I would guess Stevie has the same problem. She works on the piano long enough to eek (and eke) out a demo and then she doesn't touch it again until the next time around. Michele Last edited by michelej1; 02-27-2009 at 10:50 PM.. |

Seriously people--do you honestly think Stevie was going to mess up her fingernails playing a stupid guitar when she had people to do that for her? Do you realize the kind of time (and money) this woman has spent on her manicures????

She used to play the cello when she was younger. Keyboards, guitar, cello, chair - is there no end to her talent? Gail |

Well to quote Bob Dylan "You can play a song with one chord"

What was the name of the band? Do any pictures exist? Do any audio clips exist? Christine is simply an amazing musician. I think she'd be able to play anything she put her mind to.

I once heard country music described as "three chords and the truth". So you don't really need a ton of chord progressions to make a hit song--a lot of the Beatles songs weren't that musically complex (although some obviously were).

of course you can. what's your point?
here's a great example of it: if you're going to be that spare with the chord structure, you better have an impeccable lyric to lean on. but stevie's lyrics are pretty hit-and-miss, and she isn't all that sonically adventurous, which leads to stagnancy. |

I think the folks who are discussing why Stevie hardly ever played an instrument live are missing an important point.
Most women in rock bands DON'T play an instrument. The majority are just vocalists. Christine is in the minority of women in bands, since she is a vocalist, a songwriter, AND a musician. As Fleetwood Mac fans, we've gotten used to the idea that women are musicians too, but we have to remember, that's the exception, not the rule in rock music. It's true that there are more women musicians in bands in recent years than there were back in the '60s and '70s when Chris got her start, but the bands like Heart and Fleetwood Mac are still in the minority. My point is, the fact that Stevie hardly ever played an instrument live is not unusual in the world of rock, and there really is no reason to expect her to, although it would have been very cool if she had.
