I'd have to agree that her solo stuff is often a little bland. Christine seems to have gone in a warm, mellow direction in her solo career that's less interesting to me, personally, than her FM material. Certainly not bad--probably excellent, in fact, for what it is. But after listening to her '71-'74 FM material obsessively for the last few weeks,
Christine McVie and
In the Meantime sound a touch anemic in comparison.
Christine Perfect is on iTunes and is my favorite solo album of hers. "I'd Rather go Blind" is the standout, but "Wait and See," "Close to Me," and "For You" are also gems.
