I notice you have one glaring omission 
My list:
1. Mick Fleetwood
2. John McVie
3. Christine McVie
4. Stevie Nicks
5. Lindsey Buckingham
6. Peter Green
7. Bob Welch
8. Jeremy Spencer, Danny Kirwan, Billy Burnette
9. Bob Weston, Rick Vito |
My list was created based on impact on sound of the band. While Ms Nicks is a fantastic song writer with incredible star power, she did not impact the band with sound musically. She does not play an instrument and is not a producer. Her voice is unique and does have a sound though. The band changed over the years since 1967. 3 HUGE sound changes. 1 Christine joins 2 Bob Welch joins 3 Lindsey and Stevie join
If my list was with songwriters, she would be near the top. Even though Nicks had some huge hits with the Mac, the band would have still been successful without her if only Lindsey joined.
I should have described "important" when I made the list.
