Buckingham Nicks - 1973



____________________________________________






The song 'Frozen Love' always takes me back to a much more innocent time in my life... With all the orchestral colorizations, it is one of my all time favorites. I can still remember hearing it on the airwaves in the last days of Underground FM Radio, which ended for me in 1974...

It still baffles me that this is not available to the general public.
The first ten tracks are excellent and make up the original release, which in itself make this an essential collection.

While eleven other tracks are included, making this the 'Deluxe Edition' I suppose; they are substandard and are only worthwhile to that eccentric fan who must have everything.
(I am one)

Here's the list:

01. Crying In The Night
02. Stephanie
03. Without A Leg To Stand On
04. Crystal
05. Long Distance Winner
06. Don't Let Me Down Again
07. Django
08. Races Are Run
09. Lola (My Love)
10. Frozen Love

The second effort from this UK duo:

* Nik Turner (saxophone) of HAWKWIND fame joins them
on track 10 along with Tom Hewitt in the studio (2001)

The original LP which ends at track #8 and which I owned at the time, is a fine example of 70's Psyche...
The genre of music which "should never have existed"
falling between the cracks of
60s Psych and 70s Progressive.
This edition has 6 BONUS tracks,
not 3 as indicated on the cover.
