I think this has to be their best album, maybe along with Rumours. At least it's one of my favorites, solid, really solid pop/soft rock. So...
Beyond the boundaries of perfection: Why A gift from the Gods: Emerald Eyes, Hypnotized, The Way I Feel, Just Crazy Love, Keep On Going, Believe Me, Forever Truly fantastic songs: Somebody, Miles Away, The City Really good: For Your Love

Gotta love digging up some of these older threads ...
Simply The Best: Bob Welch shines with 14 karat gold! Great: Hypnotized, Keep On Going, Miles Away, Why, Emerald Eyes, Believe Me, The Way I Feel, Somebody Good: The City, Forever, For Your Love Ok: Just Crazy Love All around * CLASSIC * middle era Mac Of Note: - Bob Welch + Bob Weston guitar interplay, and Weston's knockout arrangement of Christie's Why - Christie's first huge album splash with the Mac, and her dynamite delivery on Welch's Keep On Going - great strings too! - Mick and John's rhythmic muscle - For Your Love (the old Yardbird's cover) replaced Welch's Good Things (Come To Those Who Wait) on the album just before official release (too bad too) Last edited by snoot; 12-08-2008 at 06:33 AM.. |

Of course Hypnotized and Why are at the top of the list for me, but Emerald Eyes is really one of those beauties that I most definitely listen to alot as well.

Mystery To Me is a top notch, pre Rumours album full of underatted songs in Fleetwood Mac's extensive catalogue of music. In my opinion, the best track on there is "Why". It is wonderfully performed. Such a sadly under appreciated little gem, if you ask me.

EXCELLENT: Somebody, Just Crazy Love, The City(agree that the lyrics are average) SOLID: Forever, The Way I Feel This is a solid album, and I think it's reaches amazing heights. Most people say Christine shined during Tango, but I think she shined her too. Bob Welch was just as solid. Emerald Eyes have jazz harmonies that really please my ear. AAAhhh I love those harmonies and that drum kick!

I create 5 categories for this jewel of an album:
1. These songs are among the best the band-community ever did- I am thrilled listening to: Hypnotized, Forever, Miles away, Keep on going, Emerald eyes (A+) 2. Believe me ledgies - these ones are great: Believe me, Just crazy love, The city, Why (B) 3. I'm not somebody who totally loves: Somebody (C) 4. I`m not feeling too excited listening to: The way I feel (C-) 5. I want to be Miles away when this song starts to play: For your love (D) Stefan |

Mystery to Me review - Rolling Stone
I came across this and thought it was funny. Mystery to Me is a great album and in the better half of Mac albums. IMHO its when the Mac got its groove and was fairly successful in the USA. Rolling Stone always has had odd reviews for the Mac or Mac members (excluding Lindsey). Any hoooo....here it is

Sorry
I did not realize reviews of this album were in the other Mystery to me thread. Maybe Michele will delete this or move it there.
