Fleetwood Mac; Albatross (Blend) by Keith Fullerton Whitman published on 2018-05-30T10:33:28Z Not a "Greatest Hit" per se, but easily my favorite (early) Mac song, edited across multiple versions & fidelities to play somewhat seamlessly for over 2 hours, with the mix slowly being eroded by a cavernous echo that is being gated by the dynamics of the dry signal. EDIT, 06/17/18. I was taken aback by Danny Kirwan's passing a few days after I originally posted this. One of my all-time favorites, esp. within the context of both this lineup of Mac & this particular song; the original studio session which starts off the proceedings here was his first recorded appearance with the band! I've taken the original premise & fleshed it out a bit further, so that it can be put it to rest; this revised version uses the following versions of "Albatross" in a program that loops three times; almost entirely dry, then slowly fading in the reverb signal, finally slowly fading out the dry signal: UK Mono 7" Stereo from "Pious Bird" 1968-11-05 1968-11-17 1969-02-28 1969-09-24 1969-11-06 1969-11-11 1970-01-02 (Radio) 1970-01-02 (Bootleg) 1970-01-31 1970-03-18 Stereo from "English Rose" Comment by Steven Spires razzzee 2021-11-20T14:19:24Z Comment by soundcloudmoon Well done, Keith!
