What, Blow By Blow isn't a Fleetwood Mac song?

Really, he had enough popular songs from his own career. In a 10-11 song set, he only got a couple, and one that often got played was also one that was relevant to Bekka.

But Mick and John are playing the parts they came up with on the original songs. How can they be covering themselves?

So then, do you think Stevie's recording of 'Crystal' is a cover?

If Lindsey went out on a solo tour and started singing You Make Loving Fun, or Stevie went out and played Go Your Own Way, that'd be a little different.. but..
I don't think any of them are covers.

The only song that is really in the gray is, ironically, "Dear Mr. Fantasy" since Dave wasn't on the original Traffic version (though WAS on the album), but was on a live version released by Traffic a few years later, although the Mac version was a completely different arrangement.
