Review:
Disappointing
Oh dear. I have the
greatest respect for both Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie, but I think
this is a pretty feeble effort, I'm afraid.
The material is very average, the performances lack much fire and the
production is pretty thin.
This is an album of rather bland pop songs. The lyrics are unexceptional and the tunes
fairly catchy but rather forgettable.
Frankly, the sound reminds me of The Archies. (Oh come on – you must remember Sugar, Sugar
even if you wish you couldn't.) It's
amiable enough pop, but it doesn't add up to anything much in the end.
I won't go on and on about it, but I was disappointed in
this album. I expected something far
better from two fine musicians (and a band which, apart from Stevie Nicks is
effectively Fleetwood Mac). Instead, I
got an album made up almost entirely of unoriginal, fairly disposable
trivia. It could be worse, but
personally I wouldn't bother.
