Like that disc, Just Tell Me That You Want Me - pegged, one presumes, to a promised 2013 tour by its honorees - demonstrates the impressive breadth of Poster’s contact list. He’s the guy who selects the songs that soundtrack Boardwalk Empire and movies by Wes Anderson and Martin Scorsese he also oversaw last year’s Rave on Buddy Holly, which found Paul McCartney, the Black Keys, and Cee Lo Green toasting the rock pioneer in time for what would’ve been Holly’s 75th birthday.
Those questions swirl like Stevie Nicks’ windblown shawl around Just Tell Me That You Want Me, a new 19-track Fleetwood tribute album assembled by big-shot Hollywood music supervisor Randall Poster. Does our intimate knowledge of Fleetwood Mac’s internecine drama enrich our experience of the band’s music? Or does the excellence of that music endow that drama with the weight of real meaning?
