This lp and it's cut 'Come a little bit closer' , a FM standard of 1976-77, was one of the few bright spots,musically, of what was a very dark and lethargic period in American popular music. Christine McV.'s hypnotic piano playing and hauntingly vulnerable vocals on that tune specifically and on the rest of the work,generally, make this a solid catalog buy for any serious collector . . .CMLFree Music Review: "IF I COULD SING LIKE PAUL McCARTNEY..." BOB & CHRISTINE ON TOP
Hit: 5 Stars
this is such a beautiful album. christine perfect's songs has never been so good, very consistent songs, nice fender rhodes, very balance, her voice sounds so fluid and she teamed so well with bob welch, too bad that was their last album under this line-up that i loved so much, best line-up for me (with peter green of course).
"prove your love" is wonderful. bob welch is on top with "silver heels" and references to sir paul and etta james, his guitars are so tasty, the harmonies are as perfect as christine, and his voice very rockous, mick fleetwood is as always very solid, what a great drummer, sober, but you feel him. the atmospheric songs of bob welch are incredible, i don't understand why he's not like a superstar.
anyway, this album is amazing and remind me a bit of "future games" and the song "bright fire".
it's also the first time bob doesn't have a guitar partner. and the new production sounds probably as good as martin birch. the only thing is that warner should remaster all the albums from that period with bonus, then it would be pure heaven.
Free Music Review: 4 Stars for the 70's Music Standard
Hit: 4 Stars
At this point the band was best known as a British Blues band, and acclimated with a style that was reminiscent to the US California Style, thanks to the American Guitarist Bob Welch, writing most of the songs on this album and peaking as a great songwriter.
"Heroes are Hard to find" is a great British Blues rock album, defining the 1970's big contribution to the Rock Music. This album is recommended for the 70's Blues Soft Rock lovers and, definitely to all Fleetwood Mac Fans.
3 stars for today's music standard, 4 stars for the 70's.
Free Music Review: VERY Underrated Mac album
Hit: 4 Stars
I am a huge Fleetwood Mac fan, and when I say that, I mean that I am a huge fan of the rhythm section of Mick Fleetwood and John McVie, and all of the talented musicians that they have drafted into their band over the last 40 years.
I own most of the band's studio output, but only recently picked up this album due to the fact that so many fans have been lamenting it for so long. All I have to ask is "what's wrong with everybody?" After giving this only a few listens, I have decided that it is my favorite album, only second place after the group's double-whopper TUSK.
This is by far the band's darkest and murkiest album, and the odd cover artwork emphasizes that fact. I guess most people don't expect 'dark' of Fleetwood Mac, but IMO it works here. I can honestly say that the only song on this album that I don't enjoy is Bob Welch's "Born Enchanter." Even if he is being tongue-in-cheek (which I sincerely hope he is), the song grates on my nerves for some reason.
I simply love the triple lineup of Welch numbers "Coming Home"-"Angel"-"Bermuda Triangle," leading directly into Christine's "Come a Little Bit Closer." And I think that "Prove Your Love" is a new favorite, as I can't seem to stop playing it.
The only reason I am giving this album 4 stars is because, like others have said, the production could have been better and "Born Enchanter" is rather annoying. However, I think the former problem can be improved upon with some remixing and remastering of the album. Get on those Fleetwood Mac reissues Rhino/Warner Bros!!!
