jyotirmayadMay 9, 2006The band really tried hard to do a good album without Christine and sometimes it works (Goodbye Baby, Steal Your Heart Away) and other times it doesn't (Red Rover). I like to listen to it though.

RRJan 3, 2005This album is a gem. Ok, so its a little long but, with a few exceptions, its an outstanding album. It beautifully combines the best of Fleetwood Mac's pop sensibilities and their more avant garde tendencies. Personal faves are "Thrown Down", "Steal Your Heart Away","Peacekeeper" and "Smile at You".

BrandonSDec 4, 2004A double album in every way except that it fits on one long cd (as does Tusk, by the way), it's just so very very good. The worst songs are still pretty darn good, and the best songs absolutely soar. (Miranda, Destiny Rules, Thrown Down). It's a stunner.

LindaHMay 24, 2004Awesome! I play it over and over and marvel at the genius of Stevie & Lindsay. (I'm just sad that they could never make their relationship work. It is so obvious they are in love!)

Julie-AnnTApr 5, 2004Great album, it grew on me now I can't stop playing it. From the powerful vocals of stevie's "Running through the Garden" to the outstanding production and guitar prowess of Buckingham on tracks like "Come", a must for Mac fans.

BrianCJan 24, 2004Considering how long they've been in the business, it's amazing to learn how contemporary and creative they still are. Thrown Down, Say You Will, Miranda, Steal Your Heart Away, Everybody Finds Out, What's the World Coming to and Peacekeeper are as great as tracks from "Fleetwood Mac" and "Rumours".

YeeehahJowitnessOct 28, 2003I absolutely love this cd!! All of you people who say it's not the best are just a bunch of stupie-poopie heads. I especially love Illume, that song has so much meaning after 9/11!

bettejJun 12, 2003Brilliant, people will call it too long and pretentious but what do they know?! The Mac are legends in their own right and this is affirmation that their glory era was a period of greater recognition as opposed to greater music. Shame to see Christine McVie disappears. A solid effort that puts today's image-based drivel in perspective.

BruceHMay 30, 2003Time will tell, but I think this CD will eventually be regarded as a minor classic. The songs strike me as endlessly inventive and I keep returning to this music for another taste. Great production by Lindsey!

CourtneyNMay 20, 2003I have always loved Fleetwood Mac and love all of their music so this album is worth a 10 because we have waited long enough for this latest album

ChristopherEApr 29, 2003Through not all of the 18 songs hit the mark, the over-long provides amble evidence that Fleetwood Mac still has something to say. Buckingham's production has never made Nicks more relevent. Highlights: Red Rover, Mirands, Say You Will, Thrown Down

RonMApr 29, 2003It's Ok, Peacekeeper is worth having, but nothing compares to their earlier songs like Rhiannon and Go Your Own Way, Gypsy, Dreams and Future Games

MarkFApr 28, 2003Classic Fleetwood Mac! This album gets better with each listen. Even the experimental and offbeat LB tracks get their hooks into you after a few listenings. Amazing stuff, but then we really shouldn't be amazed. And I do not miss CM. I always found her material and performances a bit bland, anyway.

PaulBApr 17, 2003I think that our expectations are too high. When compared with other groups and taking the best 10 songs on the album, this is a quality CD.

Awards & Rankings
-
The record shows too many signs of superstar pretension, from the thick liner notes to the grueling 76-minute length.
-
There are too many songs, simply too much to make Say You Will work, even if there is enough to admire to make you wish it did.

UncutTusk this isn't, but Tusk it doesn't need to be. In an age of off-the-shelf LInda Perry pop, the Mac keep the mainstream interesting. [May 2003, p.98]
