If every significant artist has an underrated gem in its catalog, then Mirage is that album for Fleetwood Mac
An obvious return to relative simplicity after the dramatic tension of Rumours and experimental ambitions of Tusk, the 1982 album finds the band re-grouping after a brief hiatus and again climbing to the top of the charts
Extremely well-crafted, well-produced, and well-performed, the double-platinum effort distills the group's hallmark strengths into a filler-free set that never runs short of addictive pop hooks or daft accents
Though Rumours understandably gets a permanent spot in the audiophile hall of fame, the smooth, clear, and dynamic sonics on Mirage confirm that the record that stood as Fleetwood Mac's last effort for five years deserves a place in the same vaunted arena
The presence and imaging of Mick Fleetwood's percussion alone on this reissue might have you wondering how this slice of soft-rock bliss has gone under-noticed for decades
