I daresay that statement actually lends us to getting back on topic. If Christine wrote more "hits"... then doesn't that stand to reason that her songs are capable of being (if not flat out) responsible for more sales? Tango In The Night for example was the band's biggest seller (other than Rumours) and it had tons of "Chris hits." Now then, go look at the current line up and Say You Will... the album sales weren't a runaway, though the tour was a giant. I'd say without Christine, the band as a whole has suffered, and Stevie still being in the band hasn't kept the group elevated the enough to maintain the "success" you keep referring to. It's all of them equally. Not just Stevie.
