Default Say You Will question

I don't know if this has been answered before, but I was wondering......I know most of Lindsey's input on Say You Will was originally going towards his solo album. Atleast 7 of the 9 tracks. I also know that Mick and John played on a some of those tracks that were going to be on Lindsey's solo album. Did they play on all of them? It would seem a bit odd they they would be the rhythm section for his whole solo album. But maybe they were going to be. And judging by the Destiny Rules video all they did was put stevie's vocals on them so all the instrumentation must have been finished before hand.

I've been thinking about how Lindsey will inevitably say every chance he gets that he was working on a solo project and was intervened upon to do a Mac album instead. The fact is, the plan was already in place in 1997/98 to do a Mac album and without Christine, because they knew of her plan to retire. They work on the "5 year plan" and actually have since 1982. Even when LB was gone - they did the '92 inauguration thing - right on schedule. I think they (LB/SN) know in advance what is going to end up on the Mac albums and what will be solo stuff. GOS is pretty much intact from what he intended it to be initially.

In answer of your question, according to Stevie when she was on the TISL tour, Mick and John had already been working with LB on the tracks. So, I think LB must work on the music consistently...the others just go in and lay down their parts as needed and I am sure they all give input as to what goes and what stays but I bet LB as producer gets his way if he feels strongly about something. I think they trust his judgement.
