New interview: "Rumours Has It..."

“I’m waiting to hear when we’re going to finish it, which I suspect will be April. Everybody has different things going on. But my feet are firmly planted in this record at the moment, because quite a lot of the songs are mine!”

“Once the album is ready, McVie says the band will embark on another tour. “Depending on how decrepit we feel, it may not be the last. We’re all fit, so we think we can do another tour and put a record out – and people seem to love us, so we appreciate that.”

Thanks for posting. Its out of this world to hear Christine talk about her love of making new music and hitting the road more than one more time. She has such a zest for life now.
I love the fact she is sitting next to a trophy from the last tour with all kinds of amazing facts. I just wish we could see the beginning of the gross tour numbers. You know its out of this world. I like how she acknowledges the love from the fans too.

I like this bit:

McVie and Fleetwood Mac achieved a virtually unparalleled level of acclaim and adoration with Rumours, but the road to success wasn’t always easy. “There weren’t that many women around back then [the 60s and early 70s]. It was a very male-oriented industry. I wasn’t in the pop industry at that time – I was playing in a blues band, so that was even more unusual.”

I have always thought that Christine is a real musical pioneer, because she was one of a very few women at the time who wrote songs, sang songs, and played an instrument, in a mixed gender band, on an equal footing with the guys in the band. It makes me happy to see Christine herself refer to this pioneering role.

And she had the personality that allowed another women to come join the band. If not for that, Buckingham/Nicks might be still waiting tables and Fleetwood Mac would be known as a blues band from England.
