Another point I would make is that uneven production is typical of movie soundtracks. When you think about it, you are often pulling together already-released songs that might have been produced very differently. |

That is a valid way to look at it, from a fan's perspective. But there is a lot of good music out there. A lot. If you know where to look, you can find really amazing stuff. Just because radio today only plays overproduced, formulaic crap, we tend to forget there's a lot more that we don't hear. So, if FM is going to do something with artistic integrity, as opposed to just trying to get played on the radio because it's an obsession for them, we might get a good collection of songs. Otherwise, the results will be bland and uninteresting. And that would really be a waste.

maybe also why he wanted it to be sold just as a whole, instead of individual tracks. seems it didn't help much - many Fiona's fans were listening to her track only, Norah's to hers, Ryan's to his, Lindsey's to his...

i agree that obsessing about radio play at this stage of their career is absurd. hope they are not. did David Bowie get much radio play last year? i don't think so. he still received a lot of accolades and respect for his album. FM should do whatever they want to, not whatever they think will be "commercial", both Mick and Lindsey were clear about that. the problem may be that different people in that band may want very different things, and their internal compromising to get to the sum of the parts may lead to results that may be bland or uninteresting. but i still would like to hear those, and would consider them a gift, as a fan. (and i would like all that to happen fast, so that LB can go back to doing stuff that i really would love to hear, and that he should be doing anyway, since he's not getting any younger.)

That said, I stand by my original statement: any new music by these five people should be seen for what it is--a gift. I don't think for a minute their new material will disappoint, artistically or otherwise. Yes, I am a fan. I would imagine all of us on this site are fans! |

I'd love to hear them do a proper version of this.

Those first four chords are close, if not identical to the first four chords of Remember Me.

I do agree that she probably has different expectations for Fleetwood Mac's album sales. Record execs and fans do as well. For Stevie, I'm guessing it then became a question of, "is it worth the tension and conflicts to record with Fleetwood Mac, if I can do nearly as well with my own albums and without the stress?" |

I'm only asking because I honestly don't remember her citing 'TISL' as an example in that reasoning. |

At any rate, they didn't make me think she wasn't bitter about low sales and looking to blame someone for them. Michele |
