Great idea. I do something a little similar in my journal called Last Chance Saloon, where I look at an album I've never liked, or "got", and give it one more chance, just to see if as you say, time and experience changes my impression of it. To date, really none have. But it's still interesting to do. You feel like your're finally giving the albums a proper chance.
Great review of "Rumours", which is, of course, one of the greatest albums ever of the period. The vocal talents of Stevie, Chrissie and Lindsey just blow you away and the album is, as you say, a mix of ballads and uptempo rockers with quite a bit of the old bluesy Fleetwood Mac in there too. And then there's the picture of a young sexy innocent looking Stevie on the back. Whooarrr!
I love the fact that you've gone total 180 on this album, and I bet your dad is happy you finally get it. Interested to see how the next reviews turn out.
Oh, and welcome to Journal Land! You're in for Sunday's update, fo' sho', as they say!
