If you haven't bought this album, you should. It's got a lot of good songs on it that sound like Fleetwood Mac. I pulled this out the other day and have been listening to it since. It's a good album. Got A Hold On Me, The Challenge, Love Will Show How and Ask Anybody... are infectious. Can't quit listening to it.

I agree. Lots of subtle gems on this LP. Its a good listen at work or just passing time.

You can definitely hear where a lot of FM sound comes from.

I agree too, I have the vinyl and it's a very good, easy listening album! Got a hold on me, Love will show us how, Who's dreaming this dream and So excited are my fav songs in it!

I really like about half of the album a lot. The other half seems like a missed opportunity for growth and exploration.

To my ears, the best tunes on it are "One in a Million," "Smile I Live For," "Got a Hold on Me," "Ask Anybody," and "So Excited." "One in a Million" in particular really sparks.

That's an impressive number for any solo album.

The two verses on "Love Will Show Us How" are pleasing, but the chorus doesn't work for me.

The rest is just bland easy-listening.

I DO think In the Meantime is, on a whole, a far superior bunch of songs.

The Challenge is a great song, and very Fleetwood Mac. Sorta reminds me of As Long As You Follow...

I do like the álbum, though I expected a bit more from Miss Christine. Yes it sounds very Fleetwood Mac and I do like that. But compared to In The Meantime, I found this last álbum more interesting.

Anyway yes it is worth it, you must include it in your collection.
