Do we really want a new Fleetwood Mac album?

I'm not really sure that matters. The salient point seems to be that Stevie is hung up on selling records. It was clear with her SYW contributions that foremost on her mind was making commercial music that would sell. When that becomes your goal, it is highly unlikely you are going to create your best music, unless it just kind of happens.

The obsession with selling is wrong on several levels. Artistically, as I mentioned, it is going to affect quality and creativity. Commercially, well, it's pretty much moot at this point, since bands make most of their money from touring. Knowing this, she should just forget about trying to be commercial with her songs and, instead, contribute the best songs she can muster -- assuming she can.
