New Cd Listing?
 

I was recently on Pause and Play website and was skimming through the future release section and it listed Christine for a 2010? release. Does anyone have any news on a possible new cd?

Oh wow. :shocked: I'm interested to know now too!

There was some buzz last year, about a Chris CD coming out, and it turned out to be nothing. While I certainly HOPE it's true, I sincerely doubt it is. The sales of ITM were pretty dismal, and I doubt she puts out another CD. I pray that I'm wrong.

You're always wrong.. which means NEW CD!!!!!! YAY!!! hahaha;)

That's interesting. Last time I saw something like this, it was a Lindsey CD, Live on Air, or something? Here's hoping play.com have got it right!

That website has had a new Christine McVie album listed for about a year. There was a thread about it on this board at the time. Apparently, the Pause and Play people got their "info" from a completely baseless rumour on THIS board.

In other words, there is absolutely no evidence that Chris is making a new record ... it's really annoying that Pause and Play still has it listed.

By the way, I doubt that Chris would base a decision about making a new record on how well 'In the Meantime' did. She didn't make that record because she needed money. She made it because she wanted to, because she had creative impulses that needed expression. She obviously didn't care enough about record sales to do much promotion.

It's precisely because of the reasons you mention that I still believe she's got one more project in her. Anything, anything, anything. Just her at the friggin' piano playing and singing. Come on!

A whle ago Martin Wyatt said something about "reworking" ITM whatever that means.

I doubt if she'll do any new material soon - she normally leaves it 20 years between each album :laugh:

I bet she still writes songs in her spare time. It's feasible that she might feel, at a certain moment in time, to record and release them. And, as someone else stated, record sales aren't a factor.

sure hope so...

Personally, I'd love a Christine McVie album of old blues tunes, just her and her piano and an under-produced backing band.

Oh wait ... that's what the 'Christine Perfect' album was. So I've already got my wish, lol.

How about a modern version... with a couple of ballads too!!

While we're wishing for things that wont ever happen I'd love a blues album - Christine, Peter Green, Mick & John

Gail

I second that wish!

All in favor say aye!

Aye!!!! What a great album that would be. So much more interesting than anything that's come out under the name "Fleetwood Mac" in a long time.

thats for sure!

The way record companies re-hash FM stuff, I wouldn't be surprised if they are trying to compile something Greatest Hits wise that's like Stevie's Crystal Visions. Maybe the best of Christine w/ Fleetwood Mac & then her solo hits. I know there was that yellow promotional CD compilation (forget name of company that released it) but I don't believe that has any of her solo work on it. It would be nice if she got her due with a combined Greatest Hits. Same ol' stuff-repackaged, but I'd buy it!

Christine Perfect got her due with a package!

Sales aren't the sole motivation for an artist to release a record. In Christine's case, money isn't even main factor. In a likely senario, perhaps she's written some songs in her spare time and wants to release them -- with a reasonable expection that it will reach a small group diehard fans.

However, there is no evidence whatsoever that such a project is (or will be) underway.

On the other hand, I think a "Christine McVie Anthology" would be something that might happen. It would include representative samples of her early blues work, her Fleetwood Mac stuff before the California duo joined, as well as some of her solo material, and hopefully dig up some unreleased material that we haven't heard a million times. MAYBE Chris could be motivated to contribute one or two new tracks to such an anthology.

I just have a feeling that's the best we can hope for, and even that probably isn't all that likely.

I hope I'm wrong.

Hello Joanne & all: Add my vote to the blues quartet with Mick, John, & Peter. Certainly a Mac cd for the ages. Also love the idea of a Christine anthology package w/Chicken Shack, FM, and solo works. Not sure how realistic this dream is, but so wonderful to think about! Best regards, Madelow.

Maybe its selling in england..... i mean idk

First off, while the Upcoming Releases section at Pause & Play could be updated/cleaned up, it is, WITHOUT DOUBT, the best site on the internet for new release information.

As for Christine ever recording again, I doubt it. I'd love to see it....but I doubt it. I bet she doesn't even have a manager or agent any more.....just an accountant!!!:laugh:
