Just thought I'd repost one of my favorite FM clips:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhKrA-Z68Cs As Robert Christgau says of "Lay it All Down" on Future Games: "These white blues (and hippie rockabilly) veterans shouldn't have to depend on new recruit Bob Welch's deftly metallized r&b extrapolation for rock and roll, but unless you count the studio jam, they do." |

Hey folks... Wendy and the Welch Warriors would love it if you would sign:

I agree! One view of this and you can see how energizing he could be on stage. You'll be missed, Bob!

I agree with the sentiment but I actually think all 15 members should be inducted.

But an INTEGRAL member, who was on five albums, writing, singing, arranging, and playing? Gimme a freaking break! One bitter member kept him out, and I don't care if it is my favorite member. He died, with it still bothering him, that he wasn't a member, and the person who kept him out should be ashamed.

As Steve Carr noted in one of his two books on the band, both Fleetwood and Christine Mcvie have gone on record as saying they felt Welch was more central to the band than even Peter Green. You can't undo acknowledgments like that without some people at least taking notice. Unfortunately, not enough people have... |

So, the RRHOF had intended for Bob to be included then???

I don't know now if this a thread about Bob's death and a tribute to him, or about just the RRHOF episode.
I don't know if in 1998 we had a thread about this episode that long. I do remember we talked about all the important missing members in the induction ceremony, but can't remember if we were that upset about Bob not being there or a member forcing the RRHOF to exclude him. I'm not sure is it's funny or unfair, that we have not discussed this while Bob was alive. Or at least I can't remember. And if we did, I'm sure it wasn't a 24 pages thread. It's impossible to be sure but I think that right now, wherever Bob is, he doesn't care anymore about that RRHOF induction. And I hope this does not sound shocking but, what happens is that I find so ironic to talk about this now... But if I had posted a poll before that induction,, who do you prefer to be included, Christine or Bob? (or Lindsey or Bob? Stevie or Bob?..) in any case I'm sure Bob had not won. Once again, Robert Lawrence Welch, guitarist and songwriter, born 31 July 1946; died 7 June 2012. Rest in Peace please.

I've been reading all the posts and find this all interesting, but perhaps a new thread discussing the RRHOF controversy is needed? Maybe moving certain posts to that hypothetical thread?
