I think OSOTM is far superior to RAL and SA, but it in no way showcases her true capabilities. Of her solo albums, only BD and WH accomplish that. TISL has flashes of brilliance, but widely misses the mark in others.

I agree. I think anything with those two guys is Fleetwood Mac. It may not be the Fleetwood Mac people want, depending on who else might be included, but it's still FM.

And I also agree that there are really only flashes or Stevie's brilliance on TISL. Not all of the songs are really strong, but for the ones that are, I put it up there with the first two albums. I haven't really decided if I think TOSOTM is superior to RAL yet. I'm really a bigger fan of "Talk to Me" than I am of any of the individual songs on TOSOTM, but that's me and my weird fixation with that song.

How come you say the overall quality's better? Just curious.
