I SO agree. For my money all 3 writers were playing their A games during Fleetwood Mac/Rumours, but for each of the following 3 albums 2 of 3 writers were still on their A game while 1 of 3 stumbled: Christine's efforts on Tusk pale with her work on other albums. Lindsey stumbled on Mirage, probably as a reaction to all the criticism he got in regards to Tusk. Then Stevie faltered on Tango.
