The (Potential) New Album Thread

[secret love]

Hello everybody

I think that we need a dedicated Fleetwood Mac new swansong album thread.

1. What would you call the new album? My opinion is they should call it "Legacy"
2. What songs would you choose from the three songwriters' vaults?
3. Do you have any information like song titles left over from BuckVie? Care to share if you do?
4. Has anyone else heard of My Mother's Rings? It is a mooted new Stevie song written in memory of Barbara Nicks her mother. I read about it in a snippet on Fleetwood Mac News in 2013. It was in the comments section on an article by a poster who claimed to have inside information.

I think Stevie should contribute Space Needle, Julia and Joan of Arc as suggested by a different Ledgie in a Stevie thread. Castaway and My Mother's Rings should also be included and that would bring her to five "new" songs which would be the same as Tusk. Lindsey could contribute 8 newbies and Christine 7 and then we would have a brand new double album.

Love the part where she says "I haven't done this one so I may f-ck up once" The piano on the above song is stellar in my opinion. If that's Stevie then she should play keys on that song live and in studio if Fleetwood Mac release it.

There was already a Fleetwood Mac tribute album endorsed by the band called Legacy ..they have to be able to come up with something more original than that.

Unless there was news that I'm not aware of, there is not going to be a new album. This thread is misleading.

1. Over And Done.

2. I don't want any stinking vault songs.

3.
If you're meaning use something that was left over
from Buckingham McVie on the new album, I'd say
that's a horrible idea. There's a reason songs are
culled.

New songs are key! And they'd better be more
listenable than what was on Buckingham McVie.

I've tried my best to hear what you guys like about
Buckingham McVie. And I just don't get it. I do admire
them for trying though. Unlike that person who wears
50 lbs of chiffon.

Aaaaaarrrrgggghhhhhhhhh
Just what I need... a misleading click-bait thread title. I really woke up excited hoping to find some new announcement about a brand new album.

Have you been hiding under a rock for the past 15 years? Stevie doesn't want to do another album with Fleetwood Mac. There never will be another Fleetwood Mac album. There have been countless threads on here going over and over and around in circles discussing this constantly. I think almost everyone now has faced up to that fact. :shocked:

[HomerMcvie]

Yeah, it's NEVER going to happen. Stevie can't be bothered. I hope her legacy - is that she's what made them so popular, but in the end, killed their creativity, by sticking her toes in the mud, and refusing to let them move forward.

She's the worst thing that ever happened to them.

[Macfan4life]

The name of the album should be "Dream on silly dreamer" because I don't see it happening and the Eagles already have used the name Hell Freezes Over.

There is a reason many vault songs stay in the vault. Look at the creativity on Buckingham/McVie NO VAULT SONGS THERE

If you were to make a new album it should be fresh and new

[jbrownsjr]

I'll take another BuckVie Album. Still listen to it. It really sounds fresh after more than a 1/2 year.

[nicepace]

I think the original poster was simply engaging in a little harmless fantasy.

I agree with those who would prefer another BuckVie album over another FM album. I think it's actually much more likely that we will see that than another FM record.

IF (and this is a big IF) Stevie engages into any sort of FM album project, it has to be because she wants to. Because she really feels it's the right time to do it and because she still has something to offer. If that's the case, I'd love for a last FM album. :woohoo:

If she's gonna start complaining about Lindsey, Lindsey, Lindsey, bring BuckVie 2 on! :]:woohoo:

[LB Freakazoid]

Album title?
They Played On...

If she put as much effort into writing as she does talking about herself, we'd have another Stevie solo album and 2 FMac albums. :lol:

Or...

THEN PLAYED OUT.

“Big MAC” ain’t happening anymore (except in tours) but LB-CM could easily do another’s album. They’ve already floated the idea to the public, too. That’s what I’m really hoping for.

That would be the perfect title for their farewell album! :o

I think a second BuckVie album would depend on the length of the FM tour. Only Stevie and Mick want a two years tour. I’m sure Lindsey and Christine want it to be over soon so they maybe have a chance of a second album.

I hope the latter is how it plays out. Stevie and Mick love being in the spotlight, over being creative.

I'd give anything for another BV album and tour. They were clearly so happy and relaxed during this last project. THAT'S how your career should end!

It's so clear they only are doing this because of the money.

I'm so tired of that crap. Bring on BuckVie!! Let Stevie and Mick do selfie museums and such. They love themselves, just ask them.

Absolutely.

They are both drama queens, wanting the spotlight more than anything else.

BuckVie to the end!!!!!:angel:

I give Mick Credit. He's been doing the blues band and it's quite good. They have a live album that's pretty decent.

It is a great LIVE album. If we can't get the 5 together for a final album I will take the side projects and the reissues........Its better then NO new music.

Yeah, I liked it a lot. Great music.

I think that after so many failed attempts to woo Stevie, Lindsey finally gave up on the idea of a new FM album and started enjoying his music and his project with Christine. Like you said, he was happy and relaxed at the end, and he was sad to see it coming to an end. Now he wants more BuckVie and he probably can't wait for the FM tour to end, before it even started! :D


It's so clear they only are doing this because of the money.

Yes, all of them are doing it for the money, except maybe John and Christine.

Stevie and Mick have loved themselved their whole lives. They were always connected by their self adoration. Selfie museums! Haha! :laugh::laugh:

[aleuzzi]

Oh, they love the money as much as the rest of them. Christine mentions shopping or “retail therapy” in a lot of interviews, and as someone who doesn’t have songwriting royalties coming in, John embraces the live tours. But you’re right: they don’t seem as nakedly motivated to make big money as Mick or Stevie. Or maybe they’re just better at hiding that?

Of the five, I got the impression Lindsey was the least money-motivated of all them but that he is using his “big machine” money to finance his “little machine” projects.

She used to stay up to all hours of the morning taking pictures of herself! LOL LOL :]:]:]:laugh:

That is hilarious.

With Tom Petty's passing I've got two scenarios going through my head...

Tom's death makes Stevie reflect on the finite-ness of life and draws her towards making a last Fleetwood Mac album.

Stevie makes an album with The Heartbreakers- a tribute to her great friend and thus fulfilling her long wish to be a Heartbreaker.

Quite probably neither, but I'm wondering which is more likely at this moment in time???

I see a Fleetwood Mac album before any kind of heartbreakers tribute release.

As you said, none of them will probably happen, but if I have to choose one, definitely the album with The Heartbreakers... if they ever want to make a tribute album with her. :D

I don't think any life changing situation (not even with someone from FM) will make her go back to the studio to make a final album. Besides, I don't think she will be asked again once this tour is over. :nod:
