Prolific band

[tango87]

It certainly is tragic. The Stones have never really stopped, despite a 4-year sulk in the 80s. Even if the albums have slowed down compared with their glory days, they've carried on touring, and have released a huge amount of classic live shows, on CD and DVD. Stones forums still find plenty to gripe about though - but nothing compared to us... The Stones are a going concern; Fleetwood Mac is a defunct pop group.

The frustrating thing is that some members of FM have always wanted to work. Chaotic as Mick may be, he's certainly been driven to keep the band going. And Lindsey pushed for new music since his return in 97.

The problem is, what made them so beguiling and work so beautifully as a band is what drove them apart - that unique, wonderful chemistry.

We all dreamt of a perfect ending for them, but perhaps what we got was always inevitable.
