And you gave her the respect and reverence of calling her The Queen. There was a post in another thread yesterday where one said you have spoken “misogyny”. The post was deleted. If that’s true, you certainly speak misandry because you say Lindsey’s voice is shot all the time and that Mick’s hygiene is terrible!

I didn't see the post before it was deleted.

I FOLLOW NO ONE BLINDLY. Nobody is perfekt, and if I feel that their flaws need pointed out, well, I'll paint my index fingernail red, so you can have an easier time following.

My single biggest dislike about BuckVie is that the intro to On With The Show sounds exactly like this one particular royalty free track that gets used on youtube videos all the time.

I quite like the song and the sentiment it expresses,whilst being saddened by the irony of it "I will stand by my band..."

I do think the outro is a tiny bit too long and there seems to be a bit of re-use of a motiff from You and I Part II. John's bass is lovely and tasteful, as ever.

But where's Christine? I'm not going to invest in some super-deluxe headphones to see if I can make her out, deeply buried in the mix. I find it a little odd that LB didn't use her more on his songs, even if he thoughtthat they were in the can before her return...

For a duets album, there could have been a bit more duetting...

Um, what? On all three songs you listed both Lindsey's and Christine's vocals can be heard clearly and you can distinguish one from the other. For songs like Sleeping Around the Corner and Love is Here to Stay, this is not the case. Both great songs (I tell a lie, I bloody hate Love is Here to Stay and usually skip it when I listen to BuckVie), but I doubt Christine is singing on those recordings.

I agree they can be heard clearly, though at first in Don't Stop it was a bit hard to distinguish one from the other.

Besides, in those songs both voices were different than today. Specially Lindsey's, it was far different than in 2017. So in the BuckVie songs it should be very easy to distinguish them.

The reason you can't distinguish Lindsey's and Christine's voices on Lindsey's BuckVie songs is because she is NOT singing on his songs!

Someone else said it, for a duet album they could have done a lot more duetting. And also true, as someone said, Lindsey would have opened his songs to record Stevie's vocals on them (if for example they were doing a duet album). Why not open his songs up for Christine's vocals? Just seems so odd to me. Oh well.

Let's not forget that the project was never initially intended to be a "duet" album. It was going to be a Fleetwood Mac album. They started calling it a duet album after it was clear $tevie was opting out. My point being, the material wasn't constructed with that specific model in mind.

I do agree, it would be nice to hear her more prominently on his songs. I suspect she might actually be in the mix on some tracks, but she's blended (too well) amongst the many layers.
