Is this the only recording we will ever have of the two of them singing together on a album again?

I sort of view Say You Will as the second Buckingham Nicks album. But they're not singing together any more or less than any other Fleetwood Mac album. Say You Will isn't an album of duets in any sense. There aren't any "I Don't Want to Know" moments.

No. Stevie only got involved when it was decided that Lindsey's solo album was going to become part of a Fleetwood Mac album. The album version of "Steal Your Heart Away", minus Stevie's vocals, had even been released on a Best Buy comp in 1997. So, it's essentially two projects merged into one. Buckingham Nicks was a collaboration.

Technically you're right about that! Yet his solo album was rolled into a Fleetwood Mac album sans Christine, and his production style is stamped all over Stevie's songs, so that's why I sort of consider it BuckinghamNickish.

I sometimes separate Lindsey's songs and Stevie songs. If you add their two bonus tracks, each is their own 10 track solo album! In that format I can appreciate the songs more.

To me SYW ranks as Stevie's best solo album. Lindsey can produce a track of hers like nobody else, and she glows under the light of his vision of her songs. Genius.
