Fleetwood Mac "English Rose" LP

Fleetwood Mac's "English Rose" is a strong compilation. Originally published in 1969 and now back in print! Tracks like "Without You," "Something Inside Of Me," & the churning "One Sunny Day" strike a real chord for me. Similarly, "Love That Burns" is a slow smoker filled with romantic misery. Fleetwood Mac's original "Black Magic Woman" that would later capture the U.S. charts in its version by Santana is a rougher sinister version by FM. The set concludes with the bouncy blues by Elmore James "Coming Home" and the band's first British chart song, Peter Green's instrumental "Albatross." Liner notes are replete with band history and the sound on the disc is good. This is a strong vintage sampling of the band's early work. Enjoy!
