Listening to the title track of this new release I began to ask myself a question: “At point did Lindsey Buckingham start to become Robert Pollard?” For all the great reviews I see out there, people seem to be missing the point that Mr. Buckingham is spending more time working on sonic textures and atmosphere than melodic pop or rock. Not that this is a bad album. It’s pretty good. “Out of the Cradle” came out ten years ago and seemed to be more of a bridge to this type of music. Long gone are the Fleetwood Mac rock guitar theatrics and Brian Wilson styled elegance. Some songs don’t really work for me, “It Was You” sounds like he left the echo machine on too long and “I am Waiting” is a bit like a lullaby, that will put you to sleep. However the genius that is Lindsey Buckingham reveals itself on many other tracks. “Cast Away Dreams” is a great classic LB song as well as anything here’s done. Much of his solo guitar work is breathtaking. And let’s face it here, is anyone else who’s been in the music biz over 40 years trying somthing new? I give him a bit more credit for that, however this album is not for everyone. The casual Fleetwood Mac fan need not apply. You can buy this album on Amazon.
