Some fans seem to feel it unworthy of the Mac name... which I think is a bit of a myopic view.

I really can't get with that. I think SYW is superb, and very much a Mac album. They've always been separate people, with separate songs. I know they used to "work together" more, but IMO, it still often sounded like 3 different people with 3 different sensibilities. Which I think is irreplaceable, irreplicable, and the driving strength of this band. As far as Christine goes, I miss a few of her songs, but what i really miss is mainly her playing on Stevie's and Lindsey's songs, and her voice on those. I really can't get behind the whole "it's not a mac album without chris" thing. And even if that were "true", it's a hellavu album anyway, so i don't care.
