Future Games, and Mystery to Me were my all time favorite Fleetwood Mac Albums followed by Bare Trees. Tremendous talent. Too bad.

Sad news indeed. Bob Welch was very talented, it was his departure from Fleetwood Mac that lead to Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks joining which lead to the bands greatest success. Actually the band only wanted Lindsey but had to take Stevie to because they were a duo (and a couple).

RIP Bob

Two versions of an absolutely beautiful song:

As a kid, I sang this song all the time with no idea of its meaning. I just knew it made me feel good, just as it does today.

Great songwriters give us gifts that last many lifetimes.

RIP Bob Welch

Bob definitely had his influence on the early FleetwoodMac.

My favorite Bob tune though was when he went solo. Is that Valerie's younger sister?
