Lol what? Mick and John CAN play more than one note. That's why they're the famous Fleetwood Mac rhythm section. It's pretty obvious who she was referring to, the other Fleetwood Mac creative force that is not her or Lindsey who very famously only knows about 3 chords and can't play any instrument proficiently.

...and yet the shabby old goat can out-write and out-sing both Christine and Lindsey, even on a bad day - cue Tango In The Night. It's a sad state of affairs - so much wasted talent and time. Poor old bastards...

[AncientQueen]

Phil, that is just an opinion. Like mine, that especially on TITN Stevies songs were either weak, or not written by her... while Christine wrote the future FM classics.

I agree. Christine was referring to the potential for harmonic versatility on the guitar and piano as compared to the bass and drums. This was not a dig at Stevie. Christine was, as usual, seeing herself as a band player.

Phil, do you even have the new album? I mean the Fleetwood Mac one.

It's damned good, and amazingly catchy.

Come in, out of the darkness.

What successful songs on TITN did she write? Certainly not Seven Wonders.

She's a songwriter like Christine and Lindsey, nor better nor worse.

Too bad she can't out-play an instrument. If she could, she would be perfect.

Phil, old boy, you really don't like the Buckingham McVie album and on several occasions you've made extremely rude comments about Stevie.

Why are you still on here? ...and I don't mean to come across as rude about this
