This observation is only partially accurate, I think. Many of her songs on Mystery and Heroes are thickly produced, whereas her songs on Fleetwood Mac (1975) and Tusk are spare, sometimes even skeletal.
It's true that Lindsey and Chris go in for big production, however, on Mirage and Tango. But even then, the production choices seem more rewarding than the over-the-top sickly string arrangements on Come a Little Bit Closer and the horns from Heroes.
