Absolutely NOT!! It was "a fresh new beginning" for Fleetwood Mac. That they held up the album to include Christine's material changed the entire feel of the album. It's apparent from the topics of Christine's lyrics that she was "done" with Fleetwood Mac, but the band itself was ready to head down a new path. Which was ultimately aborted by Mick & John after the one album. Had they carried on with that lineup, I think brighter days would've ensued upon release of the next album. But, alas, Mick & John decided to take the easy road and go for "nostalgia" rather than forge new territory.
