1970 LP Reprise Records 6408-2

Kiln House is the fourth album by British rock band Fleetwood Mac, released in 1970. This is the first of the post-Peter Green Fleetwood Mac albums, and their last album to feature Jeremy Spencer. Christine McVie was present at the recording sessions and contributed backing vocals and cover art, although she was not a full member of the band until shortly after the album's completion. Spencer's retro 50s homages and parodies dominate the album, but Danny Kirwan's more sincere songs are almost equally prominent. "Buddy's Song" is credited to Buddy Holly's mother, but is basically the song "Peggy Sue Got Married" with new lyrics listing a number of Buddy Holly song titles. An early version of Kirwan's instrumental "Earl Gray", entitled "Farewell", was later released on the compilation The Vaudeville Years.



Fleetwood Mac was still primarily a blues band on this, their first album after the departure of founder/nominal leader Peter Green. But the remaining members, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Jeremy Spencer, and Danny Kirwan (plus McVie's wife, Christine, not yet officially part of the group) started broadening the band's use of blues into other contexts, and adding new influences in the absence of Green's laser-like focus. Jeremy Spencer's fascination with American rock & roll manifests itself on the album opener, "This Is the Rock" (which crosses paths with Elvis Presley's Sun Records sides), whilst "Hi Ho Silver" is a higher-wattage shouter covering the same territory that Spencer explored with the band (sans Green) on "Someone's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked in Tonight," only with a little more subtlety and grace; and his tribute to Buddy Holly, "Buddy's Song," even outdoes the classic Joe Meek/Mike Berry "Tribute to Buddy Holly" as a memorial to the late rock & roll star -- and it was always too good and sincere to be mistaken for part of any oldies revival. "Jewel Eyed Judy" and "Earl Gray" are two superb showcases for Danny Kirwan, the former as a vocalist and player and the latter as a composer and guitarist in tandem with Spencer, in what was a pretty good successor to the Green-era instrumental hit "Albatross." "One Together" shows off a harmony-vocal side to this band that was something new in 1970, on one of the prettiest tunes they ever had to work with. And Kirwan gets the spotlight once again as a guitarist on the hard-rocking "Tell Me All the Things You Do." The album ends with the lyrical, relaxed McCartney-esque folky pop of "Mission Bell," which seemed to point the way toward their future direction. None of this may be as intense as the music they cut with Peter Green running the show, but in its relaxed way Kiln House represents the same virtuoso blues-rock outfit having a little fun while making a record -- think of it as roughly Fleetwood Mac's equivalent to the Rolling Stones' Between the Buttons.

STATION MAN

Station Man
I've been waiting
Can you tell me
When we're leaving

Midnight train
Now is leaving

Engine screaming

ah, ah
ah, ah
ah, ah
ah, ah

Where I'm going I don't know
But you tell me I must go
When we're leaving I don't know
But you tell me now

I see it's coming
And bringing something
This train of lovin'
I see it's comin'
I feel it's runnin'
This train of lovin'
From ages past

Station Man
I've been waiting
Can you tell me
When we're leaving


BLOOD ON THE FLOOR

Well goodbye world
It's sad but true
Got a date with the hangman
I have to leave you
I shot my Darlin'
Three times of more
The reason I'm goin'
Is blood on the floor

The nights are so lonely
The days are so long
I'm in the jailhouse
Cause they say I've done wrong
I don't say I'm sorry
I just say I'm sore
The reason I'm goin'
Is blood on the floor (blood on the floor)

Well I came home one night
She were lyin',
With her legs around
Another mans bod
She saw me, stared laughin'
But she cried, when she saw my gun

Goodbye world
I guess we must part
They're taking my life
Cause I shot my sweetheart
I don't say I'm sorry
I just say I'm sore
The reason I'm goin'
Is blood on the floor
Oh the reason I'm goin'
Is blood on the floor
Oh the reason I'm goin'
Is the blood on the floor

JEWEL EYED JUDY

Moonshine time
Thoughts of you
Spinning round
As thoughts do
I just wondered if
Your eyes still shine
As they did
When you were mine

I can see
In a dream
Thougts so clear
And jewels that gleam
Would your eyes
Still sparkle then
If we were, once again

Jewel eyed Judy please come home
Jewel eyed Judy don't leave me alone
Jewel eyed Judy please come home
Jewel eyed Judy don't leave me alone

Lovely Judy
Can you see
Where it is
You're meant to be
Where you lay
Your head tonight
May the stars
Find your light
So am I
Sitting here
Moonlight glistens
On my tears
Is this all
That we could find
Chains of memories
Left behind

Jewel eyed Judy please come home
Jewel eyed Judy don't leave me alone
Jewel eyed Judy please come home
Jewel eyed Judy don't leave me alone


BUDDY'S SONG

Blue blue days, and long black nights
Lonesome tears you're gonna cry for me
And little baby
You'd better start baby
And leave

Think it over before you leave
I got the love - that kind you need
And little baby
You'd better start baby
And leave

I'll rave on with the things you say
You say you're gonna leave but that'll be the day
Maybe baby, you don't know
I left Peggy Sue, a long time ago

She's the girl on my mind
Everyday through all the time
And little baby
You'd better start baby
And leave

[solo]

I'll rave on with those things you say
You say you're gonna leave but that'll be the day
Maybe baby, you don't know
I left Peggy Sue, a long time ago

She's the girl on my mind
Everyday through all the time
And little baby
You'd better start baby
And leave

And little baby
You'd better start baby
And leave

ONE TOGETHER

How can my heart be filled with doubts of you
When you can fill me with a love that's true
But I can't help but sigh,
And sometimes wonder why
What can I do
I want to see you more and more each day
I really need you, you're my only way
You say it's alright now
But still I wonder how, what can I say

I've dreamed a thousand dreams
And cried so many tears
Cause when you're not in my heart it seems
Like I've wasted all my years

Someday together we will fly to the sun
And then we'll think of all the things we've done
Everyone will smile, happy all the while
Now that we're one

I've dreamed a thousand dreams
And cried so many tears
When you're not in my heart it seems
Like I've wasted all my years

Someday together we will fly to the sun
And then we'll think of all the things we've done
Everyone will smile, happy all the while
Now that we're one


TELL ME ALL THE THINGS YOU DO

Tell me
Tell me all the things you do
I'll tell you
Tell you all the things I do

Tell me
Tell me all the things you do
I'll tell you
Tell you all the things I do


MISSION BELL

Say you love me
Say those three words and
I will give my love to you

My love is higher than a mission bell (how deep?)
Deeper than a wishing well (how strong?)
Stronger than a magic spell
My love, for you
It's wider than the widest sea (how long?)
Longer than a memory (How sweet?)
Sweeter than a honey tree
My love, uhmmm, for you

Give me your heart of gold
Your heavenly magic touch
To cherish have and hold
I need your love so much

Say you love me
Say those three words and
I will give my love to you

My love is warmer than a day in spring (how bright?)
Brighter than a diamond ring (how great?)
Greater than a mighty king
My love, for you
Is taller than the tallest tree (how soft?)
Softer than a summer breeze
Oh I ask you please
Give your love, your love
Sweet love to me

how high (ummm)
how deep (ummm)
how strong (ummm)
how wide (ummm)
how long (ummm)
