I have seen Fleetwood Mac several times, but only once with Christine in the band. 2018 I think it was, such a fabulous singer and far better than Stevie Nicks (who I also love).

I saw them in New Zealand with the complete 1975 line up which was the first time in 16 years they were Brilliant even in pouring rain.

Easily the best of Mac. Her heritage too is outstanding with Chicken Shack listen to
I would rather go blind
The last incarnation of Mac is a parody of the original imho

You're entitled to your opinion of course, but he left 52 years ago, and they've been quite successful since. Even Rumours was 7 years after Peter Green. :)

The Cat was being ironic, a bit of a pop at the 'things ain't what they used to be' mindset. I suspect he's been spending too long with ageing relatives and needs a release. :)

;) Original tends to be 'what we hear first or most of'

People swear that Genesis was a better band before Gabriel left. 8 years with Gabriel 47 with Collins
Original Fleetwood Mac: 3 years. Without Green 52 years
Pink Floyd much the same. Bands evolve.

Queen kept the same line up until Mercury's death.
The Police pretty much (I think they had 9 months with another member)

I wouldn't inherently argue that the latest line up of Fleetwood Mac were not a parody of the original, but I'm reasonably sure it wasn't the original that was being cited, rather the Rumours / Tusk / Mirage era.
