Last time I checked, when Christine first started playing with the band, they were still doing blues songs.
Hell, she was still singing Get Like You Used To Be and Jumpin' At Shadows in the early days of Lindsey and Stevie, and even did Roll With Me Henry in the early days of Billy and Rick. Christine didn't wreck anything.

Unless, of course, they're referring to Lindsey as a girl, in which case I'd agree. But, if we're going to blame anybody for turning Fleetwood Mac in to pop, we really have to blame Danny Kirwan. It was all his fault. I mean, how else can we explain Fleetwood Mac's transition away from such great blues-rock numbers like Albatross or Man Of The World? (EXTRA heavy on the sarcasm, there.)
