Tusk Expanded - Early Thoughts
Listening now (on shuffle) as I type, some early thoughts;
One version of IKINW has a lot of Stevie - sort of like a duo with LB. Really enjoyed it. Angel version is very sexy - 50's night club like. Boring at first but really grew on me as the song progressed. Different lyrics at end. Brown Eyes (with LB & PG) - completely different lyrics? Live Save Me A Place - awesome! So far some really cool stuff - really surprised! Look forward to hearing your thoughts and reviews. |

Listening now for you.
I'm at work so not easy - sounds like it has some sort of mild echo effect/more acoustic guitar?/different ending layered vocals Sorry can't detect any new lyrics apart from LB whispering something towards the end. By the way that new Brown Eyes is a completely different lyric. Don't think it even mentions "Brown Eyes" - refers to "yesterdays tears" If you're ever feeling lonely Don't forget to call on me Through all the years I've known you You've always been good to me Sha la la's.. Yesterdays tears Your're over the ????? |

I know I'm not Shackin'Up, I know I did a cursory listen only, but he will love the audio roadmaps of IKINW and Tusk.
There's plenty of Peter Green on Brown Eyes, which is just as big a deal as the alternate lyrics, IMO.

Im sooo impressed .... Its all to much to take in yet .... Ive been shuffling all over all day trying to take it all in .... Sooo much cool different stuff . I was expecting a bit more from stevies live songs but maybe they will grow on me i dont like how she sorta talks lyrics during sisters of the moon instead of singing .... The mirage sisters bootleg was so epic but seems her voice is strained on tusk tour version ..., either way its all so new to my ears so love it . Lindsey just shines throughout in the live stuff .... The 8 minute sara is great ... Backing vocals sounds like her solo band sorta .... Im blabbing now and not really reviewing well ... I need a couple of weeks to take it all in . But totally loving it all in general !!!!

Out on the road!!!
I started with track 11 disc two. Out on the road, and it already brought me to Tears. Wonderful. I just love love love Lindsey's early sketches where he is just trying and searching. It's creativity to the max! And then these roadmaps,man, I'm hooked. All the takes are searching for something different! Fantastic.

Disc II
18 Tusk, that first demo is a five minute transcendental acoustic experience., delicate acoustic guitar! Wow. 19 Tusk. Wonderful, that stage riff version. 20 Tusk , frik! This is the experiment to the top! Punk! Fabulous vocal searching. And different Rythm sounds. Jungle beats, completely going nuts! Camper van Beethoven eat your heart out! I need a bourbon right now. 21 Tusk, creepy vocals in the second part! Oh man the guy just loves to drive things to the extreme. 22 Tusk, super to hear a brassdriven version even with a drumbandbreak in the middle. I'm psyched with this.

Went further with the livedisc 1,
What a joy it is to hear these tracks untouched. Damn, that Chain is simply rocking gorgeous. But so is the open and earthy Don't Stop. On speed! Those voices, they are all so loose and confident in searching eachother, raw and tingling. Love it. Even Dreams is too high paced. Coke? Steve takes so many liberties here. Certainly not the best version, but I'm happy that they were looking for different approaches. And the backingvocals are pretty spot on, so there's always an anchor.

Loving this set, just getting to the end of disk two, but I listened to disc three first. Then onto the live set before sleep, so far highlights have been the new Brown Eyes and the evalution of Tusk and IKINW.
Initially I was so disappointed when Amazon told me Monday delivery, then I remembered autorip, so a quick download, a bottle of red wine and a set of headphones and I'm done for the night!

Can someone please explain something to me? I pre-ordered the new Bruce Springsteen The River set and the new Fleetwood Mac Tusk set on the same day. This morning when I woke up I had an email saying that I could listen to the Bruce Springsteen music that I had bought because there was an auto rip logo next to it. The Fleetwood Mac set that I ordered doesn't have the auto rip and I don't think I ordered a British edition (I live in the US and have never ordered anything from the UK Amazon site). I would have just thought that the Fleetwood Mac set wasn't on auto rip, but now I'm reading all your postings saying that it is. I'm dying to get my ears on it tonight!!!! What happened?

Too much to absorb but love all the Tusks, acoustic Storms, alternate Save Me A Place, and Not That Funny remix. That live Chain is a beast! They could have brought Stevie forward in the mix a little more but it's still one of the most intense live version of the song I've ever heard. Next time I hear someone dismisses FM as being only lightweight Pop, I'm going to make them listen to this performance. Also, interesting that the remastered album proper now includes the mix of IKINW that some of the original album pressings had. I know there has been much talk here about that mix and which version was officially intended for release by the band.
