Rename the White Album with a title track

[Macfan4life]

How about Stephanie. Since Lindsey never cared for titles and Stevie suggested his song be named Stephanie. Its only fair that the lead singer of the band get to name the album.

Say You Love Me was my second choice.
The song was an instant hit and it can be read as the new lineup saying "Say you'll love us."
I had thought it would sound too similar to "Say You Will", but Macfan4life is right--there would be a nice symmetry in having the debut album called Say You'll Love Me and then the reboot album decades later called Say You Will (Give Me One More Chance).

It's interesting to see Crystal getting so many votes.
It is both snappy and evocative.
But will it remain ageless with the love that has finally found it?
Or will it be driven over the mountains into the sea?

I trusted my first, initial feeling and voted for World Turning.
The name calls back to earlier FM but also connotes "revolution". The song itself is a calling card to the new sound of bluegrass influences and the Buckingham McVie writing/singing dynamic.

"Over My Head" because of everything they went through in 1974. Suddenly, they were managing themselves after their manager put a fake band on tour, but somehow became a top 40 band living in Los Angeles with "Heroes..."

So, the title "Over My Head" with the "but it sure feels nice" tagline seems especially apropos.

I chose World Turning too. That album was kind of a turning point. Of course they didn't know that at the moment they chose the title, but it would be a cool name anyway.

World Turning is the only one that really fits as an album title. I still like that the album was self titled though and wouldn't change a thing, other than maybe one more Nicks song on side two- Sorcerer would be an instant fav. would've been killer done by the band complete with the banjo.

Gonna sound strange coming from me, but I always felt that "The White album" and tour needed one more Nicks' song.

It felt that way to me, too—because I approached the album from a point of history. I’d heard Rumours, Tusk, and Mirage before I heard the white album in full. I was accustomed to more Stevie presence. We’d have to interview ChilD (he still around?) and others who came to the album after enjoying the Bob Welch years…

I did always wonder why she didn’t figure more prominently in the mix on “I’m So Afraid” and “Crystal.” And to this day I wish the band had decided on “Frozen Love,” no matter how stunning Christine’s organ work is on Crystal.

They briefly did Frozen Love in 1975.

What was cool is they also did Jumpin’ At Shadows with Christine on vocals.

ETA: Stevie’s vocals could be hit or miss on the 1975 tour. Maybe she wanted fewer leads.

I just dont understand why during the big tours without Christine, they did not do Frozen Love or I Dont Want To Know or other Buck/Nicks tracks. It was the perfect time to do them since they were fronting the band.

I've heard Christine do that version of Jumpin' it's fantastic. Great key work. However, the recording quality is fair/poor.

Sorcerer would have totally rocked.

How about he names it Stepanie, and she changes the album title to Rhinannon? How about that!
