ETA: Much the same way “I’d Rather Go Blind” was part of Christine’s Chicken Shack portfolio. ETA 2: If Lindsey played “Blue Letter” during a solo show, would you think of it as a Fleetwood Mac song or a Curtis Bros. song? ETA 3: And, if Fleetwood Mac did “At Last,” I would think of Stevie solo. Would you refer to it as an Etta James song? The first recording of the song was by the Glen Miller Orchestra in 1942, eighteen years before Etta, and was sung by a man.

I don't agree that Free Fallin in the 2018 setlist was a Stevie solo song. Tom's was the hit and the iconic one. Tom was in every photo on the screen behind her during the performance too. Same thing for Not Fade Away, Circle Dance, Rock and Roll, She Smiled Sweetly, I Am Waiting. Not Lindsey or Stevie's songs; they're covers. |

For me, it's who recorded it first. Carole wrote Natural Woman but I believe it's an Aretha song. So you would list Go Insane and Stand Back as FM songs, right? |

The Curtis Bros. didn’t write “Blue Letter” for Buckingham Nicks or Fleetwood Mac. They wrote it for their band and always intended to release their own version. They happened to be recording at Sound City and Fleetwood Mac liked the song. Quote:
You’re making way too much of this. Stevie’s cover of Free Fallin’ was part of her solo portfolio. She recorded and released it. End of discussion for me.

Speaking of Joe Cocker, if he had ever joined Fleetwood Mac, would “With A Little Help From My Friends” been a Beatles cover or something from Joe Cocker’s career outside of Fleetwood Mac?

I believe BMW is a Fleetwood Mac song that Santana covered. I believe Feelin Alright is a Traffic song. If Cocker was in the 2018 lineup of FM, and FM played With a Little Help, they'd be covering a Beatles song. And I believe that if they played the Cocker sounding one, it's still a Beatles cover and not a Joe Cocker song. |

Now, how does the fact that Dave Mason plays the Joe Cocker version, not the Traffic version, play into this? Is it Dave Mason covering Joe Cocker covering Dave Mason? Did Dave enter some weird dimension where he somehow ended up covering himself?

Now why are you acting like this? I've been very respectful in this conversation.

To me, Dave Mason would be singing his song. Just a different sounding one than the original |

and on much smaller scale what Dixie Chicks did with Landslide. in that case, Stevie took Landslide back, after it became big.
