"I'm not making a hit record here, I'm making a GREAT record"
Direct quote: "I'm not making a hit record here, I'm making a GREAT record" HMMMM And Fleetwood Mac has to make a hit record? They can't make a GREAT record that's not a hit, with your help, Stevie? :sorry: |

I have been shaking my head for 40 years with Stevie and her comments on recording and everything else. I even met her in 1994 and asked her about recording and other stuff and she was so vague about everything in her responses........Whatever... I never thought I would get all these years out of her and the band so I'm cool. |

I don't see anything she said as wrong. There is nothing wrong with wanting to make a great record and not really care if it's a "hit" record. She's 69 years old I can't imagine being in my 60's and still worrying about whether my new album is going to be a hit or even have hits on it. She's at the point in her career where she's already had several hit albums (with FM or solo) she's probably reached that point where she doesn't care if what she does is a "hit".

AAhhhhhhhh! The great debate rages on. I have been a FM/Stevie fan since 1975. But when she kept dodging the question about going into the studio to do a new FM album after Chris came back, I started to lose some of my obsession with her. I was very frustrated. You say one thing and then say another. You want Chris back. She comes back, but you still want to just tour and rake in the money. I don't know, I just was very disappointed in the thought of maybe one last Fleetwood Mac album. Also her relationship with Lindsey drives me crazy too. You worked it out and your great friends, then you really don't like him at all. Which is it? Stick to one for crying out loud!

It's funny, having been a fan since 13, I'm 54 now, I have noticed that I am now fine with whatever direction she takes and welcome any surprises.

Ditto....Ditto...Ditto. Same...been a fan since 1975 and one thing you can count on is SOMETHING! |
I'm trying to let up on her and cut her some slack. Yes, this is me.. nobody hi-jacked my login..
Her need for attention also gave her a pretty amazing career. Is she full of crap? Yes. Can she keep track of her lies? No. But yet, I still love the girl. I hope she makes a solo album with Jimmy Iovine. Puts on Bella Donna....... |

It seems like post-2000, for her to feel this way ("I'm not making a hit record but a great record"), she needs to be in a creative partnership with someone she trusts who feels that way him/herself. For a while it was Dave Stewart but reportedly they had some kind of falling out. Before that it was Sheryl Crow. I hope she finds another collaborator who believes in making music for its own sake so that we get more new songs from her!
