I don't mind all the bellyaching about Stevie...
All the blame landing at the poor woman's doorstep.. But I do hope all the negativity turns full circle when they record their last Album and she's on it. And in fact the first Single is a Stevie song. Then she should be thanked profoundly and her feet should be kissed. |

I see this thread has descended into the usual pro/anti Stevie stuff name calling. I don't hate Stevie at all and my post wasn't targeted at her - I love her solo work and am thankful for what she has contributed to the band. I just remember going to my first ever Fleetwood Mac concert - 8th June 2015, Genting Arena, Birmingham. I believe James89 was at the same one. The optimism and euphoria seeing the full band back together, and now this situation. So, so sad.

I talk online with quite a few people everyday on this board and out and I don't keep track of all of them, so I don't remember these other instances you are talking about; also I can see that you joined exactly a month ago so I don't understand why you feel targeted by the fact that I quoted you four times since then. The purpose of forums is that of confronting yourself with other people so you should expect other people to answer your posts with a different point of view. Quote:
It's impossible to make people without talent look talented at least on the long run in my honest opinion, however I guess we just have to agree to disagree on the matter. |

I can't buy into all this manufactured drama.
They're all either pushing 70 or past 70 -- I'm sure they all feel no obligation to anything or anyone at this point. And good for them. Christine did a Fleetwood Mac album w/o Stevie and Lindsey (Time), Stevie and Christine did one w/o Lindsey, Lindsey and Stevie did one w/o Christine. So I don't see this as a negative. The music on the Buckingham McVie album by all reports, is really strong and innovative. I would have hated to have another situation like Tango In The Night were the bulk of the great songs are from Lindsey and Christine, and Stevie phones in 3 lackluster songs. Her heart wasn't in it for whatever reason, so -- so be it. It's probably a healthier project when all three singers start and build the album together from the ground up; rather than Stevie walk in to an almost completed album. She just did two of what I consider to be some of the strongest albums of her entire career. Maybe she didn't have enough strong songs to offer; or maybe she just didn't want to obligate herself to studio time and sacrifice the fun of a tour. But really, who cares? When you're their age, I'm not sure you really belabor drama. You do what you want when you want it -- and it's their gig, not ours, so I'm not going to judge. Just happy that Lindsey is steering the ship again and releasing more new music. |

I wish Buckingham's vision of a Mac double album had come to fruition. What a great way to go out.
As it is, yes they put this out as a duets album but its only 10 songs. I think they've said they had a lot more in the works. My hope is that they pushed this out as a duets album because they both really wanted to get the music out, but that the additional songs could form the basis of a Mac album once Nicks tires of her solo phase (Nicks always tires of one then goes back to the other, bouncing from band to solo and back again and again). |

I don't have an issue with Stevie not participating, I just have an issue with them not calling it what it really is, because it's much more of a Fleetwood Mac album than Say You Will.

Really, it was just Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, Fleetwood Mac In Chicago (which wasn't intended for release), the Boston Tea Party set, Live In Boston, and EP.
