Never spent much time listening to it, I must give it another listen.

Definitely do! My mother had it on record and only listened to the second side with "Baby, please stop cryin'" but when I started listening to it, the first side is amazing! It's a great album.

Changing of the Guards is a very long song but one of my favourite songs!

Is Your Love In Vain and Senor are just lovely songs that definitely stay with me.

01 Fleetwood Mac - Tusk

Tusk is such a strange album and I think they acknowledged that?! Some absolute gems on it. It'd be one of my favourites too. Storms and Beautiful Child are wow songs but I also really love The Ledge and Not That Funny!

Oh and Tusk itself of course!

Oh and on that song Beautiful Child, I was listening to it recently and probably not for this thread but anyway only realised that she was singing it to herself and not to someone which makes the song all the more nicer, I think!

NewbridgeIR

Tusk is incredibly strong - diverse, emotional, brilliant song-writing. It's quite fragmented (pieces rather than a whole) and that makes it stronger. The Alternate Tusk (released in 2016 as part of the box set) is mind-blowing.

Camper Van Beethoven have covered the entire album - well worth a listen too https://www.discogs.com/Camper-Van-Beethoven-Tusk/release/2024145

Another fan here, Senor is one of my favourite Dylan songs....

I read it described before as a great but lost song by Dylan because it doesn't get the recognition it deserves.
