Music reviews of Bare Trees
Music Review: These Trees Bare Fruit
Rating: 4 Stars
By the release of this 1972 record, the mighty Mac had gone through many changes. With their 1971 LP: "Future Games" a new path was taken by these seasoned veterans of music. They had all but abandoned the: 'Heavy' Blues that they were famous for playing, and toned their music down into melodic Folk/Dreamscapes that drifted into new and different places of seashores and wispy breezes. The guitar was as brilliant as ever with Danny Kirwan and American, Bob Welsh's tasty and spooky lead runs.
"Bare Trees" the 1972 Record by Fleetwood Mac is one of their very best from the: "Middle Period" of FM {After Peter Green and before the arrival of Buckingham/Nicks.} There was a problem here, Danny Kirwan, was now the frontman and center of the Group. He was very wary of the Spotlight, and was near the edge emotionally, not your average Rock Star, by any means.
With ten selections here, 5 of them are Danny's, Bob Welch has 2, and the ever wonderful Christine McVie penned 2 as well. The final cut is a poem by Mrs. Scarrot called: "Thoughts On A Grey Day" which fits the Album's mood perfectly, as this record is about colors and dark shades.
It's the songs that make: "Bare Tress" such a great record. "Child Of Mine" is a Rocker from Danny, that takes it's musicial cues from Peter Green, as you can almost feel him in these grooves. "The Ghost" is one of those tunes from Bob, that fill a certain mood, with lot's of echo and a haunting flavor, laid-back and cool. Christine is up to bat with: "Homeward Bound" and it's an uptempo rocker with great piano and organ {Cowbell, included at no extra cost!} "Sunny Side Of Heaven" is an instrumental from Danny, and it is a bit Cinematic in scope {well, I see pictures when I listen to it!}
The Title Track: "Bare Trees" is one of Danny's finest compositions, the guitar interplay here is fantastic. "Sentimental Lady" is Bob Welch's most famous song. This one would hit the charts more than once, and help him to establish a Solo career, after leaving Fleetwood Mac in 1974. Christine, scores again with: "Spare Me A Little Of Your Love" another great song from a great writer, Christine was the secret weapon of Fleetwood Mac as she always delivered quality material to the Big Mac.
Danny's, final track is called: "Dust" and it's a mellow Folk/Rocker with more of that 'Spooky' double-tracked guitar, and lot's of echo in his voice, this sound is common to Fleetwood Mac music in 1971-72, and it's a very distinctive sound that suits the Band well. At The end is Mrs. Scarrot's reading of her poem: "Thoughts On A Grey Day", and that's is all, as "Bare Trees" comes to a close. This is one of Fleetwood Mac's better recordings, and the last one to feature Danny. As this is still only 1972, there would be so much more Drama to this story called: "Fleetwood Mac" over the next three and a half decades that were to follow this LP entitled: "Bare Trees."
Four Stars.
