That's often so forgotten.

What’s sad is for all his talent he was maybe the one significant songwriter who really couldn’t figure out how to incorporate any of the Fleetwood-McVie-McVie groove into his own songs on the albums (live was a different story). Maybe Christine would be on organ, but never piano or electric piano on his songs. Hell, after Rumours, you’re lucky to hear John on any of his songs (maybe Book of Love, Eyes of the World, and the end section of TITN), at least until SYW.
