I just listened to this fantastic album again on full volume on my sterio really enjoying all the songs. When I listened to Game of Pretend I realized how much Stevie's vocals would have added so much to this track.It would have been right up their with all their other classic three part harmonies. "Oh well"

When you just listen to this album and let it play, the album really comes to life. I'm really enjoying it.

I love how they recreate her voice in some tunes. Carnival Begin, I can hear that blend that sounds like Nicks.

It's really too bad that she wanted no part of the project. What the hell was she thinking?

That she can't write anymore except old songs form the vault, or with help. What she should have realized is Lindsey would have helped and he was into helping her songs. Even his writing was all to please her. No weird Buckingham songs on this album. She blew it!

I agree, the main reason she is not on this album is....she cannot write anymore.
Shame but that's how it is....she should have enlisted Lindsey and then used other writers.
It is such a pity she's not on this album.

I can hear her in some of the songs. Isn't that weird?

Awww, you miss her!

I don't hear her but I can hear her tambourine, which is not that weird! Maybe she stopped by Lindsey's house and added some tambourine movements.

I totally agree with this, the harmonies in the chorus remind me of Farmer's Daughter, would have been perfect with Stevie in.
