Realistically.....What Can We Expect From Christine?

[FuzzyPlum]

If she's going to do anything then it would need to be done very soon (while Lindsey is releasing/touring his new record ahead of the next FM tour). I don't think Christine has it in her to be the prime driver behind a blues record but if Mick wanted to do something with Rick then I'm sure he could push things through with Christine also involved.

I don't see her realistically doing anything more after a 2 year world tour. She is looking quite frail.

Edit: I'm not sure frail is quite the right term, but certainly her best performing days are long, long gone.

I disagree. I think she could easily do a blues album. It's not like blues artists are known for their youth. Buddy Guy is 81, John Mayall is 83, B.B. King was in his late '80s before he retired, and Sippie Wallace played until she was nearly 88, so if she stays healthy, I see no reason why she couldn't do one, especially with Mick, Rick, and John.

I agree....in fact, John is the one who has said he can't see himself doing this past 75.....not sure if that was music in general, or just Fleetwood Mac in particular.
That said, I bet if Chris (and Mick!) asked, he would say yes!
I just worry that, after 18-24 months on the road, Lindsey might push for a second B/M album....and Chris will give in to that!

I hope they do another Buckingham/McVie album. Her voice has sounded so much better as the tour has gone on. And she sounds fantastic on the album.

Me too, hoping for another BM album. They clearly enjoy this so much more(if lacking the huge paycheck that FM is). Bring it!

Agreed, Doll!
