Fleetwood Mac Albums Ranked From Worst To Best

The most conflictive entry in the entirety of the group's dynasty is undoubtedly Tango in the Night; an album that is well remembered but hasn't aged very well.

Let's look at the positive's first: Fleetwood Mac's best ever line-up are all present and accounted for. The symphonic brilliant pop simplicity really shone quite brightly in 1987 and certain tracks like Everywhere and Little Lies are still greatly overplayed at every Grandparents' surprise party across the nation. The production values were substantially head and shoulders above most of their work, with the album feeling almost spiritually lifting at times.

The negatives on the other hand are quite problematic.

The tone of the album is far too consistently all over the place, as one moment you'll be queuing mistimed notes into your "airbrush" to the exuberant melody of Little Lies, only to be greeted by the drearily misconstrued "Family Man". If you're not battling with the fact that they brought external writers into the fray for this release, combined with the shifting quality from one track to the next it's clearly evident that a good portion of these songs were simply not coming from the same place that they had been long for a long time.

The personal lives of the colourful personalities on display now felt monotonous, monochrome and monotone.
