Keeping In Touch

We're back down to a soft,
floating melody in "Show me a
Smile," the only selection that
features the young, yet mature
voice of Christine McVie. The
few rather abrupt and powerful
segments of this song hold its
touch with the real world and
prevent the listener from being
fooled by a sugar-coated love
song. "Show Me a Smile" ends
the album on a soft, but
positive note, similar to the one
with which our experience
began.

Future Games is worthy of
attention because it reveals the
talent, diversity, innovation,
and imagination of a "new"
Fleetwood Mac. The album is
an enjoyable and relaxing
declaration of change which
provides a look into the
promising future of a capable
group.

Future Games is now
available at the Band Box.
