I really think that the best lineup is: Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie, John McVie, and Mick Fleetwood. They obviously were doing something right. They had the most success together, and I can see why!

Several people had listed a lineup without Christine and Stevie. I don't see how that could be really beneficial. They are two of the best songwriters ever, and not to mention their other talents. Without them, Fleetwood Mac wouldn't have had nearly as many awesome songs to sing nor would the guys have been as inspired to write their songs(seeing that many of their songs are about Stevie and Christine). On the same hand, Christine and Stevie--being in the group--inspired them to write many of their best songs. These people have the perfect chemistry together.

I say why mess with perfection!
