The reason I voted for Buckingham/Nicks is because it's the singer's I'm most concerned with. Aanyone could play the drums, bass or guitar as far as I am concerned. I don't go to a LB show to hear him play guitar, though I do enjoy the way he plays. I'm there because I like him and his vocals. I go to see Stevie because I love the sound of her voice and for the visual aspect.
I would be just as happy with a Fleetwood Mac album but this poll only allowed us to vote for one. |

I love Fleetwood Mac most, always. That's where Stevie did her best work. I love some of her solo albums, but none of them, to me, have quite lived up to her contributions to Fleetwood Mac, WA-Mirage. I would say the same of Christine.
I think Lindsey, on the other hand, has done much of his best work on his own. I probably enjoy LB's solo material as much, if not more than, Stevie's. They're so different, though, that it's impossible to compare. I love BN, but the body of work is so limited, I can't rank it. In terms of what comes next, I'd be ecstatic for more material from any configuration.

I love Fleetwood Mac dearly. There is never a question of that. And I honestly would be overjoyed if Buckingham-Nicks ever did decide to tour as a duo and the energy that their collaboration would give off...ugh, so beautiful.
But I would be lying if I didn't say that I am a straight up Lindsey girl through and through. He is my main draw to Fleetwood Mac at all, and his music is what I listen to more than anything related to FM. I've seen him live far more times than FM or SN and I am truly, sincerely in love with that man's music and artistry. He never fails to blow me away.

i own only Tusk and SYW out of FM studio albums, and all LB's studio and live albums, DVDs and blu-rays. regarding BN, as everybody knows by now, i really dislike the sound of the original BN album. however i do like the sound of Twisted and SA (however different they are!), and can appreciate the chemistry between Stevie and Lindsey over the years. so i would be curious to see what they do together, w/o whatever expectations and constrains may be within FM. if any BN project happens i would expect it will be done fast (maybe put out on Mind Kit label?), and that any tour behind it would be really short, before going back to big-money-for-everybody FM touring. i would be curious to see a show on BN tour, especially as that would presumably not be a big arena seller such as FM shows. as long as that's all done quick and we can get more of LB solo as soon as possible. they are not getting any younger, nobody can afford 3-4 years for a FM project cycle anymore! |

I also don't think Stevie would ever desire an album she's involved with to be released on an independant label. |

She may not have a choice. Unless that's the real reason for the holdup on a new FM album. They don't have a label...

IMO, of course she has a choice if she says the songs are not done.

But, if she chooses to participate -- and they don't have a label -- then, there are other options available.

Yep. They can give it to us and we will promote it. Welcome to Ledgie Promotions.

As the first CD by one of the core quintet, I got the "Out Of the Cradle" CD because I enjoyed Billy Burnette's music and thought Lindsey Buckingham was a bandmate of his. Well, he was but not exactly.
There is no option in the poll for fans of other members so I just mention it here. |

Yeah, why no Zoo or Gotta Band???
I don't get the indie label hang-up, but then again I work for Guided by Voices. If being on the charts is more important than making an artistic statement, then I really have no sympathy for whoever. Today's top 40 sucks. People who want to be in THAT company have already lost their soul. |

Toatally agree with everything you said Nico. A BN tour would be intriguing...their chemistry is legendary and I'd be lying too, if I said I didn't care to witness it in person, without the full band. And hopefully with their mics closer together than when they're with FM BUT, if I could only see one more concert - ever - what whould it be? LB of course! I never want him to stop touring and I would prefer seeing Lindsey, LIVE, more than anything else in the world. I love him. He's just too damn good in concert!! And we're running out of time for any of these options, so, all said, I'm in the camp that says I'd be very happy with any of the options - as long as I am certain to get more Lindsey solo as well...and soon!

Personally I don't think we're running out of time for anything. As far as we know both Lindsey and Stevie are in good health. Being in your 60's really isn't old age considering I'm 50 and all my siblings are in their 50's and my oldest sibling is 62 and we're all healthy. Great singer's will perform until they die. These guys may live to be well into their late 80's or longer and that's why I don't want to hear any more talk from you young Ledgies about a farewell BN album or a farewell FM album. They may be making albums for another ten or twenty years for all we know.
