Oh, yeah, I wonder what the hell i meant there? I guess I meant that Mick and John are British, so would think it's extra stupid...

I think the idea of American's understanding Native American's and their "vibes" is what made me laugh.

I'm not one to have a Lindsey track, then a Stevie one. It's too predictable. I kinda like it off balance. Your order is pretty good, though.

You know what, it really works though. I think you'd be surprised.
Then again, maybe not... we don't tend to agree on these kinds of things!

I know on paper it seems ultra-predictable having it Lindsey/Stevie/Lindsey/Stevie, and so on... but the songs flow into each other so incredibly well, that, as you're listening to it, it doesn't feel predictable at all. At least in my very humble opinion.

I suppose running order makes a big difference to some people, but it never really affects me. I have a totally different way of listening to artists that I love. I love SYW because I love a lot of the individual tracks on it. I judge an album by how many songs I really like, rather than by how the album flows as a whole.
When I get a new album by an artist that I love, I'll listen to it a few times and pick out the songs that really stand out to me. Then I'll copy those songs, and only those songs, onto a typically 1-2 disc long compilation of my favorite tracks from that artist (or seven discs in the case of Tom Petty). In the case of Fleetwood Mac, I have compilations from Lindsey, Stevie, Christine, and Billy Burnette but I don't have a Fleetwood Mac compilation. FM songs get divided up according to the singer. Consequently, I couldn't tell you the last time I actually listened to SYW or Rumours or The Dance or any Fleetwood Mac album for that matter.
I also couldn't tell you what songs from In the Meantime I would use to replace what I consider to be the weakest songs on SYW. I bought ITMT, listened to it once, was unimpressed, and haven't given it a second chance yet.

Ironic, isn't it?

I think in the meantime is not bad, just a little too slow.

I think ITMT is AWSOME! As Mic said "It's classic Christine McVie material." Just with the british funk twist that Dan brought on it! Very funky and groovy! CHRIS IS AWSOME!
