In a 1992 interview with Timothy White for Billboard, Lindsey mentioned that he and Stevie had agreed to go into the studio with Fleetwood Mac to contribute to some new material.
We've since learned that the basic tracks for "Paper Doll" were recorded circa 1988, when the song was being considered for inclusion on 'Greatest Hits' (Mick preferred "No Questions Asked" though).
It's possible that Stevie overdubbed some new vocals for the 'Chain' version, but, at the very least, Lindsey definitely overdubbed some backing vocals to the track.
I assume he's only singing though, and not also contributing to the guitar parts.
"Love Shines" and "Heart Of Stone" were both recorded with Chris, Mick, John and Billy Burnette as the only members.
I don't hear either Lindsey or Stevie on "Love Shines," but I do hear Stevie on "Heart Of Stone," so her backing vocals must have been added later, per Lindsey's statement that he and she had both agreed to contribue in some way to the new songs.
Rick stated in his Q&A, that "Paper Doll" is the only new song on 'The Chain' that he's playing on.
Lindsey's track ("Make Me A Mask") was a leftover from the 'Out Of The Cradle' sessions, and I think it's pretty safe to assume that he's the only member playing on that track.
