First of all, I want to thank Jon for all of his work and the determination to get this great new
POB/Bambu
set in stores. I never thought I'd see the day.
Two questions are popping into my mind as I listen, I apologize if these are common questions or have been asked to you a lot during this product's release:
1. What was Kalinch's contribution to "Love Remember Me"? It seems like he was from another 'era' (for lack of a better word) of Dennis' songwriting. Also, this is far and away my favorite
Bambu
track, so much emotion.
2. Has Christine McVie talked about Dennis recently, or ever to you personally? I know she's in England and retired, but she seems like such an open and friendly person (sorry, I've never met her but did see her in concert), that I don't know if she would deny an interview.
3. Do you like Bruce's production on "Love Surrounds Me" on the
LA Light Album
? Personally, I think it's piss-poor, the new version is much superior. Bruce's production gives it no real ambience, sucks the life right out of the tune, everything's so dry, and I don't like the particular high voice that's not McVie.

I like the Beatles a bit more than the Boys of Beach, I think Brian's band is the tops---really amazing. And finally, I'm liberal. That's it.

Have to say that I can't tell the BB version apart from the DW one -- well, I mean, except for the backing harmonies. And the DW version sorely needs something extra like that.

Same here - I've A/B'd the two versions, and they're identical to these ears, Bruce's added frills aside.

1) Stevie wrote some of those lyrics...their collaboration continued on and off through the POB period.
2)Christine rarely mentioned Dennis through the years, citing it as too painful, although lately she's said a few things about him...maybe its time for her perspective.
3)I like Hanlon's mix of Love Surrounds Me better than the L.A. Light mix..and its nice to hear a bit more of Christine in this version.

Thanks for giving us your thoughts Jon.
