Future Games
I dont know what it is, but I LOVE this album. I never get tired of listening to it, By far my favorite Album Bob was on. Favorite songs are probably the title track and woman of 1000 years. I'd be curious to get to get others opinions on this. Thank you.

I like Future Games very much, although not as much as some of the later Bob Welch era albums. My favorite songs, in order:
Future Games Show Me A Smile It's just a consistently good album. There are no bad songs anywhere to be found. |

FG was also the biggest change sound-wise from album to album. Because Jeremy was all but absent on Then Play On, Kiln House was kind of a surprise to most people. Had Jeremy's tunes been included on TPO (the songs that were eventually released as Jeremy's first solo album; but really was just Jeremy fronting Fleetwood Mac for a whole album), I DON'T think KH would've been THAT much of a departure sonically. Danny's tunes still pretty much sounded the same and Jeremy's still sounded the same...it just didn't have Peter & songs like "Oh Well" or "Rattlesnake Shake" (although the end of "Tell Me All The Things You Do" is VERY reminiscent of the "Madges") With FG, the new, fresh entity of Bob Welch and the addition of Christine Perfect added a whole new sound along with similar sounding fare of Danny Kirwan. "Woman Of A 1000 Years" is not that much of a departure from "Although The Sun Is Shining" on TPO; "Sands Of Time" is basically "Station Man, Part II", "Sometimes" is "Like Crying" only more hick. Welch, with his title cut & "Lay It All Down" just came out of nowhere. Christine's two tunes..."Morning Rain" would've fit on Kiln House had she joined the band one album sooner'; "Show Me A Smile" was the grandmother of "Songbird". The great "link" song between the sound of Kiln House and Future Games was the Spencer/Kirwan tune "Purple Dancer"...it sounded just enough like KH to be familiar, yet dropped MORE than enough hints as to the upcoming change in direction sound, as well. I've always considered FG as my "Sunday Morning" album.

The upside of the box set: The new tunes, "Silver Springs", "Goodbye Angel", "Teen Beat", Danny Kirwan's long-lost "Trinity", and Bob Welch's alternate take of "Lay It All Down" with the additional verse.

But, actually, I think in lieu of a box set, I would rather just finish off the rest of the Fleetwood Mac catalogue's remasters in their entirety...all the way up to The Dance. And, as I think about it, instead of a box set of studio material, I think I'd compile a fairly comprehensive box set of live material: Disc one: 1967-1970 Disc two: 1971-1974 Disc three: 1975-1982 Disc four: 1987-1990 Disc five: 1994-1995 Disc six: 1997-2007
