Default Thoughts on Christine's return

The time seems right for Chris's return to Fleetwood Mac.
And after hearing how great the band was playing on last year's tour, it would only make sense that a new album also becomes part of the plan.

I'm curious how people think Chris will change things musically. Although I love all of her music through Behind The Mask, most of her contributions since then have been spotty.
I found In The Meantime to be forgettable and mostly un-listenable. Same for her tracks on Time. And although I loved The Dance, I felt like her performances were the weakest in the bunch.

I'm excited for what's next and I think her addition can only add to Fleetwood Mac's momentum -- but I'm hoping she also finds a way to re-work her music and make it interesting again. It's been a long time...

This is why I think we need a new studio album. Lindsey will work his magic as he always has done with her music 1975 -1987. The live performances is a completely other question. I have seen them live since the Rumours tour and I will say that live, Christine was the one that would go off tune at times. However, their live concerts have always been "Hearing" a different band IMO.

I thought there was a general confidence and optimism in Christine's voice in her radio interviews. The fact that she seems so enthusiastic and happy about these new songs, has left me feeling confident that the songs are good. I'm really excited to see how they turn out. I also think Christine will inspire Lindsey, and give him a much needed creative boost.
