A copy was given to me when it came out. I made it through it twice, trying to like it, and just couldn't do it again.

Some of those songs were amazing back in the day. Add the nasal factor and I'm tapping out.

It outsold LCBM, however.

There's absolutely no accounting for taste. If there was, I could explain that old goat's popularity.

And I don't give two f*cks what the masses like. I make my own choices based on the merits of the work before me.

Sheeple.....

Do you like goat cheese or milk? I do.

LBCM did better than 24KG and IYD in the United Kingdom. Stevie did press in London for IYD, but not 24. Chris did press for LBCM in June of 2017.

Indeed, I do.

I just have no interest in comparing numbers. If I love something, I don't care if I'm the ONLY person who buys it, and gets it. I care about my artist being financially successful, but beyond that, if I'm the only one who "gets it", I'm good with that. $tevie fans have always loved to push her numbers. I couldn't give a f*ck about numbers. It's about music that I personally enjoy.

I like what I like too. That is why I stick by Stevie and her work on spite of everything. BTW Stevie's 24KG tour sure eclipsed the Lindsey and Christine tour. Sold out arenas all over!!

In spite of everything? Boy, that sure sounds like a pass for crappy workmanship!

See? Wtf? A numbers pusher at their finest! Congrats. You have MASS BLIND TASTE. I'm certain your mother is proud.

I was (made my way to) front row for BuckVie. It was a true highlight of my lifetime of FM adulation. If I'd been the only one there, I would have felt sorry for them, but still couldn't have been any happier.

Btw, I think $tevie just farted. You'd better go try and find it on record!

OTOH, £ind$€¥ fans want to give him full credit for their superstardom. That’s when the numbers come into play. I also don’t especially care, but then I’ve never credited any single member for their superstardom. Truth be told, Stevie is probably eighth on my of Fleetwood Mac members (if I counted Neil and Mike on that list, which I don’t, since they haven’t done anything significant with them, yet, she’d be 10).

Oh but your endless defense of Stevie, Christine, and Mick doesnt imply anything.

I would not rank any Stevie album over any Lindsey album ... until IYD and 24KG.

Both are probably my fav Mac solo albums.

The irony is IYD is too long and 24KG gets better by having the two(?) bonus tracks.

Fleetwood Mac helped me through a time of heartbreak. 12 years later, they broke my heart.
