I go further. I imagine Lindsey never left the band, obviously OOTC and BTM were never produced and the FM album following album (~1990) contains some songs from it (Countdown, Soul Drifter, maybe Don't Look Down) and some Christine and Stevie songs from BTM.

Some ledgie wrote OOTC was released in not a good year, because music tastes were changing. And since the early 90s were very bad years for Stevie, her collaboration wouldn't be enough good. All that makes me think it would not be as succesful as the previous Fleetwood Mac albums, but I guess it would do it good anyway.

They were dated, dinosaur rock at that time. There wasn't room for them on the radio dial.

And finally, absence makes the heart grow fonder.

It's a great song. I'd love to hear the 3 on it.

As I look back….IF, there was no solo projects, Lindsey never left the band in 87 and pick the solo hits from Stevie and Lindsey and Christine’s solo tracks and we had Fleetwood Mac releases in 1984, 1990, 1992 and 1994 they still would (IMO) have been current at the time.( and Stevie’s health wasn’t an issue) IF ONLY!

Probably. I think those 90s albums would do it fine, but not as good as the 70s albums. I guess their tours would always have done great.

Like Queen albums in the 80s, they were fine but their tours were always great.
