Will Christine Record on the next FM album?
 

Will Christine Record on the next FM album?

This could be either as a singer, pianist or singer-songwriter.

It just seems reasonable to think so. You had asked me a year ago and I would have told you absolutely not.

Part of me wants to say "Yes"...the pessimistic side of me wants to say "No"...the cynical side of me wants to say "there's not going to BE a "next FMac album"". So, I'm pretty much going to abstain. :shrug:

We have the same sentiments, friend.

How it Might Go Down
 

Christine records with FM. Mick and a "bevy" of managers insist on a follow up tour. Mick and Co. convene a meeting to discuss a potential tour. Christine makes it clear that she will not tour. Things get heated and John tells Christine that she better leave. Christine announces she is leaving the band for good this time. Stevie feels betrayed and follows Christine outside. A cat fight ensues, police are called. Details of the cat fight are a bit sketchy as to what really happened, but it all becomes great fodder for Mick's next autobiography. Deja vu!

Lindsey walks over to John & tosses a glass of Blue Nun in his face, just for old time's sake.

Not being pessimistic, but there's not a single word by anybody that would suggest this would even be a consideration. I gotta go with no.

:lol::lol:

:laugh: :laugh:

At this point, I don't see another Mac album happening unless it was Christine's idea, and she was a full member of the band again. And the odds of that happening are pretty much nil.

I think the party is over for another FM record to be recorded but I hope I'm freaking wrong about it.

I would love to see Christine record with them again.

We are lucky to see her popping out for the upcoming shows which is great.

I'd love to say yes, but I'm going to be realistic and go with option C... :sorry:

This. I could see any of the above happening. That Chris has already played live with Mick twice this year and will be doing two cameos at Fleetwood Mac shows in the UK already blows my mind, so anything seems possible at this point.

I really hope for a full album with Christine. SYW and EP are no ways for Fleetwood Mac to sign off on.

I don't think that's being realistic. It's a possibility, but so is them recording more music. I guess it depends on how strictly we're defining this poll. Maybe it's not a full album like the last time, but I feel pretty confident they will record more music at some point.

There won't be a "next FM album", so no point in conjuring.

(it is Fleetwood Mac right?)

They already have most of an album put together from the Lindsay, Mick, and John sessions; three of which wound up on EP. They need Stevie to contribute 3 songs and vocals, Christine 3 songs and vocals, and there is the final Mac album. After Christine visited the U.S., Mick said she was inspired to write again. It's not that far-fetched to think, and hope, this is their final swan song and something is going to come out of this!

I want to say Yes. But I'd be lying if I said I believe there's a chance of any album, so I went with "there's not going to BE a "next FMac album".

Agreed!
This causes too much pain to speculate at this point.
Basically, (I believe) there will only be another FM record if Christine was on board. And for her do that there would have to be at the very very least a small full-fledged FM (Rumours era) reunion tour to promote that record and cash in on that event.:shrug:

Maybe Christine could be persuaded to join a small tour if they could promise her that flying would be minimal, but I highly doubt it.

yup, applebucked and i came up with the tour Christine should be able to agree on, if they don't fly - do a few european festivals, some UK dates, followed by that "tour of interesting places" in Europe they've never been to yet that Mick has been mentioning. :) :D :cool:

Maybe this is what Christine needed... to go away from the band for a long time (like Lindsey did) and come back feeling refreshed. Who knows what the future holds? ;)

I was thinking the same thing today. He was gone for about 10 years, and she was absent for about 15... She earned more vacation time than he had... :lol:

^Yeah. She did the whole Maui thing with Mick... and now this? Maybe she's just easing herself back into the bathtub that is Fleetwood Mac for one last hurrah? She might not be at peace with the way it ended with them before.

^^ Maybe we can hear the whole.. "This whole organic re-convening" speech again..

In an alternative universe, it was a Christine solo record that was hijacked into a Fleetwood Mac album. Or perhaps, it was Stevie who left after The Dance and Christine stayed on.

Disclaimer: I like Stevie. :p

No chance of another FM record. No chance of Chrizzle McVizzle recording with FM again.

another interesting old poll - worth checking these results and how very wrong we all were:

Yes 10 24.39%
No 15 36.59%
There won't be a "next FM album" so no point in conjecturing 16 39.02%
