Does Stevie Nicks dislike Billy Burnette? Does Stevie Nicks like soymilk? Does Stevie Nicks still embroider stars on Lindsey's jeans?

Just out of curiosity, why would anybody care what Stevie thinks of Billy? In any case, I've never heard/read Stevie say anything at all negative about him and she had worked on her solo material (Rock a Little) as well as with the band.
Anyway, this is the first I've heard of Buckingham wanting a second guitarist, but if they had taken on a second guitarist before LB's departure, Burnette would have been a logical choice - given his collaborations with the various members of the band. Also, it was always my understanding that part of the reason that two new members were brought onboard is because Billy is an excellent songwriter but is by no means a lead guitarist. While Rick is definitely more guitarist than songwriter and both had been friends and had worked together before. As for Burnette's "Rockabilly" style, that may be his primary sound, but he is entirely capable of playing just about anything and playing it well. But regardless of what anybody thinks of Burnette and Vito's talents, the fact is they never really stood a chance. It's a rare band indeed that can lose such a key member - not just a guitarist, but also singer, songwriter and producert - and not suffer on the charts. Though the complete inflexibility of a certain sub-group of Fleetwood Mac's fanbase doesn't help matters. |

What if Billy Brunette ate too much laxative? Would he have a poo onstage? |

I dunno. But I'm pretty sure that one dude from Pearl Jam would've.

I liked Rick little bit more than Billy....like someone said it was Billy's style that I didn't like much.....but to each his or her own. We all like what we like....thats not good or bad it just is.....I don't think they did horrible when they replaced Lindsey but.....oh well.....I just can't believe thats like 22yrs ago in '87....thats the yr I graduated HS....wow.....time sure flies.....it seems like yesterday still......

Had Rick and Stevie left by the time Love Shines was recorded?

I believe they both had left. Maybe it's an alheimer's moment, but I think there's video of Love Shines, somewhere, and it's Chris, Billy, Mick, and John, in it. I've not seen it for years though, so I could be mistaken!

Yes there is, I've seen it on VH1 Classic once or twice. I wonder how that lineup could have held up? Obviously not very well performing the classics, but in the studio they could have been very much like the Bob Welch era, only with more of a Country/Rockabilly influence than Jazz. Definitely would have been interesting. Love Shines is quite different to the Chris style I'm used to, although I can't quite decide why.
