Fleetwood mac WILL record new album says stevie

[SteveMacD]

Speaking of Sir Rod, I wonder how much of an impact working with Beryl Marsden in Shotgun Express had on Mick as far as bringing Christine, and later Stevie, and even Bekka, into Fleetwood Mac.

Christine does not strike me as needing money. This is a fable chiffons and jealous shippers come up with because it destroyed their spotlight!!

That Christine ruined everything!! They were just about to put out a B/N album!!!

Oh sure, Stevie and Lindsey were just about to cowrite fabulous songs about their enduring romantic love.

I didn't say that Christine needed money.I said that she is greedy. Mick has often needed money and is even greedier.

They're all greedy. Lindsey a little bit less than the rest but that's only in comparative terms.

The songwriters don't need the money and probably don't care about it.

I don't think they are greedy. They are simply utilizing what the public will pay. Even Stevie can't resist jumping on that ship. With Christine coming back, the stakes became very very high. Much higher than the 2013 stakes. Look at what happened in London when RUMOURS broke of Christine playing there as a guest. The place went bonkers.

I know I wouldn't turn down millions of dollars to do my art. Would anyone?

Depends what else you have in your life and how much you value that over money.

Lindsey has always valued money (don't be fooled) but he's valued artistic integrity over profits (usually; he's compromised lately re: FM). He's got a family and I suspect if things take too much time away he'd turn down some profits. Christine had simply had enough of the touring and the flying and wanted some personal time and walked away from all the money of a more extended tour and future albums.

The only one not saying no to money would be Mick, and Stevie. I think he's got plenty to live on and with his boat and family taken care of John isn't as grubbing for cash either.

Money's great, and this is a business so it's tempting to get it while you still can, but not everyone does everything solely for money.

I don't believe anyone stated that they did.

Point taken, you are, as usual, right...

The only thing I'd add is, they could still make millions on the oldies tours while also making new music to stay alive artistically.

They must. It will give them some integrity.

And I'm saying yes, some people would if there were other priorities in life that mattered to them more.
