I love the whole album, too. It's just like Christine said. It's like a book about the story of a relationship, from beginning to end. I agree with Homer about the first 6 tracks. They're fantastic! I like the next 3 tracks, but I don't think they're quite as good as the first 6. But then the last 3 tracks are terrific! So, the album finishes on a very strong note.
I haven't gotten to the point where I have to put the album away for awhile. If I don't play the album for a day or two, I find I miss it. I may even be slightly addicted to it.
In The Meantime is definitely my favorite solo album by any Fleetwood Mac member.
