I agree it would have been better to have had Mick, John, Chris and Billy continue as a four-piece band. Perhaps they would have done if Billy hadn't subsequently jumped ship (only to later rejoin).
I think they did a few songs. "World Turning" could be heard in the background later in the segment.

If Christine hadn't stopped touring and had Billy not left, there very well may have been an album with that lineup. However, with Stevie gone, Christine off the road, and the fact that most of Fleetwood Mac's hits were by the the ladies, they needed another female vocalist. And, they needed another male vocalist and a lead guitarist, and Dave Mason fit that bill.

I could have done without Dave Mason, but I thought Bekka did a great job, and I really liked the chemistry she and Billy had.
