This band didn't always make an album at the rate of one per decade. During the Bob Welch years they did five albums in five years. And they were all great albums! Even the 'White Album' and 'Rumours' came out only two years apart.

If they're dinosaurs, it's time to stop behaving like the lumbering Ultrasauros and to decide instead to act like the nimble little Ornithomimids.

I never thought I'd say but I'm with you. I think I would probably love an album written entirely by Lindsey and Christine. I love both their work, both as members of FM and as solo artists. I think it would be magical. I can get my Stevie fix through her solo work, should she continue to make records that is. The Rumours lineup may be together again but I think the magic or whatever it was that existed between Stevie and the rest of the band has long gone. Yesterday's gone...Yesterday's gone...
