Kirwan, Danny

Second Chapter
Sealed 1975 Original. Cut Corner. “The First Solo Album From Fleetwood Mac Singer/Songwriter Daniel David Kirwan Has The Future Producer For Human League And Buzzcocks, Martin Rushent, Utilizing Those Skills Here, As Well As Engineering. The Sound Is Crystal Clear, And A Feather In The Cap For Rushent As Well As Kirwan. It Starts Off With An Uncharacteristic "Ram Jam City," Which Has More Lindsey Buckingham Sounds Than One Would Expect, Especially Since The Two Guitarists Come From Two Different Musical Worlds. "Odds And Ends" Is More Lighthearted, The Kind Of Music Paul Mccartney Toyed With On The White Album's "Rocky Raccoon." What Second Chapter Immediately Sets Forth Is The Importance Of Kirwan As A Pop Artist, And How, Despite Fleetwood Mac's Success After He Left, His Sounds Could Still Have Been Beneficial To That Supergroup. "Hot Summers Day" Is A Fine Example Of That, A Beautiful Song That Could Offset Buckingham's Gritty Ramblings. It Would Have Made A Nice Counterpoint As Stevie Nicks Complemented Christine Mcvie's Tunes With Her Adventures, Bringing An Important Change Of Pace To That Popular Band's Hits. Three Of The Best Songs On This Excellent Outing Are "Love Can Always Bring You Happiness," "Second Chapter," And A Sleepy And Beautiful Number Called "Silver Streams." Kirwan's Tune Is Haunting As Well With Its Lilting "All You Need Is Love To Show You The Way From Here" Chorus. As On A Follow-Up Album, He Tends To Sound A Little Like The Group America, The Vocals With That Same America Tone And Warmth. They Very Well Could Have Covered "Silver Stream" Or "Cascades," The Album's Final Track. This Material Was Crafted Right In The Middle Of America's Run Of Hits, And Maybe They Should Have Replaced Dan Peek With Dan D. Kirwan? “ – Joe Viglione, All Music Guide
