The four hundred and fourty-seventh album: #447 Fleetwood Mac - Tusk

There are two options, it seems, for the contents of a double album. One, which we'll see tomorrow, is a coherent set of tracks that really seeks to tell a story. The other is today's Tusk, which is a mix of styles (almost divided based on the different band members writing them), where it feels more like the band is doing their best to get their different ideas out. While staying on the calmer side, with some of the rock tracks getting into pop ballad territory, it's hard to pin that down as the definite evolution. It's not as folksy, not even as upbeat, but there's a really reassuring flow to the album that makes it lovely to get immersed in.
