Hope they tell us something about a new album next year!!!

Just listened to the Radio 2 interview. Didn't learn anything new - same stories, same cliches! Though Johnnie Walker isn't the best interviewer in my opinion (though I think he is a great DJ and picks some really good music).

Some limited info on a possible new album. I think I will see the Olympics in London in 2012 before I hear a new album.

The only interesting thing was a bit more about how they managed themselves. I still maintain that the band could have been even bigger with better management, better planning and better promotion.

Even now, they could be releasing new stuff to keep the interest going - remasters, rarities, live CDs/downloads, live boxset, unplugged and even did the odd track for a soundtrack.

Anyway... over to someone else to give a proper review!

Interesting. Can you at all sum up the limited info they discussed?

Unfortunately the BBC tv link /BBCi for telly work with UK IP addresses--it's not accessible to those of us outside the UK or using an anonymous proxy, etc. I'm not sure if there is another way around, I'm not terribly techy,but it's so frustrating to us transplanted Brits.

Anyway, would love a review of the BBC doc: anything new or newsworthy? New interviews?

The documentary was OK - nothing new really. John and Mick came across as so funny, I thought.

Christine clearly was not invited to participate or didn't want to, so they used some footage of her from the 1988 documentary and one from her ITM video interview.

It was a decent overview.

The documentary was really good, but nothing new was learnt in terms of the history. New interviews though, taken from the same time I think as when Stevie was in Australia. However, there was a sort of new perspective on the relationships. My mam said something to me after it finished, in reference to Stevie and Lindsey - 'They never forgave each other, did they?' It really got to me. That's the emotion I came away with after watching it. I felt melancholy. It was odd, because normally when I read interviews about them discussing each other I'm just like, 'Same ****, different day.' It was just heartbreaking.

Hey I found a show, "In the Studio" that is doing a 30th anniversary celebration on Fleetwood Mac's album, TUSK.

It's an interview show featuring Lindsay Buckingham and Stevie Nicks exclusive interviews. Go to www.inthestudio.net to preview the show, it's in the top left corner, and by Monday it will be there to stream entirely. Sounds great.

Just wanted to share that with you. enjoy.
