Rick Vito: Rattlesnake Shake question

Is that the Traffic song "Hole In My Shoe" he does, the one written by Dave Mason? If so, then is this the first time somebody in Fleetwood Mac has covered a song by somebody who replaced them?

That's what I thought when I first saw the tracklist, but alas, no it is NOT the Dave Mason song.

I don't know if that's the same song, although (edit) now I see that it isn't

However there was a similar scenario when Danny Kirwan covered Dave Walker's "Look Around You" for his 1976 album "Midnight In San Juan" - and a cracking song it is too

I'm not sure if Dave ever recorded the song, but I think it dated from the time when they were in Hungry Fighter together, about 1974.
