I think that in the FM FM and Rumours era, La Nicks and LB's voice were very difficult to tell apart at times. Of course, La Nicks had a wider range then than now and when she went really high, she sounded nothing like LB, whise voice was already very high for a male. Listening to that track of the making of "The Chain" when they are finding the harmony structure demonstrates this point well; it also demonstrates why I think her vocals then were among the most interesting and compelling of any of her contemporary female singers in that genre.


The Chain
Sausalito 1976(?)

As does La Nicks' high harmony of Over My Head and her lead on Beautiful Child.
