“Could this have been a Fleetwood Mac album? Possibly,” he said. “There was no agenda for it to be any one thing.” (Nicks, for her part, was busy making a solo record at the time.) “But within the first week, we started to become protective about what it should be. We started saying to each other, ‘This feels like a duets album.’”
One doesn't need to look very far to find this is simply not true. When BILLBOARD ran the initial 2014 article in which Christine and Lindsey were enthusiastic about their then new work, they both said should Stevie want to participate, she would be welcomed. That sentiment was repeated in a number of articles over the next year-and-a-half.
I do like the ending of the article, where Christine urges Lindsey to be "undiplomatic."
