I love the albums from the Bob Welch years. That is my favorite era of Fleetwood Mac. I also had the real privilege of seeing Bob perform solo once, in Boston. I think it was in the late 1970s.
I had one brief email exchange with Bob. When he was communicating with fans through his website, I wrote him to mention another musician who has an interest in the occult, extraterrestrial life, UFOs etc. That other musician is Dave Davies from the Kinks. I thought that since Bob and Dave had a similar interest in this sort of thing, Bob might like to know that. He responded by saying he found the information very interesting, and I believe he said he'd try to contact Dave. Whether he ever did or not I have no idea. But it gave me a good feeling about him as a person, that he responded to a fan's comments with genuine interest. Being able to communicate with him through his website was a real privilege, one that most well known musicians wouldn't think of providing.

I really miss him, and it's sad for me to know I discovered his music shortly before his death...
2012. Ten years ago. With my sister fell in love with FM's music one year before, so we started to collect their music. We really loved Bare Trees as "the rare album" of FM without Lindsey or Stevie Nicks. We enjoyed it very well, so we decided to know more about the Welch days. We bought Penguin back then, and we really liked!! Bright Fire was just like "BOOOOM" in my head, even when my favourite there is Caught In The Rain. A few weeks later, Bob died. And then I read Bob Weston died before. And Bob Brunning. I was really sad, but more for Bob Welch. I heard Sentimental Lady and Ebony Eyes and I was very very empty. I can't believe it was all ten years before. I still feel it a bit fresh, like if it happened only two or three years ago! I miss him, but I must admit I laught a lot with his works on the 1995 documentary about the history of the band. A very nice guy! |
