Don't let the reviews spoil the good music; this album is good. Not the best Fleetwood Mac album, by any means, but it's good music. Something you can always expect if Fleetwood Mac's involved.
Absolutely. I enjoy it more every time I listen to it. Especially Winds of Change, and Talkin' To My Heart. Even if a bit disjointed, there's still some fine stuff on Time.

I like some of the songs:
All Over Again (the only song that both sounds good and reaches me emotionally)
Sooner or Later (though it sounds like BTM to me)
Dreaming the Dream
I Do
I Wonder Why
Winds of Change
Blow by Blow (just okay, but not awful)

I really dislike these:
Hollywood (the harmonies are too sweet for me, and the song is too long IMO)
Nights in Estoril
I Got It In For You
These Strange Times
Talking to My Heart (painful)

I know I'm in the minority once again, but to me the problem with Time is not the disjointedness of the songs, but that the songs don't play to the artists' strengths. I prefer Billy when his songs are more energetic. I prefer Chris when her songs have more of a bluesy piano sound.

Exactually that is it, that´s what makes the board interesting. Everyone´s opinion. Not everybody likes the same FM songs. When you would make a alltime top 100, you should be suprised.

I´m pretty sure,

Actually, I didn't buy the shirt...because it was white; I ended up buying the black t-shirt with the cover of the Penguin album instead. Wish I would've made the other choice, now, though.

The only song title I remember of the ones that weren't on the album was yet another recording of Billy Burnette's "The Bigger The Love". JEEZ, he'd recorded it on two separate solo albums, played guitar & background vocals on the John McVie's Gotta Band album, then for the aborted album that became Time. I think that is why I remember it and not the others.

I wonder if we can track down someone who did get that shirt, chili.
I'd be interested in seeing the original album artwork (or is it the same as what they used for 'Time?'), and seeing the original tracklist.

Anyone? John? David?
Please feel free to speak up!

The artwork was a pen & ink drawing of the band members' heads. (which, as it turned out, Dave Mason, John McVie & Mick Fleetwood ended up looking almost like triplets!!! )

I have the shirt with the band members' heads on it, but, it just lists their names on the back. The only other shirt that I recall (and have) is the one with Mick's arm banging a drum that lists all of their albums and says Coming Soon...Another Link In The Chain.

Still, the way I always understood it, Christine was still considered a member of the band. Mick always mentioned that she was still a member of the group, but she retired from the road.
