They don't like to take too many risks.....same with Stevie......same old same old is there motto......
I think while this is certainly true with their live performances, it's not true with their albums. Since Stevie and Lindsey joined, none of their albums sound the same. Fleetwood Mac and Rumours are probably the most similar in sound, and even then there's a definite difference. I think, with Lindsey at the helm -- because, let's face it, even with an outside producer he would still want a lot of creative control -- that's what keeps the band from sounding same-y. He's the risk-taker. Lindsey is obviously influenced a lot by current music, and it shows through his work.
