Not even close, really. Let's compare the 1971
Greatest Hits album to the 1988
Greatest Hits (NOTE: The European version of the latter album had a different track listing. Thus, I'm using the tracks from BOTH albums for this example.):
The Green Manalishi:
Peter
Oh Well - Part 1:
Peter
Oh Well - Part 2:
Peter
Shake Your Moneymaker:
Jeremy
Need Your Love So Bad:
Peter
Rattlesnake Shake:
Peter
Dragonfly:
Danny
Black Magic Woman:
Peter
Albatross:
Peter
Man Of The World:
Peter
Stop Messin' Round:
Peter
Love That Burns:
Peter
Peter = 10; Jeremy = 1; Danny = 1
Rhiannon:
Stevie
Don't Stop:
Christine
Go Your Own Way:
Lindsey
Hold Me:
Christine
Everywhere:
Christine
Gypsy:
Stevie
You Make Loving Fun:
Christine
As Long As You Follow:
Christine
Dreams:
Stevie
Say You Love Me:
Christine
Tusk:
Lindsey
Little Lies:
Christine
Sara:
Stevie
Big Love:
Lindsey
Over My Head:
Christine
No Questions Asked:
Stevie
*Seven Wonders:
Stevie
*Oh Diane:
Lindsey
Stevie = 6; Christine = 8; Lindsey = 4
Clearly, Peter Green was the hands-down star of his version of Fleetwood Mac, whereas the "Rumours" band was a bit more evenly divided.
