Bel Air Rain
Ok, I've noticed in other reviews of Gift Of Screws, that Ledgies are kinda downing this track. So I figured I'd send it some love, because I honestly think this is the coolest song Lindsey has ever recorded. The guitar work is simply entrancing. I LOVE the brutal honesty of the lyrics, example: "in my younger days, I was mistaken for a whore." I don't think I've ever heard Lindsey be so up front and downright brutal in his lyrics... I love it! I just love all the references to his past in Fleetwood Mac and his solo career "you could say I lived in chains" (an obvious nod to the Chain, and it's irony) and "I went insane" (an obvious reference to Go Insane). I think it's fascinating that though Lindsey is being so candid about doors being shut on him after Rumours, that he still feels like his success has been the cause of his failure. He can't complain because he's in Bel Air. I just love it all. The finger picking on this song is simply devine. I could just go on about it forever. Anybody else have some love to show for this song??
