I rather like that one. It was played a lot on UK radio at the time but I don't believe it charted here. Christine McVie quite noticeable on backing vocals. According to Wikipedia it also features Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood.
I didn't realise for a long time that Bob Welch had written it years earlier back in his Fleetwood Mac days (and that a longer version had appeared on the "Bare Trees" LP).



Heard this on the radio last week:

Starbuck - Moonlight Feels Right
Another UK did-not-chart, despite many plays on radio.
US #3 on the Billboard chart in 1976.
oh the sun is shining
and I'm on that road
