Why wouldn't Mick want to do albums that are nonRumours sounding? We can all pretty much guess what a Lindsey album is going to sound like, the same with Stevie and Christine as well. With Mick and John, being rhythm players, not singers or "front men", they need bands and singers to work with. We got a very small taste of how John works with other musicians on his "Gotta Band" project and now we've had various versions of what Mick is into with his several projects.
Can't they all just be appreciated for what they are and not compared to Rumours????
I'm actually pretty shocked (and then again not so much owing to the lack of blues love on this forum, no offense, just a fact) that Blue Again hasn't gotten more votes. It's a fantastic CD and a real tribute to the PG/original era of FM that really pours out the love for the music that the MFBB has.

chili said " Rumours-era," which means it's the one that sounds most like it could have been made by those 5 people; not necessarily similar Rumours itself.
p.s. -- I'm listening to I'm Not Me right now and chili is uncannily (though not surprisingly) right in his "casting" of the Rumours-era mac members for each song. WOW.
