Christine McVie's "Got A Hold On Me" is a good-not-great uptempo number that is no pox on her good-not-great uptempo numbers for the Mac. Discuss.

I couldn't agree more, though I'd add that some of Christine's less uptempo numbers for the Mac are, in fact, great ("Warm Ways" foremost among them).

Oh my god. "Warm Ways" is my favorite Mac slow jam. I've been sleeping around for years looking for the man who can rumple the sheets and leave with a smile as guiltlessly as Christine's lover (John?) does in that song.

Not to mention the sterling transition it makes out of Lindsay's "Monday Morning" - but we're here to talk McVie, not the rest of the lot. I'd add to that, not just guiltlessly, but guilelessly. (Though to be fair, let's give some of the credit for the splendor of "Warm Ways," in fact, to Mr. Buckingham, for his perfect light touch behind the boards, which complements McVie's lyrics and delivery of 'em to, as they say, a T.)
