I don’t think Lindsey recording a “pop” album was an attempt to lure Stevie into the studio. Per previous interviews, Lindsey announced that he would be releasing a “best of” and had already recorded an album that would be released in March. He said, when asked, that it was a pop album. Was the recorded pop sound intentional, subliminal, or by chance? Who knows. Since March has all but come and gone, there has been a lot of fan speculation. My personal opinion is that Warner liked the sound of Buckingham McVie and the new solo album and are now trying to manipulate that into an FM album. To me, Lindsey’s songs generally sound the same whether on an FM album, solo or Buckingham McVie. His greatest contribution has always been the impact that he has on the other songwriter’s songs. While that studio time may be painful for other band members, the success of FM in the Buckingham Nicks era is indisputable.
