The song list? Sounds very snarky. I can't wait to hear Christine get bitchy.

Speaking of Dr. Plastic...the only time I've ever thought that about Christine was between "Time" and "The Dance". Look at the pictures from the "Time" album liners and then try to convince me otherwise. As much as I love and worship Christine, it's obvious she got a little touched up or just lost a lot of weight in those 2 years.
Agree, she lost weight after Time! Her Dance concert days, she looked slender.

I guess my point is that the Stevie in the photos in the Rumours reissue looks nothing to me like current Stevie, and especially not TITN Stevie.

It seems that girls like Stevie, Cher, Madonna and Christine enjoy dramatic image changes. Either way, each time it's probably 90% the work of the PR machine.

So where are these press release photos people keep talking about? The only recent photos I remember seeing are of her in front of a mic in a studio, and seeing her with I believe two other men. Are these the pics you guys are talking about?

Oh, don't get me wrong, I think she still looks beautiful. I was surprised, though... I had to do a double take. Other than on the Dance cover, I've never seen her at that angle. I looked at the cover photo and the photo that was on the front page of connection records' website, and it looked more like her.

Here's a side-by-side comparison I did of the two photos:

Talking Happy day!

I know I'm late, but I'm so excited on finding out finally what the songs are and of course, the album cover!!

I don't think that's her on the cover, though I won't be surprised if it is. The songs are angry after all. Calumny is a synonym to slander. Ouch! Will this be like Lindsey's Wrong I wonder.

I've never seen a pic of Chris where she was grinning like that. She just always seemed to . . .cool to break out into a grin like that. Maybe that's why it doesn't look like her??????

Other then that woman not looking much like Christine, I say it's an AMAZING cover, with Christine in the garden. And even better are those song titles in the songlist. They sound amazing. Obviously I can' tell how good a song is from the title, but as of now I have a feeling Liar is going to rock and will be the best song. of course in 2 months I'll be hear saying how I like all the songs but that Liar song sucks

I don't know, I tend to think Stevie & Christine look the way one might expect the ladies on the back cover of 'Rumours' to look, 30 years hence.

It's all the natural progression of life... we experiment with different hairstyles, fashion fads come and go, etc., etc.

Personally though, I can't wait to see what all of the hip-hoppers think when they look back at their clothes, 30-40 years from now.
Baggy trousers with the crotch to their knees... band-aids on their cheeks... "bling-bling" everywhere you look... "dew-rags" on their heads, with a baseball cap over top of that.... I can hear it now: "Grandpa, what were you THINKING?!?"

I like the pic and here's why. I have always thought of Christine as elegant, even when she had the bottle of wine on her B3 Hammond with a cig in her hand on stage. (Joni Mitchell is the only other person I've seen smoke on stage)

The album cover seems like a concept to me. "In the Meantime" her off in England writing songs. In her garden! LOL

Remember the Christine McVie cover with her on the hilltop with the piano with the red scarf. Very 80's brushed as well.

Oh, and I love 12 tracks! Not too many, and no too little.


Enjoy it!
Keith Richards and Ron Wood both smoke like none other while on stage.

No, it doesn't look like her because they airbrushed out her jowls and lifted her cheekbones (see pic). Heck, I look more like Christine than the woman in that album cover, and I'm a guy!

The website said June 6th was the release date.

What's the U.S. release date?
