I love Mick! I think he's a fantastic drummer. In 2018 he rocked the house. He's an important personality to the band and put some great FMac incarnations together.
When I listen to the full catalog, I realize just how good McVie/McVie/Fleetwood are!! No matter what was thrown at them comp wise, they could hang and get the job done in an interesting and moving way. Mick is why we have a history of this band and why it's kept going for so long. I recently listened to his drumming on Heroes and it's just fantastic.
Am I disappointed that he sold out to Nick$ mgmt. Of course. But I don't think anyone had a choice because of how powerful her cult has/had become.
I'm grateful to get a long beautiful history of albums, concerts and shows. And yes, $tevie Nicks, ruined the band.
