I also heartily agree with this! It’s such a complete experience, a true album.

I don’t dislike those songs, and I really do love the album as a whole, but like I always do, especially with a band as frustrating as late-career Fleetwood Mac, or in this case solo Lindsey, I like to make my own fantasy playlists, throw in those “missed opportunity” songs that I really feel should have been represented on an album.. I replaced Blind Love with Ride This Road, took out Time, and put Hunger between Santa Rosa and Dancing, a much needed little pep-step up at the end for me! |

^ Oh I love “Hunger”! Great idea.

Blind Love is my favorite!

I can't stop listening. I think it's fantastic. Might possibly be my favorite of his.

I'm loving the new CD. In the past I would buy the newest album on it's release date and play it until I couldn't listen to it any more, so I'm taking it slower on this one. Who knows how long it will be before we get something else new. The great thing about Lindsey's production is that there are so many layers you have to listen to it many times to hear all the different parts. I've had Santa Rosa stuck in my head for days!

Yes I agree. Every time I listen to it I pick something else I didn’t hear before. This really is a gem and like the BuckMcVie album limiting it to 10 tracks is a good call. |

Ken Bruce Radio 2…just played, “I’m on the wrong side “.
saying that this song was from Lindsey Buckingham’s new Album.. good plug for the Album as Ken is very popular. ( in the UK) And …I’m on the wrong side …is on Radio2’s playlist….so lots of plays for it. |

Late to the party...only got this album a couple of days ago.
I love this collection...most of it. On The Wrong Side, Scream and Blue Light are my favourites. I Don't Mind, Santa Rosa and Blind Love are good. Swan Song is quirky. Not yet sure about Power Down. Not loving Time or Dancing. Indeed, Time sucks balls. If he's going to play somebody else's song....why go for that dirge? The intro to Scream sounds straight from Sad Angel. Where does this rank amongst all his solo records??? hmm?

I agree about Time. I don’t even know what his problem is.

I'm pleasantly surprised how little electric guitar the new album has. I hear just 3-4 songs with it. Does "Power Down" have it? "Dancing" "On The Wrong Side" and "Swan Song" do. And I hear just two songs with electric guitar solos (the latter two).
In fact, there is arguably just one other song with a guitar solo at all: "Blind Love," which contains a repeated acoustic figure over which Lindsey does some wordless singing (arguably a solo, arguably not). I'm stunned he didn't release "Santa Rosa" as the lead single. To my ear, it's a classic and far and away the best song on the album – second best being "Dancing," which I also enjoyed in its previous incarnation "Treason." I'll also say I find wholly unlistenable "Scream" – with its bell sound so tortuous it warrants a firing squad. my current ranking of his solo albums: 1. Out Of The Cradle (fantastic songwriting, marred only by some poor use of drum machine that I chalk up either to Lindsey improving at the craft by the 2000's, his abandoning it by then in favor of hand percussion, or the technology greatly improving) 2. Under The Skin (my kind of album) 3. Gift Of Screws ("Wait For You" should have gone on SYW or at the very least on Solo Anthology) 4. Seeds We Sow 5. Lindsey Buckingham 6. Law And Order – The two best songs–"Trouble" and "Shadow Of the West"–are great, but start-to-finish I rank the new album higher. 7. Go Insane – Again "Slow Dancing" and arguably the title track are stadnouts (though the live acoustic "Go Insane" draws the greatness of even that one into question), but the remainder IMO is awful.

If he substituted "Blind Love" for "Hunger and "Dancing" for "Ride This Road", and I would have enjoyed the album even more. Apparently his record label wanted new material on the Anthology album, so he selected "Hunger" and "Ride This Road" to fulfill that requirement. Given the album's relatively short run-time, I'm curious if the two aforementioned songs were originally intended for his eponymous release.
