You know, back then, the whole world wanted her (thus the song, Sit On My Face, Stevie Nicks - how many people have a song like that written about them?). It would be hard(pun intended) to not sample the finer wares sitting on the shelf. Although after AIDS reared it's ugly head, it was pretty dumb to continue her conquests. But when you're high AF on blow, you don't care.

BTM was the first Fleetwood Mac album I owned and the one that turned me into a fan — specifically of Christine. In those first years of going back through their back catalogue, her songs were the ones I gravitated toward most, which makes sense because I think BTM is primarily a showcase for her and whet my appetite for more of her wonderful style of writing and singing. I don’t think there’s anything on this album that could make a new Stevie, Billy or Rick fan of anyone. Their material isn’t bad, but it’s all kind of boring.

On the whole, BTM is a very boring album, save for a hand full of songs.

I was listening to one of the Christine's local radio interviews when they were on the BTM tour. She stated Stevie was around on BTM about as much as she was for Tango.

Her lack of presence probably largely explains her mediocre contributions with the exception of her stellar background vocals throughout and Love Is Dangerous. Now had she brought a Rooms On Fire to the album...a guy can dream.

Overall, I think the production tanked “Freedom” and maybe “Affairs of the Heart.” Maybe they would have been fine with a different producer. I think Greg would have ruined “Rooms on Fire.”

I agree Steve, Greg would have seriously butchered Rooms on Fire, but I was thinking more in the vein of better material. It wasn't Fleetwood Mac hurting her career at that point, it was she herself, diminished consistent writing and atrocious production choices, Rooms on Fire and 1/4 of OSOTM exception.

I think you are half right. I dont think it was a conscious decision not to offer her better songs. She was offering her most recent writings which were poor in the klonopin era. Where I do think you are right is her hoarding her older songs for solo work which were better than her current writings at that time. Her contributions to Tango and BTM were all recent writings. I think she was trying to remain fresh.

The mission was doomed to fail from the start.
