I think it should represent different aspects of their other albums... A warm and light and fun guitar track, a driving guitar solo-oriented thing featuring the three contributing singers, a quirky Lindsey song (wouldn't be complete without it) a mystical Stevie song about love and birds and mythical creatures, and a rock-solid Chris song with a great rhythm section. Throw in some funky Tango-inspired tracks and some flowing creativity, and it really could be a great showcase...
I also think it would be nice to have a popular, well-played single. And if it sounds too "mellow classic rock" it will go nowhere, so if chart success is an objective, then an 80's inspired sound has to happen, possibly with Stevie on vocals, considering she has had the most exposure to young people the last few years. If not, then all three of them (preferably).

One thing I know is that I really don't want to hear something like SYW, or something with lot of songs with a very fast acoustic guitar. PLEASE, NO!!!!!!!!
With Chris on board, that Must change. But, we won't hear something like Mirage or Tango, and not like Rumours or Tusk, for sure. I don't want songs like the EP ones, so it's hard to say...but maybe an album with an "old" sound would be great! Regards! |

I love both the Twister version and the 24K version.

What I really wouldn't want to hear from him is more middle of the road gutless dreck like his EP and recent soundtrack contributions. Say what you will about Lindsey's fast-acoustic songs, but they have artistic teeth to them.

That being said, there are exceptions where I think Lindsey has really exceeded as a producer. The cold metallic sheen he implements on songs such as Bel Air Rain and Rock Away Blind is what makes those songs utterly sparkle out of speakers. Any sort of warmth in the production of those songs would have blunted that effect. Lindsey can also pull off warmth in production when he wants to. Songs like Down On Rodeo and Destiny Rules are beautiful examples.

Not too many recording studios still using tape. So, maybe they should use Dave Grohl's studio to record their next album (since he's got the old Neve mixing board that was at Sound City).

Trouble and Italian Summer are middle of the road poppy adult contemporary gutless dreck. song like Sad Angel from *his* EP is light years better song than these; it doesn't even compare.

The right producer might be able to put what Fleetwood Mac actually is (and was) into perspective a bit more than what the 5 might be able to do on their own. Years and years of drama, solo albums, hiatuses, and egos might still be a fog they will have to maneuver through. Now who that would be I don't know. I honestly think Rick Rubin would be the best choice in helping them really deliver something amazing but also keep them going in a good direction without letting certain members overly indulge.

Lindsey is just very versatile and not easily pinned down to style, seems to like and is interested in many different musical styles, and can go in any of the several very different musical directions. when i first started listening to his music, being pulled in by perfect warm melodic pop of Second Hand News, these many different musical directions was something completely frustrating to me. how can the same guy write Rodeo, Steal Your Heart Away, Bleed to Love Her, Red Rover, Gift of Screws, Time Precious Time, Tusk, Go Your Own Way, Trouble, Second Hand News, and Say Goodbye? some of those songs i absolutely adore, while others i absolutely despise. and they definitely don't nearly fit in the same musical genre.

this difference in sound and warmth actually makes sense, considering the producer of White Album is Keith Olsen. like you, i'm just describing what i'm hearing and feeling when hearing it and would love to hear opinions of people with at least some handle on music production.
