Absolutely! Also she said something along the lines of "people don't buy albums anymore", but the demographic that Fleetwood Mac would mostly appeal to in 2017 would actually buy the physical product. I can just picture those at the Steve Hoffman Retirement Home for Lovers of Talking About Pet Sounds arguing over which is the best pressing.

Besides, she would only have needed to contribute three songs, or be in the studio for a fortnight like she was on Tango in the Night. The press about it being the first album from the five-piece Mac line-up for 30 years would have phenomenal and led to far more exposure than this record's gonna get. A wasted opportunity.

Lindsey saying this could be their last album definitely intensifies the wasted opportunity

does it matter whether two musicians whose collecive age is over 140 years approved a naff sleeve?

Maybe if they expect anyone under the age of 70 to pick it up and give it a listen?

josh otm, i haven't bothered checking out any of LB's recent solo albums just because of the awful covers. a stupid reason, for sure, but not uncommon.
― flappy bird, Saturday, 15 April 2017 21:32 (six years ago) link
They're great! The covers, too. OK, maybe not Seeds We Sow, which is very much akin to this one:https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/ca/Seedswesow.jpg/440px-Seedswesow.jpg
But I like this one, especially that it is out of focus:

yeah they are both really great

anyway, is Mac touring this year outside of this stupid East/West coast mega show with the goddamned Eagles?
― akm, Sunday, 16 April 2017 05:58 (six years ago) link
This isn't nearly as shit as I was expecting when I pressed play on that video. Also, nice nod to the classic 87 AH! "Big Love" samples in the track.
― yesca, Sunday, 16 April 2017 06:05 (six years ago) link
haha it's so sad this isn't a FM release when will that band ever get a commercial breakthrough :O
song is good
― niels, Sunday, 16 April 2017 11:01 (six years ago) link
Looking forward to this but my god that is cover is crap.
― dance cum rituals (Moka), Sunday, 16 April 2017 12:12 (six years ago) link
The album cover I mean.
It's a really good song with all the tasty rhythm section work we've come to expect from Fleetwood Mac, the bass and drums in this case having that lovely 'Dreams' groove.
― ...so music and chicken have become intertwined (Turrican), Sunday, 16 April 2017 12:26 (six years ago) link
I just love that this song scans as "classic" Mac (late '70s imperial phase production/rhythm work) but is also just this weird-ass Lindsey thing
― bunny slopes, Sunday, 16 April 2017 17:39 (six years ago) link
Everyone's talking about Lindsey, but this is also Christine's first significant studio recording in a very long time. Looking forward to it.

OTM. It's also the first Fleetwood Mac album for over a decade, which is all the more reason to get excited.
― ...so music and chicken have become intertwined (Turrican), Sunday, 16 April 2017 19:56 (six years ago) link
love love love the single. puzzled/alarmed by the tour announcement, which currently has the buckingham mcvie tour skipping la (and ny), maybe because la (and ny) have the classic west east thingy at baseball stadiums with the eagles, but that's going to make me jealous of the rest of the country which gets to see them in not-a-baseball-stadium. please fix this, lindsey and christine, once you are done fixing the album cover kthxbye.
― fact checking cuz, Sunday, 16 April 2017 21:39 (six years ago) link
yeah, wish they were coming to the bay area.
also, there WAS a Mac EP (download only) a few years back. It was good. It was completely overlooked.
― akm, Tuesday, 18 April 2017 21:05 (six years ago) link
yeah weird that this is never mentioned (although I cannot remember anything about it myself)

"Sad Angel" is a fine song that I listen to often.

aw that's a good one, a bit of Mirage feel
― Dominique, Thursday, 27 April 2017 15:58 (six years ago) link
yeah, Mirage via McCartney, maybe. It's good! Starting to feel like this album's gonna be great
― Wimmels, Thursday, 27 April 2017 16:56 (six years ago) link
nice "Magnet and Steel" reference too

goddamn, another great song. this album is gonna rule i can't believe it
― flappy bird, Thursday, 27 April 2017 17:40 (six years ago) link
Yeah, this Fleetwood Mac album is going to rule.
― The Anti-Climax Blues Band (Turrican), Thursday, 27 April 2017 17:46 (six years ago) link
eh the first song was at best OK – a bit enervated.
― the Rain Man of nationalism. (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 27 April 2017 17:48 (six years ago) link
after a month of listening to Lindsey's first solo album nonstop, it was revelatory. you can put 'in my world' and 'trouble' on a 45 and it would make sense
― flappy bird, Thursday, 27 April 2017 17:50 (six years ago) link
they're both good songs alfred
― ToddBonzalez (BradNelson), Thursday, 27 April 2017 17:50 (six years ago) link
but i can def believe this album is gonna rule, it's not like any recent lindsey solo record sucks

I haven't heard the second. I didn't hear much Christine on the first.

Dave Fizdale is the name Lindsey used to check into hotels in the '80s.
