Where does Fleetwood Mac rank among the greatest bands?

I do agree that they have stood the test of time greatly. In my personal social circle they are without a doubt the most recognizable through their music. My friends would absolutely recognize Landslide before their rivals, except maybe Hotel California. As for the bands even further back, it is hard to determine what makes a band the greatest. When I take casual fans and introduce them to Storms or Bleed to Love Her. They are always surprised, that would be Fleetwood Mac's flaw. That their popular music pales in comparison to the deeper cuts. The Dance was a universal success and perhaps the only reason people generated enough interest for further projects. They need that now, kind of a final test to their legacy. They need a new Dance to show the current generation that they are more than Landslide and Go Your Own Way. All personal conflict and story aside.
