That's a hard task -- the 1980's were very productive for the Mac family - 11 albums in one decade.
Fleetwood Mac - Live, Mirage, Tango in the Night

Stevie Nicks - Bella Donna, Wild Heart, Rock a Little, Other Side of the Mirror

Lindsey Buckingham - Law and Order, Go Insane

Christine McVie - self-titled

Mick Fleetwood - The Visitor

I'd go insane trying to narrow the list down!

Yeah her singing on that song is marvelous, so rhythmic. It won't make my top TEN of the mac 80s but i had to consider it. i'm still trying to decide whether or not to include lindsey's genius vocal on Time Bomb Town!

:laugh:, maybe a bit, but there're just too much songs that i love. 80's were a good era for Fleetwood Mac members. Or, at least, a well-filled one !

Yeah! A reason for me to post something! ;)

I love Fleetwood Mac's 80's stuff. Tango in the Night has that great "80's" sound to it.

I'm compiling my list right now but am I the only one who would put Seven Wonders in there>> Seriously?! It kicks ass!

"Seven Wonders" is in my top five FM of all time. :D

Wrong. If you wanted to be nice, you'd make it a top 50, if not top 100. :nod: Clearly you enjoy inflicting pain upon us with such harsh restrictions. :laugh:
