Christine McVie, the vocalist and keyboard player who helped define classics like "You Make Loving Fun," "Everywhere" and "Don't Stop," has died.
She died on the band's social media accounts. She died peacefully in the hospital this morning with family around her after a short illness, according to a family statement.
The band said that she was one-of-a-kind, special and talented.
McVie was a constant presence and personality in the band, which was known for its constant lineup changes and volatile personality.
From 1975 to 1980, the band sold tens of millions of records and was an ongoing source of fascination for fans. McVie herself had been married to bassist John McVie, and their break up was documented on the 1977 release "Rumours."
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame honored the band in 1998. The group had a number of hit singles.
