Fleetwood mac WILL record new album says stevie

[Phil]

At no point has any band member stated that the songs were/are finished. The Lindsey tracks that were recorded with Mitchell Froom in 2012 may be close to completion, but would still require input from Christine and Stevie. The tracks Christine and Lindsey recorded in 2014, by their own admission, were not completed with both commenting that further work would be undertaken. Naturally, Stevie will be required to add harmony vocals to some or all of these songs plus record her own.
As of January 2016, Stevie has stated that she is on board to record a new Mac album so despite the fact that she has delayed proceedings by not previously committing to the project, her involvement is no longer in doubt. Much of the “blame” actually falls upon every member for deciding to tour from 2013 through to late 2015. That is the primary reason for the album not being progressed/completed.
I sincerely hope Stevie abandons any solo tour plans for this year and works on creating some strong material for the Mac album. If she were to dig into the vault, there are the likes of “Julia” (could be produced to become the sequel to “Sara”), “Forsaken Love”, “China Doll”, “Sanctuary” and many others that could be fashioned into classic Mac tracks. I also think she should consider recording “Fireflies” as a piano ballad (as per the demo snippet).
This final Mac album has the potential to be a worthy swansong if all concerned approach it with enthusiasm and consideration for one another. Even if they do resume recording soon, I would highly doubt a 2016 release – next year is my bet.
