As we all know, Stevie is very into the number three and I see her albums before IYD as being parts of two trilogies. BD, WH, and RAL were the cocaine laden albums during Stevie's prime. TOSOTM, SA, and TISL were Stevie's dark klonopin years falling from grace, hitting rock bottom, and rising back up again. I think IYD starts a new trilogy for Stevie and she will end her solo career with her 9th album, 3 sets of 3. Of course this is just my mystical speculation, but I can definitely see it happening.

These words are exactly what I'm thinking.

I am fine with this being Stevie's last solo album (although I suspect it won't be). It's her masterpiece. Meanwhile, I DO want more Fleetwood Mac albums. I don't even need Buckingham Nicks II (though that would be fine as well) because Fleetwood Mac is/could be essentially Buckingham Nicks+ the greatest rhythm section of all time.

I'ma put money on this:

her next solo cd will be her last. she's gonna tell ONE story, her last story. 13-14 tracks........beginning - end. it deep, loving, scary, funny, scandalous and heartbreaking. she's gonna blow our minds with this one!!!!

there will be no BN album.

IF, and lemme stress IF, there is another MAC album, Stevie will not take great part in it. i think it'll be more of a LB album than MAC. (maybe, just maybe if DS is apart of the next mac CD stevie will have more to say.........maybe).

her last cd will come AFTER the MAC album which means they need to record NOW!

At this point, I'd be a lot happier with remasters of all the solo albums, including 2nd cds with all the demos & outtakes for each album. Then, she can work on her last solo cd. I'm not at all interested in another FM record if it's going to end up sounding anything like SYW, which I expect it will unless they can get Christine back, which obviously isn't going to happen...

I actually think Say You Will would have been a really great Fleetwood Mac album had Stevie's material been produced differently. I actually think the songs she contributed were the most solid set she has ever turned in for any Mac album.

I like the way you think.

Have you heard the Tusk album? How bout Rumours?

[wheart]

maybe this is wishful thinking but I kinda think she'll do another cd. I think she enjoyed this experience way too much to not do it again. As far as Fleetwood Mac goes, I think they're done. Christine's gone and for me, it's just not Fleetwood Mac without her. I honestly can't see a Fleetwood Mac album at this point surpassing anything Lindsey or Stevie could put out on their own.

Hmm....in terms of feeling inspired, Nicks and Buckingham are both definitely in the "let's record more albums" phase. In terms of whether it's economically feasible, that's an open question. I'm guessing that since she largely recorded her album at home that the 52,000 sales of In Your Dreams for the first week are enough that the record company didn't lose money on the album.

Where it might be an issue is whether Nicks can accept albums of hers not going Gold anymore. I mean she's had an incredible track record: 1 multi-platinum, 1 double platinum, 3 platinum, and 3 gold. The only albums she hasn't had go at least Gold are Crystal Visions (which probably will pass Gold this year), Soundstage Sessions (which, being a live album, she probably doesn't expect to go Gold), and now In Your Dreams (which may or may not go Gold, depending on how long her sales keep going). If she's not comfortable with her albums no longer going Gold, she may stop just for that reason.

I do think a new Fleetwood Mac album, even without Christine, would have a good shot of going Gold. But I liked someone's idea of getting Christine back on board to do a final double Fleetwood Mac album.

I'm hopeful that Nicks will join Buckingham in thinking that what's important is getting the music out there. Buckingham has been on an album-releasing tear lately and I'm hoping Nicks starts following suit.

And I hope that Mac decides that its fine for Christine to just record with them.

With the exceptions of Tango In The Night and Behind The Mask, Nicks has been remarkably consistent in turning in really great songs for Fleetwood Mac albums. I'd say her contributions to Fleetwood Mac (white album), Rumours, Tusk, Fleetwood Mac Live ("Fireflies"), and Mirage were all excellent songs.

IMO She came a long ways back with Say You Will from her sub-par (for her) songs on Tango and Mask. It's not quite up to the White Album-Mirage era, but nearly every song she contributed for Say You Will was really good. She was only held back in that she contributed 9 songs....if she'd just contributed the 3 or 4 best like a typical Mac album, it would have been totally on par with the White Album-Mirage era.

Stevie's as much as said that it's not about sales, it's about her craft. That's why she made IYD. Being that she's had so much fun making this record with Dave and has discovered the art of actually co-writing songs with him, I highly doubt that she'll stop making more music now. Whether it's solo or with FM, I believe it's safe to assume that there's a lot more music coming from Stevie.

[Thrown_Down]

I think she contributed 9 stellar songs on Say You Will. Whilst I LOVE what she did during the White Album to Tusk phase, which was truly iconic, I still think that her 2003 contributions were more solid, in so much as there was not one track I would care to skip amongst all nine. I cannot say I feel the same way about all the songs she contributed on the aforementioned albums. ( E.g.: Angel, Crystal, I Don't Want To Know.)

Of course it's all subjective, and a matter of taste and personal preference, but even so I do particularly enjoy her Say You Will songs, even if I don't love the production in several cases.

Yep, that's how Ann & Nancy from Heart, feel!

Their last album released last summer made a debut in the top 10 but it hasn't reached gold yet, which is sad!

They to will release more music in the future like Stevie!
