Carry on...
One would be hard-pressed to call her an idiot with any degree of validity.

Lindsey was the creative soul of FM and she was right there alongside him. I doubt his firing is something she took lightly or wanted. But she chose to go the route of least resistance rather than fight for him. Was this spineless? Possibly. Though I see her actions as more calculated and money-motivated. Is this despicable? Well, Fleetwood and the McVies are capable of that (consider Bob Welch RRHOF). But whether we like her decisions or not, Christine is her own woman.

LOL you know what? you're right. Let me correct that statement!

My favorite album of hers is:

"In the meantime...I'll be a spineless, calculating, money-driven, shallow, back-stabbing human being, while I hop on the bus that will run over a band member that bent over backwards for me. But hey, time marches on"

There, much better!

Though its small numbers, I'm pleasantly surprised by how even the vote is.
The Christine Perfect Album for me all the way... that album is just so sexy.

Save that energy for the spineless, calculating, money-driven, shallow, back-stabbing human being that deserves it.

But seriously, glad you like ITM. Didn't know you liked her solo work.

In all seriousness, my vote would actually go for the Christine Perfect album, love it!

I like ITM, however I remember preferring some of this “acoustic” bonus tracks better than the album version. I think there was one for “friend”. We’re those iTunes bonus tracks? I don’t remember.

When it comes to Christine, simplest is best.
