ha..He WAS just asked to join the band

but to answer what I think you meant...I doubt it. I'm not saying Stevie is the end all, be all. I just think it was the chemistry and personalities of those 5 people that made it.

Defenatly. I don't think both Stevie and Lindsey could of wrote the songs of the frist few albums with out each other, be it indirect at times.

I don't think Fleetwood Mac would have been as successful as they were without Stevie Nicks. She brought and continues to bring charisma, mystery and romance to the group. She is a big bundle of talent and she knows how to work an audience I am thankful that Lindsey loved her enough to bring her into the fold when they asked him to join Can't ya tell I am a Stevie fan

Nope. Fleetwood Mac needs her. Just like they need everyone else. They all work so well together. It's just a perfect match :-)

I would say that Stevie gave Fleetwood Mac the style and mysterious vibe that the band is known for. She gave them their only #1 single "Dreams." I think that says it all.

Yeah, that's a bit of a sore spot with me as well. Seven Wonders isnt bad though.

For me it was the chemistry of those 5, as well as those three voices together, that made FM special to me.
Can't say I feel that stevie was the main musical force but maybe she was the main "live" force for a while there ....

"Little Lies" is good, 'specially Stevie's part.
I even like "When I See You Again". "Seven Wonders" is probably my least fave of all her singles. Whatever.
