On 2009-11-25 The Footpath Cowboy, Kingston, NY United States wrote: THE DANCE, Fleetwood Mac´s reunion of their classic 70s lineup, features the band at their best since 1982´s MIRAGE. The songs are all incredibly performed, even if ´Silver Springs´ as rendered here lacks the holiday-bell piano effects of the studio version (available on THE VERY BEST OF FLEETWOOD MAC) and Lindsey Buckingham´s voice has coarsened a bit over time. The difference in the melody of ´The Chain´ is an accommodation to the changes in Buckingham´s voice. The fact that the members of this lineup of Fleetwood Mac have supported efforts to free people jailed on false charges in countries not their own makes this CD an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience.. And summed up by saying Fleetwood Mac Reunion Shows Them Back At The Top Of Their Game. Currently The Dance has an overall rating of 8 over 10.

Fleetwood Mac claimed Fleetwood Mac´s 1997 reunion could have been the kind of event that works on video--great concert, after all--but ends up not paying off in repeated listenings on CD. But The Dance, while concentrating on the group´s ´70s and ´80s triumphs, finds the Mac energy running high and impassioned. New songs like ´Temporary One´ and ´Bleed to Love Her´ are fine additions to the canon, while ´Everywhere´ and ´Say You Love Me´ both breeze along the way you remember them and manage a reinvention in the live setting. The dark side of the vision is accounted for with Lindsey Buckingham´s crazed solo ´Big Love,´ but best of all is ´Silver Springs,´ wherein Stevie Nicks tears the roof off the sucker and sets fire to the rubble. --Rickey Wright
