On the albums:

In their history (Rumours 5) They've also had a back log of songs. It's just that during Tusk and after. LB started recording without them. Then either leaving members off, or adding them later. I think that's my main problem with some of the final material.

Having said that, his work with Christine on Mirage and Tango is impressive. SYW, not so much of a chemistry even though some great songs came out of it.
Agreed. The live three-part harmonies on Isn't it Midnight and Eyes of the World are fantastic. Why, oh why were they not considered for their respective albums? Think of how cool Big Love would have been if all three of them were singing on it. When all three voices are singing on The Dance's Silver Springs, I get chills.

Love SYW as a testament to the duo's continued viability as songwriters. The set is strengthened by the trio's instrumentation. But it's so bifurcated. Christine is sorely missed.
