"inkling", last time we talked that there was anything wrong...But ....at our age....... Bob WAS a wonderful guy, funny, and a very good guitar player....Like I was with John Carter's death.........I was not prepared for Bob to go in his 60's. Love to you Bob!!! !....On the "astral" plane ;-) Bob Welch

I was shocked when I heard. 64 is way too young! RIP Bob, we'll never forget you!

Thank you for this! It might be early in Weston's career but that stinging guitar sound is still there. Excellent.

That sure was a young Bob Weston. Any chance of retrieving audio/video material by The Kinetic. Sounds very nice 60's music to my ears. Who else was in this band?

Times Series (UK)
http://www.times-series.co.uk/news/9...Mac_guitarist/ By Natalie O'Neill Tributes paid to ex-Fleetwood Mac guitarist Bob Weston4:10pm Friday 13th January 2012 HEARTFELT tributes have been paid to ex-Fleetwood Mac guitarist Bob Weston who has died aged 64. Bob, who was a member of the band in the Seventies, was found dead at his home in Brent Cross on January, 3. Musician and electronics engineer, Steve Fairhead first met Bob in the early Nineties when they both lived in Brighton. Speaking to the Times Series Mr Fairhead said: “Bob came to live with my family for about nine months in 2007. My wife was a little bit worried because she didn’t know him terribly well, and she thought he might be this arrogant ex-rock star. But he charmed the socks off her and they winded up being firm friends. Bob was an absolute gentleman. “I can’t get my head round the idea he’s gone – I keep expecting to bump into him or see him at the weekend. “We shared a daft sense of humour and a sense of the absurd. He was gregarious and he was compassionate. He will definitely be missed – more than missed – my hearts broken.” Photographer Fin Costello first met Bob when he was photographing Fleetwood Mac in London in the early Seventies. He said: “He was seen as the wunderkind of the time and much talked about. “He was one of the great underrated guitarists of his time and great company as well. Lots of Rock and Roll tales. He and I had travelled the same road for many years so the sessions were long and entertaining.” Both Mr Fairhead and Mr Costello have received many emails mourning the loss of Bob. |

I heard about it last night- I'm more of a later era FM fan but there's plenty of the old stuff I love.
The Welch Era is a fun era for me, with bits of Christine, and mellow Welch stuff. I like a lot of the guitar work, e.g. Bare Trees, and Weston was always a great to me, although Lindsey and Kirwan will always be my fave FM guitarists. I'm saddened too. From all accounts he was a great guy. I hope he's having a great time wherever he is and he somehow feels all the great energy and memories about his life that's pouring out, as Viv alluded to. |
