If you like Christine, you should. She has some great songs on Time.

By the way I voted of course. The best example to me is Bekka's backing vocals in Heart To Call Home on the Bekka and Billy album.

Even though Chris is my favorite, by far, Bekka is definitely the most trained singer they've ever had.
Even though I can't stand Dave Mason, I love Blow by Blow, just for Bekka's awesome vocals!

Agreed. She totally makes that song.

This is so very true.

On Time, I always felt the band should have let Christine do her solo album and Billy and Bekka could've forged ahead doing their own, distinct thing.

Sorry Dave Mason--you don't fit anywhere in my "should have" fantasies.

That's fine. I'm not a Stevie fan and I don't go posting negativity in her forum. That's all I'm saying.

I've not voted in the poll, but I do want to say to Meowi, please do listen to Time. Homer encouraged me to and I'm glad I did. I don't enjoy Bekka's voice much (don't anyone please take offence at that, chances are you don't like half the musicians I do) but Christine outshines even her Tango songs on there. Nights in Estoril is in my top 5 favourite songs by Chris. I do agree that Bekka has the most trained voice, I just don't particularly like it. Like Chris said though, listen to Time even if it's just to say you don't like it

The LAST thing Bekka did was "pretend she is Stevie Nicks"...she brought her own whole new thing to Fleetwood Mac.

The sad thing is that too many people in the audience had chiffon colored blinders & earplugs on to notice.

Open minds, people, open minds.
