It should be easy to tell Bobby Hunt (and even Doug Graves) from Christine McVie. Bobby (& Doug) played organ & synthesisers, Christine played only acoustic & electric pianos on that tour.

At some shows from '72-74, and also even at some early shows in '75, the band with Christine on lead vocals did Duster Bennett's "Jumping At Shadows" which was one of Peter Green's great covers back in the early days of Fleetwood Mac.
The sound quality isn't all that great (but better than most from that era) and the tapers won't shut up during the set, but the 1974 Shrine Auditorium show is worth searching for. It's the entire set and they go places that they didn't normally go to very often in those days.
