Actually this situation seems unique to me. For Mirage/Wild Heart, the band did the album and a tour, and then ALL of them went to work on solo projects. I don't think they were enjoying each other all that much at that point. For TISL/SYW, Stevie's album was coming out and of course she would tour as she had for every one of her previous albums. Ever since she began a solo career, the band has always scheduled recording sessions knowing they can work for a while without Stevie and that she can join them later. This is the first time she has started a project when Fleetwood Mac needed her (and this is assuming that she isn't doing some FM-related work as we speak, which I suspect she is, if for no other reason than Christine's presence in Nashville).

As I posted earlier she may have had this planned and made commitments before there was any hint of Christine's return...

Yes, that's true. But I was just pointing out that I don't think this scenario has played out before.

I think "Mirage" & "Tango" were both started while Stevie was involved in a solo project...

Yes, she was involved in solo projects that were already underway when Fleetwood Mac convened. She didn't start one after they went into the studio.

Fleetwood Mac may be the one that started an album knowing full well that Stevie would be starting a solo record at about the same time...

I don't buy this theory that this album has long been in the works. That sometime last year she had these mere 2 weeks booked to record an album. I don't think she would agree to the tour this year if she'd already planned to release a solo album. I don't think she would do that knowing it would kill her album commercially without being able to promote it. To me it seems like something she put together knowing she doesn't have a lot of time. And maybe because she's knocking it out so quickly and not laboring over it she's ok with the tour taking precedence.

I don't think it's that unique. From 1979 to 1989, Stevie was involved 5 Fleetwood Mac albums, including a greatest hits and live album plus 4 solo albums. She is used to juggling projects.

She was recording regularly with FM back then. Since SYW she's shown (and expressed) a strong reluctance to record with the band. Only singing some background vocals for the EP last year. I don't think the situations are comparable in terms of her mindset. Not to mention they actually had a recording contract back then.

She toured with Petty and Dylan when FM needed her. Yes, her drug rehab needs was beyond her control, but the little side tour wasn't.

That tour was not preplanned but after some calls she decided to go to the other side of the world.

Do we need any more proof???
I wonder if they are already trying to generate "media buzz" for the record???




I wonder if Dave Grohl will be on the new SOLO record???

I'm glad that Stevie is sticking with Dave producing her music.As we seen in the DVD she had a ball working with him and not those tense FM recording sessions.
