So, Mama is waxing nostalgic for sure, but she's not throwing Mick and John or the Fleetwood Mac banner under the bus by any stretch of the imagination.
I totally agree with you that she is reciting this as a a sweet reflection on how and where Lindsey and her came together (muscially and otherwise) and how the song was conceived from a time where just playing music and sharing a stage with her idols was just about enough to make her happy. And maybe a little "the way we were" nod to Lindsey too.
