Fleetwood Mac is a second
generation band that, having
survived the changes of the
turbulent sixties, is now
probably the best pqp/rock
band of the mid-seventies.
Success had eluded the band
until the release of Fleetwood
Mae, an album that rode the top
of the charts most of the last
year, produced three top-ten
singles, and recieved much
critical acclaim. The album
premiered two new members:
guitarist - vocalist - writer
Lindsay Buckingham and vo
calist - writer Stephanie Nicks,
formerly a duo called
Buckingham Nicks.
Buckingham and Nicks brought
to the band intelligent
non-cosmic lyrics, memorable
melodies, and strong harmonic
vocal coloring.
The secret to their success
is a sense of commercial safety
that does not interfere with the
music. The brand of music
Fleetwood Mac produces can
appeal to older, seasoned
audience as , well as to younger
listeners. Their full potential as
a group was realized in music
meant to entertain, not to
burden its iisteners with
pretension.
Much like its predecessor,
the new album Rumours is
meant to entertain. All songs
are uplifting and positive, while
excitment is never sacrified.
Immaculate, well thought-out
production and tight,
highly-crafted arrangements
are Rumours' strong points.
Choice of material is balanced
between upbeat rockers and
soft acoustic ballads like
Christine McVie's "Songbird"
f, ad Nick's "Dreams."
Wiseman
The fourth film presentation
in the Frederick Wiseman Film
Documentary Series will be
"Juvenile Court."
The film, which won the
1974 Dupont Award for
excellence in broadcast jour
nalism, deals with the daily
routine of a juvenile court.

graduate course entitled "The
Consumer, Industry, and Gov

The course, designed for
teachers, examines the complex
relationship between the con
sumer, business, labor and
government from a multiplicity
of viewpoints. Spokes men from
these sectors demonstrate the
basic economic question: how
resources are allocated and
organized to meet the con
sumer's needs. The course also
centers on methods that enable
teachers to introduce course
material into the classroom.

There is no longer a need to

Musically, Sea Level takes

the Allman Brothers Band on

liberally with Allman-brand

occasional Memphis-style horns.

Pink Floyd's Animals is
a rather disapointing affair on
all counts. Sixties psychedelia

is a genre known as Space rock.
Animals falls somewhere be

The new album layi bare
Pink Floyd's limited musical
abilities. Most of the material
here ,is stuffed with long,
incompetent guitar solos that
serve mainly as filler. Music
never was Pink Floyd's strong
point; it was always the
demented illusions and the
wonderfully crazy imaginations
of its members that made them
unique as well as famous.
