Bare Trees Reviews:
Great Album 
2009-10-31 - This is a great CD. Great Bass riffs by McVee, great vocals, and great/amazing guitars. A great 70's band with that 70's vintage rock!
Bare Trees is a must hear! 
2009-10-09 - Excellent pre-Stevie Nicks, Lyndsay Buckingham CD. American guitarist Robert Welch has a different style from what most will come to recognize, but is a good mix for the blues background of the band. Sentemental Lady is the best know track and alone is worth the price of the CD. Classic Mac!
No ReMaster Mars Mac Masterpiece
2009-10-03 - Why isn't this music (along with Future Games) REMASTERED? These two albums I have loved since the 70s capture a breathtaking part of the legacy that IS Fleetwood Mac, and from my point of view, blows away almost every album created by the later hit-driven incarnation with Lyndsay Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. The Fleetwood Mac on Bare Trees and Future Games (Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine Perfect (McVie), Danny Kirwan, who wrote half the songs on Bare Trees, and Bob Welch).....still felt the echo of the band's past glory, and the echoes of the sixties ending, and used it to look forward and create atmospheric, intriguing, complex, and meaningful music. And...this album ROCKS with great guitar work by Kirwan and Welch that leave later Mac albums in shame. From Bob Welch's haunting 'The Ghost' and the original version of his later hit 'Sentimental Lady' (better on this album), to Danny Kirwan's rock anthems 'Child of Mine' and title track 'Bare Trees' to the introspective 'Dust', this album leaves the listener wanting more. I am at a loss why Mick Fleetwood and John McVie would remaster the later Mac catalogue, yet leave these REAL gems Bare Trees and Future Games not re-issued to save these great moments of the band's history. The music suffers from the direct to disc transfer, yet the magic in it shines through. I am also disappointed that the songs from these two albums never appear on Mac compilations. For a lot of us THIS group was the Fleetwood Mac that had a message, and, sorry to say, later versions of the band were mere hit factories.
"I come so together where you are..."
2009-09-01 - I never much cared for Bob Welch's SENTIMENTAL LADY, when he had the big hit version in '77. I didn't HATE it, but I thought it was mediocre at best...Then one day, I finally heard the original version, which is on THIS album...What a GREAT song!!!!!! The arrangement, on this Fleetwood Mac version, allows the song to really stand on it's own. It's simpler, albeit longer, more subtle in it's delivery,...and much better off for it! It's MUCH better than the '77 Bob Welch solo version. By a long shot!!! Others here, comment extensively on all the merits of this fine album, and it would just be redundant for me to say the same stuff that has already been said. I just wanted to put my two cents in about SENTIMENTAL LADY. It makes me wonder: How many "mediocre" songs have I heard since the mid-late 70's, that would have actually been GOOD, or GREAT songs, had they been recorded at an earlier time, before disco and slick, "David Foster" type producers watered the music down????
