Should Bob Brunning be regarded as a member of Fleetwood Mac?
Yes Bob Brunning was a member of Fleetwood Mac, I don't think that point can really be argued, but should he be really be considered as such?
For my part I think that he should, for without Bob Brunning there might not be a Fleetwood Mac, perhaps Peter having failing to convince McVie to join and having failed to recruit a bass player (remember that Bob was the only one who replied to the Melody Maker ad), might have decided to give the whole idea away and finish his butcher's apprenticeship...

I agree that he should be considered a member. If he had not joined, there may have been no Fleetwood Mac. So I should say 'Thanks Bob!!!"

Bob can be considered the most brief member of Fleetwood Mac. Blink a minute, and you'll miss him. In comparison, Dave Walker could be considered a long-term member.

What is, IS. He WAS a member of Fleetwood Mac, fact, game over.
It's not like he's some "dwarf planet" whose definition can be changed by some panel of scientist geeks. (Sorry, Pluto, couldn't resist)

Well from what I have understood, they wanted John - but he passed. They got Bob and then John said "Okay." So if Brunning was there first, John can't be considered an "original" member - as he is always referred to as along with Mic.
Of course some think of Stevie and Lindsey as "original" members!! |
