Mick Fleetwood, John McVie and his missus, Christine, had been through myriad lineups before finding California couple Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Surmounting "cultural differences" (Buckingham's description), the group clicked, generating big radio songs such as "Say You Love Me" and "Rhiannon," and Buckingham contributed solid guitar work, arrangements and vocals that bridged the wildly divergent styles of McVie and Nicks. "We would get to know one another as friends only to a certain point," Buckingham remarked. But that didn't prevent them from going on to record 1977's Rumours [see No. 25], one of the biggest records ever.
