I had to go with Lindsey in this one. He has the edge of being both a musical genius and hot.

I didn't know who he was, but I became aware of his name before I heard of FM, because I had a Jackson 5 album from like 1972 with Feelin' Alright on it and I was reading the liner notes. It actually had him down with them as writers, but they often would list the performer as a co-writer in those days.

I like Dave Mason's older solo work (before FM). It isn't that I dislike him, I just didn't like his work with FM as much as songs I had already heard from him.

Dont' forget though that while Brunning doesn't have the recognition he certainly has a similar level of output to Mason. He's got about 12 albums to his name even without counting the Tramp albums...a similar number to Billy Burnette. At a quick flick through my iTunes show I have about 19 Mason albums, but if you take out the live/rehashed albums it drops to about the same as Brunning and Burnette.

EDIT

Oh and if you take facebook as a quick poll (and you probably shouldn't) about the relative popularity of Mr Mason vs Mr Brunning - the Dave Mason official page has 10581 fans, the only Brunning related group is mine, which has a grand total of 6 members - including myself, wetcamelfood and chiliD off of here!

Now would be a great time for anyone who has it to post the promo-ad for the '75 Fleetwood Mac album that has a photo of the band, and under Lindsey's picture, he is identified as 'Stevie Nicks'
Pretty sure it was a full page ad in Rolling Stone.

I saw that too. And Stevie was marked as "Lindsey Buckingham". All I can say is that it's the perfect example of when you assume, you make an ass out of you and me.
