This album represents the classic Fleetwood Mac sound of "Rumours" and "Tusk" brought into a 1980s setting. That doesn't necessarily sound like a good thing, and this album isn't quite up to the sound of those two classic albums. But it is still one of their best albums with a consistently solid lineup of good to great tracks, including hits such as the almost mystifyingly depressing "Little Lies" and the uplifting "Everywhere". Another classic love song on the album is Stevie Nicks' "Seven Wonders". The album opens up with Lindsey Buckingham's memorable and funky "Big Love," which has been sampled a number of times since its release.
Unfortunately this was the last studio album featuring Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie. They are three very talented writers and it's there combined strength that makes this album such a classic. While it does a bit too '80sish,' it is still highly recommended.
