Just Tell Me That You Want Me: A Tribute to Fleetwood Mac is out in stores on August 14 but seven of the tracks have already been released (!!!!). Produced by the same guy who threw together the killer Buddy Holly tribute album Listen to Me (where Stevie Nicks covers Let’s Fade Away), Just Tell Me features Lykke Li, MGMT (meh), Best Coast, Billy Gibbons and more. Here are the sample tracks:
And because I will take any and every opportunity to post Wild Heart, here ya go:
Layla will probably be in eronyeve’s list, I guess. I also love Hey Hey by Clapton.The 60s & 70s were great decades for music. I grew up listening to ABBA & Boney-M I’m a Marionette & Daddy Cool are my eternal favorites.Some of the numbers I couldn’t get enough of were Happy Together by Turtles ; Walk Don’t Run by The Ventures ; The Come September Theme by Bobby Darin; All Across the Universe by the Beatles. Its a long list.What list is complete without The Monkees How about I’m a Believer ?And embarrassingly enough, I’m guilty of OD-ing on Sugar Sugar by the Archies CJ: They were great decades, weren’t they? Some of the songs from the 60s and 70s are truly timeless and the songwriting was so strong. I like the early 80s as well but much of the creativity just seemed to go out of the industry after that.Some great songs you listed too. I forgot about The Monkees! I’m a Believer is a fun song and then there’s Neil Diamond as well. I used to love Happy Together but then my music teacher made us sing it every day for four months. Now it just makes me want to run from the room!And it’s been a long time since I heard Sugar Sugar. I’ll have to try and get it out of my head again now.
