Well... technically all FM needs to be FM is Fleetwood and McVie. They did complete and sell nine whole albums and a few singles besides without any Buckinghams Nicks or Fritzeses, and a couple best ofs as well. They weren't totally wasted or boring years before they hit the Frampton/arena scale. Mick found Buckingham and Nicks from hearing Frozen Love, and he found other people before and after to invite into his group. His group is what he wants it to be. There would have been no FM for them to have joined if all that went before (for eight years) was not successful.
