So my view is that it's not necessarily a bad or troubling sign that she hasn't discussed Fleetwood Mac's album. She's been mum regarding both projects.

She has, but the others haven't. So there's no reason for her to not acknowledge that "her band" is recording and that she won't be with them right now, but will maybe next year after the tour. If you read the new Billboard interview with Lindsey and Christine, they seem to just be under the assumption that she will join them eventually. It doesn't sound like there's a mutual agreement in place about it. I'm sure they have good reason to assume that though. At the moment it doesn't sound like they really know when they're going to go back and finish the album and that the timing of it depends on how much interest they receive about it.

He says they've been there for 8 weeks altogether, him and Christine, and the goal has been to get Chris up to speed and back on track with writing and recording with him/FM and that's what they've done. So it makes sense-- at least to me-- that Stevie wasn't there. It was more like, you guys go to the Village Recorder and get Christine all spooled up and I'll be in Nashville with Dave getting myself and MY music spooled up and at some point when we all come back into the studio together as FLEETWOOD MAC we will all work together to create a FM album". It doesn't sound like the goal in LA was to create a FM album at all, but to help Chris blow the dust off and be ready when they DO go in to put together an album. At least that's my take. YMMV

The new billboard interview sheds some more light on that that basically refutes much of this theory. They clearly have been in the studio to record an album. They've laid down the tracks for 8 songs (not including Lindsey's old songs), done overdubs and even have parts written for Stevie to sing on all of the songs "eventually". Lindsey also said that they're about 75% done with what they've been working on. They're not going to come back at a later date to start over. Recording of a new FM album is well underway, that we can be sure of.

Also nothing that's been said by Lindsey, Christine or Mick would lead us to believe that Stevie's absence is mutually agreed. As I mentioned in the above post, Christine's quote in the new interview makes it sound, as have previous interviews, that they're just under the assumption that Stevie will join them at some point and that they don't seem to really know when they're going to get back at it.

After reading the most recent article- and maybe it's the pic too- I get the feeling Lindsey is not happy. I have no real objective reason for feeling this way whatsoever and hope I'm totally wrong- but I think Mike V could be on to something.

I think it goes back to what I and others said early on when the first article with Chris and Lindsey came out-- it's a message from the band to Stevie. They are putting it out there that they are ready, willing and able to do another album and it's all good-- so where's Stevie? Just like with the EP. "If this doesn't happen, don't blame us." Maybe it's also towards Stevie's managers.. maybe they're as much/more of a problem than her personally. Who knows.

ok I don't know why but some of these titles make me a bit… nervous. I'm A Jazz Man, Family Party, On With The Show.

Carnival Begin could go either way and Up Your Speed sounds like just a euphemism for Up Your A** but maybe that's just me..

I edited the post; I haven't heard of either remix, but defer to those more knowledgeable about LB's songs!

Well we knew Lindsey was a one-man band, but who knew he was a jazz band?!

This gave me a good laugh. Yes some of the titles are somewhat concerning

Still I'm sure it'll all work out ok in the end

And "clamor" is the hope that a little pressure from outside the band might achieve what the band members aren't having much progress in doing themselves. Michele

How I Feel is ho hum too. I just take Up Your Speed as acceleration. Speed is so different from the "up your" retort they my mind didn't 't go there. Michele
