Note also that 10 mins was edited out by the YouTube channel that posted it, to circumvent a copyright take-down. But yes I think the time warp from Tango to Clinton inaugration was probably as per the original. It's also possible that the documentary makers included a part about those years/albums but they were edited out for time. All in all, way too much Stevie footage in this and not enough of Chris. Yes the cameras would have predominately been on Stevie over the years but it's not like there wouldn't have been ample footage of Chris to show.

As for the somewhat anti-Lindsey sentiment, it's just unfortunate that the documentary was produced during the "era" of that 2018 lineup. In her comments on the current lineup and Lindsey's firing/absence, you can tell from her voice and what she says that she's just working with the cruddy situation that got handed to her. Had her interview been filmed a bit later after that lineup had fizzled out to its inevitable demise, I'm sure she would have mentioned a more staunch position that the Rumours five are the best lineup. As it stands, it may as well have been produced by Irving Azoff.

I think it's sad that Billy didn't get more of a mention considering the key role he played with Chris in the 80s, in both her solo band and Mac. Perhaps if they'd cut out one minute of footage of Stevie spinning they would have found time for it.

Not enough John either. Yes he doesn't interview as well as the others but without him there'd be no Chris in Fleetwood Mac.

I just pictured an alternate timeline where Chris stayed as housewife/tourwife and never joined the band. Bob Welch presumably would have kept them going for a few years. And Mick still would have stumbled onto Buckingham Nicks. Just imagine all those amazing Chris songs we would have missed out on. Without Chris the White Album mightn't have done a great deal better than the Buckingham Nicks album.
