Read the whole story here , cause I ain't repeating it! (see last note)
2023 Update: Why so little participation by Spencer? He was promised an EP to be included with the album. Needless to say .
Another clueless Rolling Stone magazine review John Morthland (12/13/69) said Fleetwood Mac had fallen "flat on their faces", "Most of the music on the album is slow and wandering — instruments in search of an idea." and later dismissed the album as mostly "nondescript ramblings." |
