THE DANCE was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Pop Album. "Silver Springs" was nominated for a 1998 Grammy for Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal. "The Chain" was nominated for a 1998 Grammy for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
Inasmuch as Fleetwood Mac's classic 1970s albums drew much of their charm from their quirky arrangements and fastidious studio craft, it's a bit odd that the band would choose to reunite with a live, largely unplugged album. But somehow, the first album by the Fleetwood-McVie-McVie-Buckingham-Nicks lineup since 1987's TANGO IN THE NIGHT manages to recapture a good deal of the old feel, which had a lot to do with three very different singer-songwriters agreeing to live together under the umbrella of a single flexible rhythm section.
After dispensing with the group effort "The Chain," which leads off this set, the reconstituted Mac spends the rest of the album showing off its separate parts for the distinct elements they are, while mixing a few new songs into a collection of classics. Lindsey Buckingham rips through the late-period hit "Big Love" unaccompanied, compensating for his shrinking vocal range with some blistering guitar picking. Stevie Nicks stretches out "Rhiannon" like one of her flowing dresses, with a piano-ballad opening. Christine McVie, whose alluring, matronly rock voice remains undiminished, offers the lovely new "Temporary One," which, one hopes, doesn't describe this reunion.
Rolling Stone (9/4/97, pp.68-70) - 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...Fleetwood Mac deliver the old tunes here with note-perfect skill and obvious enthusiasm....The new songs blend in seamlessly, sounding at once like familiar old pals..." Entertainment Weekly (8/22-8/29/97, pp.131-132) - "...As much present-tense emotion as these songs offer, they live up to the high melodic standards of the band's past. The result puts Mac right in step with the current, tuneful direction of pop..." - Rating: A
MIND BLOWING TALENT! Most bands have at least 2 or 3 songs that you just don't like, not one on this album is bad and on the DVD Fleetwood Mac puts on a great show and that's what it's all about......... not only the music but the show, and they did it!

GREAT! This cd is just great! Stevie's live version of Silver Springs is just one of the highlights of the album. Buy it, its good! Submitted by Rick (St. Louis, MO) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo 0 of 1 found this helpful.
c'mon..it is the mac who's back perhaps a little bit too polished, but a very good show. especially for a band that hadn't been playing for a long time. LIndsey is the ultimate guitar god. The appearence of the USC trojan marching band made this record reach its climax. It is the last recording output with christine mcvie.
All in all....a good purchase, definitely you wont regret it, good even for the beginners, it is a greatest hits live!!!. Enjoy it!. Submitted by polo (america) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo 0 of 1 found this helpful.
