And, you're completely omitting the "Bob Welch years"...there've actually been something like 15 incarnations of the band. The
Rumours lineup being #10.
#1: Green, Spencer, Fleetwood, Brunning
#2: Green, Spencer, Fleetwood, J McVie
#3: Green, Spencer, Fleetwood, J McVie, Kirwan
#4: Spencer, Fleetwood, J McVie, Kirwan
#5: Spencer, Fleetwood, J McVie, Kirwan, C Perfect
#5B: Fleetwood, J McVie, Kirwan, C Perfect, Green, Watson
#6: Fleetwood, J McVie, Kirwan, C McVie, Welch
#7: Fleetwood, J McVie, C McVie, Welch, Weston, Walker
#8: Fleetwood, J McVie, C McVie, Welch, Weston
#9: Fleetwood, J McVie, C McVie, Welch
#10: Fleetwood, J McVie, C McVie, Buckingham, Nicks
#11: Fleetwood, J McVie, C McVie, Nicks, Burnette, Vito
#12: Fleetwood, J McVie, Burnette, Vito
#13: Fleetwood, J McVie, C McVie, Burnette
#14: Fleetwood, J McVie, Burnette, Bramlett, Mason
#14B: Fleetwood, J McVie, Burnette, Bramlett, Mason, C McVie
Then here we revert back to #10
#15: Fleetwood, J McVie, Buckingham, Nicks

From the blog:
Fun fact: Since they were founded in 1967, Fleetwood Mac has had more lineup changes while retaining the same name than any other rock and roll band. True story

And, that's not "true story" at all, either. I can name THREE bands off the top of my head that top Fleetwood Mac for lineup changes, and I'm sure there are more:
Savoy Brown
Deep Purple
Jethro Tull
