I don't know about that. There's a feel to the songs that Mick and John bring, and it really doesn't matter who's fronting the band, that is the stamp of the band. I mean, the song "Talkin' To My Heart" from "Time" has a feel to it that is unmistakably Fleetwood Mac.
It also works in reverse. Compare "Crystal" or "Don't Let Me Down Again" from Buckingham Nicks to the Fleetwood Mac versions of those songs. While there's similarity, one is clearly NOT Fleetwood Mac.
