She seemed like the least troubled of the group.

A rock and roller singer making it to age 79 puts her in the top 1% of rock and rollers.

Even though Stevie sings it...
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I’m getting older too
Oh! I’m getting older too

This hurts. Had a mini crush on her over the years. Such a talent who NEVER got the recognition she deserved.

Every time I hear Fleetwood Mac I am reminded of the DNC/Clinton convention in 1992. As far as I am concerned, America’s downward trajectory accelerated after that event.

Her song/singing just became popular again with the Chevy EVs commercials.

“i always thought she was a better singer than Stevie Nicks.”

They were so totally different, that I don’t think a comparison can be made. The hard throatiness of Nicks and the sweet softness of McVie are two entirely different styles.

I enjoyed listening to both of them.

I don’t know about that. She cheated on her bandmate husband, and the wrote songs about it. That’s pretty messed up.

RIP.

This was a big surprise as I have been listening to a lot of Fleetwood Mac lately. Always one of my favorite all time bands. Had no idea she was this old, though she has been with the band almost since the very beginning (well before Stevie and Lindsey joined).

Her maiden name was Perfect, sort of like her voice.

Definately ‘under rated’ as a songwriter.
