Now, I see it the other way around. She released all of one album prior to the Mac, they had released twelve studio albums and a Greatest Hits album. She was a nobody when she joined Fleetwood Mac, they were popular enough to play on television. Oh, and Christine McVie had the most hits in the band, including the first hit single. Fleetwood Mac made Stevie a star, not the other way around.

Back in the day before Buckingham Nicks joined the Mac, Fleetwood Mac were an unbelievably good band.
Buckingham Nicks were also unbelievably good.
Maybe, but Fleetwood Mac had the record contract, whereas Buckingham Nicks got dropped after one album. The Mac were popular enough to have recently (at that time) been on television and they had gotten extensive coverage in music mags. Not to mention the big hits they had in Europe during their early years.

So, then, Lyndsey, &, Stevie joined the Mac, well.....you do know what happened next.
Nevermind. The fact that you can't spell Lindsey says all I need to know.
