I was a bit shocked when I heard she'd passed away. Thought one of the others would have gone before her. Even more shocked when I heard that she was 79. You just don't realise famous people's ages some times.
Never thought much of 'Songbird' - a bit bland for me tbh, but thought/think, 'You Make Loving Fun' was/is a really great song. She wrote both, of course.
She was such a crucial member of the post Peter Green group & fully helped the group to reinvent itself.
RIP CM.

No argument from me with that one mate.

The Chain is literally a 'cutting room floor' song, rejected parts of other songs spliced together.

Sad news, Rumours is a fantastic album, so is Albatross released as Fleetwood Mac and Chistine Perfect.
I love their version of I'd Rather Go Blind.

RIP.
