Little Lies was a huge hit at the time, but it hasn't endured the way SYLM and YMLF have.

That was definitely my feeling re: Tango in the Night. Those songs don't have the same pull as the older classics. One can even argue that there are no classic songs on Tango in the Night, and I'm saying that as someone who loves Little Lies and has a European sensibility in music.
The reason I expanded my list was that I originally ranked Oh Well together with Albatross as a nod to Peter Green for a single spot on a ranked list. I did have a line on that list, so it was essentially a top 10. I do think Sara should be on the list, and I'm curious to see what U.S.-based people come up with. Again, here is what I have for Rumours-era only:
1. Landslide
2. The Chain
3. Go Your Own Way
4. Rhiannon
5. Dreams
6. Gold Dust Woman
7. Gypsy
8. Sara
9. Don't Stop
10. Say You Love Me
