Actually that scenario would give more weight to Brunning being a member as he would have replaced John McVie who had LEFT!!!
We agree on this. At least as far as I can tell. In my opinion, it goes as follows: McVie, Brunning, McVie. Brunning should absolutely be considered a member of Fleetwood Mac. I don't dispute that for a moment.

You may have a point that the instrumenal Fleetwood Mac might be stretching it a little, but those were the original core members that would eventually form Fleetwood Mac the band, so I consider it a Fleetwood Mac song, not a Bluesbreakers tune.
