A discussion on Talkbass made me think about Fleetwood Mac's "Tango In The Night" album. I couldn't sleep last night, and it had been a while, so I gave that one a spin. Tango started out as a L. Buckingham solo project, and ended up in his (first) departure from Fleetwood Mac before the supporting tour. Stevie Nicks reportedly spent two weeks on it, sending demos and ideas instead. She was touring in support of her own "Rock A Little" record at the time. The band was already fractured. The record still produced hits. I was a senior in high school that year.

The discussion, FWIW, was about John's Kramer Ferrington bass, as seen on Little Lies, and Seven Wonders vids. That was auctioned recently, along with two of his Alembics, and a few other basses.

Anyway... Tango In The Night. It will not help you sleep. Especially not the title cut-



*my musical football team, East Nash Grass got at least one of their wishes granted... they are playing the Grand Ole Opry on Tuesday night. https://www.opry.com/artists/east-nash-grass

Go, ENG! 

Went to look up Fever Tree's Hey Joe that was referenced in a different thread.  I like what they did with it.

In the side bar this showed up, ironically aligned with another thread, it declares that the Rick-o-matic sound was created by Chris Squire.

Glad you enjoyed the "Hey Joe", Paul.
At the first college i attended, the Student Government's Quality Of Life Committee would put on monthly "bops"; put together the best stereo we could (from a small - ~175 - student body, but all hippies and most - not I, alas - with trust funds), get a quart of Everclear for the 5 gallons of punch, 3 kegs of beer, and boogie all night.
I would invariably make sure that got put on at some point; granted some of my schoolmates groaned, but most just danced - all 12:58 of it!  (Yes, there is some chance that controlled substances were involved......)

I am hoping there will be audio/video eventually...

I dunno - Based on "Free As A Bird", I haven't been paying attention to how they did this one - but I'm afraid it kinda shows that Stu, John, George, and Paul I are all gone.......

Peter (who hasn't noticed "Free As a Bird" replacing "Free Bird" in audience yells......)

While My Guitar Gently Weeps. 

I'm confused today....

Was going to post "All quiet on the Mersey Front" then got distracted by this one:

I learned the guitar riff on "All quiet on the Mersey Front" fairly fast but the bass line has a few spots I can't get yet. Also the rhythm guitar has some unique voicings I haven't cracked yet.

Every so often, something on pop-country radio catches up with my tastes...
