I was watching non-LB Fleetwood Mac clips on YouTube yesterday (early years + Billy & Rick videos) and the band sounded great so I don't think the little kick in the butt that Waddy would give them would hurt...

I'm specifically talking about having Waddy on there without Lindsey. It's not about whether he's good enough it's about Lindsey is the band's guitarist, Waddy is not. Lindsey had a very distinctive style at that. This is a band album. We might as well just put together a compilation of solo tracks if we're going to start using whoever and call it Fleetwood Mac. Its one thing for Waddy to add an additional guitar part and a totally different thing for him to be the only guitarist on the song. It's not just a guest appearance if he's replacing Lindsey as the guitarist.

Also, if indeed they are recording for FM and it's Stevie's decision to leave Lindsey out of it, how would that be keeping the peace? There's no way Lindsey's just like "whatever".

Hopefully, the end game is to have Lindsey involved. Honestly, I doubt Christine would be involved if the rest of the band weren't going to also be involved at some point.
