I'm a pretty new fan, but I somehow sensed that her not being there just wasn't right. So I picked up all the Welch era stuff plus some Steive/Lindsey era stuff and have come to the conclusion that I'm not interested in Fleetwood Mac at all without her. Their lame new single "Say You Will" worsens the situation.
Lindsey wrote some good tracks, and Stevie would sometimes have the 1 or 2 powerhouse tracks on the albums, but Christine is the most consistant pleaser out of all of them. Plus, I believe she had the most hits for the band. Don't Stop, You Make Lovin' Fun, Everywhere, Little Lies, and Hold Me are probably the Mac's most recognizable tracks, not to mention Say You Love Me and the less popular Think About Me.
Plus, she plays the keyboards and yeah, she is adorable. She's not a knockout beauty like Stevie but she has a really adorable natural beauty to her, although I have seen some pretty raunchy pictures of her. We all have bad days though.  Overall though she just seems like a really nice, down to earth person.
My favorite shot in the Dance is when she sings the "well I wish you were busy with mine" line from Temporary One when she shrugs her shoulders, like she's really bummed that somebody's not paying enough attention to her.  It makes you wanna give her a hug.

Once again, I completely agree with everything Eric said. I think the reason she's been so overlooked is because she always let her work speak for herself. She's never been one to draw attention to herself, which I've always liked. She's a class act. The only thing Eric missed was her first solo album & her Chicken Shack stuff. Those were also pretty great, too.
And, Everywhere was definitely a hit. It got up to #14 on the singles charts. I still hear it on the radio from time to time.
