<p>Like Yngve, I thought One In A Million was pretty decent. Unlike Yngve, Ask Anybody didn't do too much for me. The other song that sticks out for me would be I'm The One. No, it's no Van Halen cover tune. But those two songs seemed to feel like more than background music, which is more than I can say for the rest of the album. Heck, maybe it's Winwood's backing vocals on the former that make me like it.</p>

<p>Never heard of this or any other McVie solo album and looking at the titles I was sure I never heard of any of these songs either. However, "Ask Anybody" and "One In A Million" struck me with a familiar note and are the only two songs, that left a lasting impression. Otherwise, I have to agree with the reviewer, Lindsey could have turned these songs for better.

Otherwise, I have to agree with the reviewer, Lindsey could have turned these songs for better. Not that their so called collaboration from a year or so ago brought out the talent the duo is known for, but with little bit of magic, this material could have had more potential than the 2017 CD.</p>
