In the UK it was a different matter, of course.
I guess I have a different definition of "supergroup" than most. To me a "supergroup" is when members of different well-known groups join to form another band. (like CSNY, or Blind Faith, or Asia, etc)

Buckingham Nicks was for all intents an unknown entity when they joined Fleetwood Mac.
