quotes from Lindsey, such as this one from 1984 that is stated in several different ways in interviews posted above, seem to imply that while he wanted to do solo projects because FM was somewhat stifling to his creative side, he was always putting being a team player and potential for band's album first:

"There will be a lot of pressure in the next few months to do another Fleetwood Mac album, and I would like to do another if we can make another major statement."

so in 1984 Lindsey thought FM should do another album, and Christine says she has been working with all FM members except hasn't heard from Stevie in well over a year. sounds familiar?

She was flying high on Wild Heart and doing lots of coke..
