I could not care less if FM recorded without Lindsey. I have BTM and I have Time. I like BTM. I don't particularly like Time, but I don't think either album should not have been recorded. The band indicates that they would have done another album and tour between 1982-1987 if Lindsey had been ready. I think they should have gone ahead with it and either them going ahead would have made Lindsey return earlier OR it would have made his return for Tango all the sweeter.

At this point, they have been waiting for another FM album since the SYW tour ended. They could do an album without Stevie now and do one with her in 2016. Then, we'd get two albums instead of one. And, frankly, the contrast would be interesting to me. But holding off more when they've already held off so long already does not seem wise to me. Hoping for something that may never happen is kind of a risk for 65 and 70 year old people.
