Rumours - remastered DeLuxe Edition (CD)

Customer Review

Sold over 30 million copies, with unstoppable singles surrounded by quality songs, Rumours, 11th album of Anglo-American Fleetwood Mac (since the arrival of the doublet Nicks, Buckingham appeared on their eponymous second two years earlier) is an artistic triumph as much as commercial. Yet no album has been recorded under ideal conditions ...

Because the heavens are not exactly cloudless blue in training. Already because the tumultuous relationship between Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham led to many squabbles between the two intermittent lovers who also form a team famous songwriters something to do with the miraculous revival of artistic and commercial Fleetwood Mac. Then because the marriage between John and Christine McVie (born Perfect, it can not be invented!) Seriously floundering and elsewhere will soon end, barely completed the tour. Add to that the outburst of paparazzi and the press people that period, to the smell of blood, turns up as a thirsty pack, and tells a lot of crap that does not help. In short, this is not the joy, happily, at least!, That all is well in the life of this great crazy Mick Fleetwood!
All this should have led to a disastrous wafer, a filthy rotten gruel pitched battles and disagreements if there had been fierce will to each of the musicians to surpass themselves and to offer the most beautiful letters from their more beautiful feathers. The result was immediate, driven by a series of singles all reached the Top 10 US nationals charts, with even a Number One (Dreams, signed Stevie Nicks), the album sold like hotcakes to a hungry crowd, and even picks up the cup with a double first place in the States and Great Britain in their "semi-native" (and 27th in France, er ...). It must be said that this polished rock, poppisé casts a wide net and is not intended to shock. It's "feelgood music" in question, a slight thing, sunny, expertly performed and recorded course and, miracle, holds that little extra soul, the substance that makes more than a beast aeuvre passage, more than just candy for the ears. Obviously, all these songs were built in order to please the ear of the listener with their melodic hooks well found their perfect mixed vocal harmonies, their flow worthy of a desert highway (ha! Roll in Convertible to Monument Valley to the sound of Dreams!). What good songs and more, because that Fleetwood Mac also does well in the playful (the irresistible opening track, Second Hand News), in the most licked Californian rock and ear-friendly (but obviously Dreams other mégatubes, Do not Go and Go Your Own Way, and some other securities (as successful) as being the major hunting ground for training in the second half of the seventies) in the delicacies arpeggiated (Never Going Back Again, too little wonder product of the imagination of delicious Lyndsey Buckingham) or strummed (the pretty ballad Songbird so delicately sung by its author, Christine McVie).
12 tracks, 44 minutes, no waffle, the results ... and 30 million satisfied consumers (not including pirated!) ... It is impressive? It is deserved!

Who says says Deluxe bonus and the least we can say is that the right house Warner Bros has not been stingy with good quality material. First, there is the live or rather the lives of multiple sources of Rumours tour having been assembled to obtain the honest quality result that is mainly because, out bootlegs, no official live this tour was yet published. Quality honest because with a live sound, the compositions lose a bit of their superb which owed much to the accuracy of their recording and production. Not unworthy however, it is a pleasant experience especially as some older pieces are slid them for the happiness of all.
Then, and this is the true essence of what Deluxe, one discovers archives, studio falls which, as usual when well chosen, we offer some interesting bonuses as well as other enabling us, furtively, fleetingly to believe, little mouse stashed in a corner of the recording studio and tasting the "work in progress" a aeuvre now legendary. A real little happiness beautiful quality that it will not necessarily exclusively to fans who are still, of course!, Are target caeur (as they say).

Album timeless, unchanging pillar of a triumphant classic rock, Rumours remains, more than three decades after its release, a Rolls album, a thing extremely simple and unstoppable sometimes we loved to hate as it was imposing but ultimately steals the show, even in the luxurious Deluxe remaster here now. And if we sense it would have been possible to even better care to approach the sound of the original vinyl, the quality is so improved over previous CD edition that would be ungracious to be choosy at the time of course Recommend acquisition and repeated listening to respectable volume of this monument in absolutely no danger, evidence of Fleetwood Mac from 1975 to 1979 who familiarly stars.
