In promotional interviews, artists often praise their latest work, sometimes even saying it's the best they've ever done. But if these words were during a private conversation, it is worth analyzing why he said that. It was most likely easier to record the album because there were fewer conflicts than during Tango sessions. But let's face it John, I like BTM but it was not better than Tango.

In 1990 Stevie called BTM her favorite Fleetwood Mac album.
