Stevie Nicks Says Issues With Lindsey Buckingham Threaten Her Involvement With FM

What I meant was he rarely speaks in terms of the songs being a group effort. He has referred to his production of the songs, which could be taken as a slight to the other four members. I suppose though that the three writers have to be territorial to a point and can't say I blame them.

Well, except for The Chain, I don't think anyone often talks about the group work on the songs, but Lindsey has pointed out how Mick's drumming not only contributed to one of his Tusk songs, but was the reason for its creation. He describes how he and Mick did it together in the studio one night.

Of course, Stevie talks about Lindsey's work on her songs because he was acting as producer. But I'm not sure how he could begin to talk about her input on his songs or Christine's. There's the line in Oh Daddy, but other than that, I don't think she has any involvement in their songs, aside from her vocals. As for The Chain, he did recall how it was definitely her lyrics. He talked about everyone's work on the Chain but he did say that he honestly couldn't remember anything that Mick had contributed to that. He did talk about John, Christine and Stevie though.
