Yeah, that was NOT a good moment for her...

"The worst time really for me was, when we were doing that first album, was that Lindsey had been writing World Turning and I really wanted… I was his girlfriend too, you know, so you’ve got to realize that made me extra sensitive. And I really wanted to help with the song and he turned away completely and asked Chris. And that was the worst night of me being in Fleetwood Mac, because I went out to the parking lot and sat in the car and cried because I couldn’t figure out why he would tell me no and tell her yes. And it wasn’t even Christine, it was Lindsey that I was really bummed with, because I was so hurt. Then I realized as the days and weeks went on after that, that if we were going to do this, I was going to have to share him a little bit. And I was going to have to back off, because Christine certainly, of all people, didn’t want to cause any trouble between Lindsey and me. Just her as a musician and singer and a really nice lady that was becoming a friend of Lindsey’s, probably the kind of friend that I never was, nor will I ever be… he could accept her in a lot of ways that he couldn’t accept me. Because I loved her, it was alright. If I hadn’t had liked Christine, it would have been impossible. I would have had to leave, because I would have been so jealous."

I give her a lot of credit for overcoming that. I might have really raised hell in that situation.

Bob and Tom were part of the Travaling Wilburys.
along with Jeff Lynne,Roy Orbison and George Harrison.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveling_Wilburys

Great music from great classic artists.





Also Dave Stewart was involve with them.

If they could add a gal to the band at that time .They could of got Emmylou Harris .Dolly Parton,Linda Ronstadt or even Stevie.

Lindsey could sit in and add some picking too.

I didn't know that we all know that. I believe the new album will be all new songs, no re-do's of previous work. If there is ever an updated box set, those EP songs should be featured on it.

Default Lindsey Buckingham sheds light on Fleetwood Mac album sessions

Lindsey Buckingham sheds light on Fleetwood Mac album sessions
Oct. 17, 2014


Prior to Fleetwood Mac hitting the road, Lindsey Buckingham spent time turning Christine McVie's recent piano and vocal demos into new Fleetwood Mac tracks, which will form the basis of the band's first new album with McVie in 27 years. Although Mac has released both a 2012 EP and 2003 album Say You Will in McVie absence, the fact remains that the group's last album with McVie -- 1987's Tango In The Night -- remains their biggest seller behind 1977's blockbuster, Rumours.

Buckingham spoke about the new work to The Wall Street Journal and explained how this project is different than the rest: "Christine and I were able to concentrate on each other. We were exploring some new turf. That became enlightening to me. . . We never envisioned finishing the album in the short term. We set it aside. Stevie (Nicks) will come in and participate. I have material I had been working on. There’s no danger that it will slip between the tracks. It’s too profound to."

As the two main instrumentalists for Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie shared a particularly unique bond -- one that was only strengthened over the years when Buckingham contributed so fiercely to the productions of her classic tracks for the band: "Christine and I, who are two musicians, who are every well grounded in their craft, have a kind of symmetry of respect and love for each other on a creative and a musical level. And I think that was a big part of that whole being greater than the sum of the parts was at that time. I could do for her -- I did for Stevie, too -- but the fact that she could fuse her sensibilities into my stuff and I could tap into what I do as a producer, say, and give back so much to her.

Side Notes:

In May 2013 Fleetwood Mac released the Extended Play EP, featuring the first new music from the band in a decade. Three of the four tracks -- the Lindsey Buckingham-written, "Sad Angel," "It Takes Time" and "Miss Fantasy," were co produced by Buckingham and studio veteran Mitchell Froom.

The fourth track is a vintage Stevie Nicks song -- "Without You" -- which was produced by Buckingham and Nicks and is a remake of an early Buckingham Nicks track that was slotted for the duo's planned second album. The track was long forgotten by the pair until Nicks rediscovered the song via YouTube.

Fleetwood Mac's last full-length studio album, Say You Will, was released on April 15th, 2003 and peaked at Number Three on the Billboard 200 album charts.

Thanks for this. If, as of October 2014, LB was saying Stevie will come in and participate, then that's a good sign...I hope.

yeah that was the interpretation many had for this particular quote around here at time when it first came out; others thought it sounds more like hope than certainty.

many have talked to Mick and several have talked to LB since; last i've heard was november. they both said she was not on board but they were really hoping she will change her mind and join them, but if not, they may have to consider some other options. and then SN interview came out where she said she doesn't know whether she will be on board for new FM album / how she will feel about it eventually.

and then there are tons of speculations and fairy tales being spun around.

Thanks for posting. I think I read somewhere that she took one of his instrumentals and put a melody and lyrics on it.
