight, I think Fleetwood Mac would have been better off if they only hired Rick.
I have nothing against Billy, but three singer/songwriters seems to be the right equation for the band. It would have given Rick more room to establish himself.
