No one's trying to rewrite history. That's what the history always was in my view, YMMV. Some of us have been saying that's what it was all along and all Mick did was confirm that. He didn't say anything I didn't know already and hadn't been theorizing already for the last 10 years.

Lindsey and Christine take nothing away from SnL.

Lindsey can have pined for Christine's partnership without endangering the secret love affair he's been having with Stevie for 50 years now that they don't tell the world about.

I know. I thought it was pictures you rudely posted. Then, I ended up feeling argumentative. Right place, right time.

Amen. NOTHING.

That's what Mick says...

And there's no reason not to believe what Mick says about that.

When she was promoting Meantime, Christine said that she was in touch with Mick and Stevie (at that time, later she and John began exchanging recipe and gardening tips) and that some members were mad about her leaving.

Since she was social with Mick and Christine at that time, through the process of elimination the 2 who were upset about her leaving were John and Mick.

After SYW, I think Lindsey was used to them being a foursome and he went on with that, but I think he very much wanted Christine to change her mind and to return for the SYW album and tour and Mick has confirmed that in his book. Of all things to make up, I don't know why that would be one of them.

I liked this from May 1985:

SW: Would you say that you and Christine are the closest musically in Fleetwood Mac?

LB: There is certainly a bond there. Maybe not musically, that's too broad. Maybe instrumentally. I think that if she and I just sit down and play piano and guitar it all flows together as if we were plugged into the same brain sometimes. In terms of overall musical sensibilities I wouldn't say so. My style tends to be structurally and otherwise experimental. In terms of history I'm sort of between Christine and Stevie.

SW: Are you looking forward to recording a new album with Fleetwood Mac?

LB: Well, yes and no. I would like to get another solo project out first because I have one sort of waiting in the wings. The one thing I would like to do is pare the whole thing down and have a slightly less dense album. Fewer things with each of them a little bigger.

SW: Having produced other artists rather successfully and loving the studio, do you see your future in production?
