In a message dated 98-10-21 09:22:25 EDT, you write: << Yes, I love his playing. Subtle, hypnotic. I'm surprised at the negative response to the Fleetwood Mac reunion. Yes, there is hardly any new material, and there is more of Stevie Nicks to look at, but they sound so much better live now than 20 years ago. I think they are a great band. I didn't see the need for backup singers and extra musicians though. >> >It's a reunion thing. I don't understand it but when groups re-form they take >on all these extra hired hands.

Compare >that to the incomparable, incendiary 3 piece with singer from "Live at Leeds". >Sad, sad, sad. >Arnie I see your point. Just like comparing Roxy "On The Road" with "High Road". I guess they were ahead of their time. A little different in that they actually recorded an album with the new "big band". Those new songs sounded great, but the older stuff was silly. I think we stray so much because there is nothing new to talk about. And if there is something going on it takes forever or it never happens. There were so many versions of Roxy, I think it would be very hard to compile one band to play it all. Look for the Big Band w/ a few of the original guys if it ever happens.
