Stevie commented on " Buckingham Movie" album

[TheWildHeart67]

I think Stevie is being rediculous. A new FM studio album would only create positive buzz. She should at least be honest about her reasons for not recording with Lindsay. I don't agree with the opinion that Stevie Nicks no longer can write. IYD was fantastic. And she certainly could record without putting a year in the FM studio sessions. I'd respect her reasons without the "It doesn't sell" excuses. Just say you won't work with Lindsay in the studio and be honest instead of these BS reasons. I always will love Stevie. But she isn't doing herself any favors acting like this.

I can't believe people are questioning her money / "It can't sell" reasoning. It's so down-to-earth and honest. I think it's more genuine than the infamous "feud" between her and Lindsey, which I really think is not as big of a deal as everyone wants to believe.

I do not think ANYBODY here is questioning her money!! We all know she is worth millions Over Sixty million, according to some online sources--I think she is NOT being honest with the reasons she will not record with FM

[dreamsunwind]

She did say that she and Lindsey have moved in different directions musically which makes getting back in the studio hard. And I think this has been the case ever since SYW. So that is definitely one thing. But the fact that she's talking about not writing songs as much anymore and that her last album was old demos, also doesn't help the idea that her personal creativity is also a part of the problem. I think that if she ever releases another album that's the same style as 24KG, with a bunch of old demos, then it'll be confirmation that she just doesn't have that same drive anymore.

oh I totally think she's being honest about the money thing. It matters to her. If she won't rake in big bucks, she won't do it.

I don't think its really the money, I think its the time commitment that she doesn't want. She enjoys making her solo records; she doesn't enjoy making records with Fleetwood Mac.

Its really too bad, as it would have been nice to have (as Lindsey wanted) a final double Fleetwood Mac LP.

Less than three weeks for Tango In The Night. With demo's available and modern recording technology at his disposal, Lindsey could have done Stevie's contributions in just a few weeks. Time really is elastic, her three weeks are stretched out to a year
Time commitment, my backside.

I think everybody knows that she is full of crap. She just doesn't want to record with them and the last time she did, Christine and Lindsey outperformed her by far. She is not going to do an album with them unless she will look good, and she won't .

hmmmm you might be on to something..

Looking at the comments in this thread, I think that a lot of you have nailed the issue here: Stevie's tired of the songwriter life and, seemingly, wants to stop and smell the roses and enjoy whatever years on this planet she has left. I'd say let her do what she wants - she's a grown old woman and still as sexy as she was back in 1997 when "The Dance" DVD was released. I loved the song, "Silver Springs" from that project!

I'd love to see her and the other four do a final farewell tour (like the Eagles) and then let each of them go their own way (slight pun intended there).

You want another greatest hits farewell?

Were you under a rock in 2003, 2004, 2009, 2013, 2014, and 2015?

Actually, yes, I was (musically-speaking). I knew that the band was touring and that they did record another CD "Say You Will" but - after that, I'm clueless as to what they've been up to. That's why I'm trying to catch up.

So just bring more old demos to the band. She always used to complain about her songs never seeing the light of day. You'd think she'd take any opportunity she gets to put them out.

beat the dead horse, time to move on

I've long thought that Stevie is lacking in inspiration these days. Maybe she will record an album of songs about Karen. "Dead Honest" could be one of the song titles.
