Christine (Perfect) McVie Passed Away


Sgt. Pepper

Recommended Posts

The keyboard player and singer of Fleetwood Mac passed away, she was 79. It says she dies peacefully at the hospital. Since none of us have died, and came back from the dead, I think that is a pretty ridiculous statement since none of us know what feels like to die, yet. I'm gonna rock Songbird as it is one of my favorite FM songs other that the ones Lindsey did.

RIP

I think it just means she wasn't screaming in pain, writhing in the bed, and such.

My Mom laid down and took a nap, there was no sign of any struggle and such.

We like to think she died peacefully.

A great loss, Christine was a great songwriter, arguably the best one in Fleetwood Mac.  I feel Britain and the World has lost two Queens this year.

One of my favourite songs from here 2017 collaboration with Lindsey Buckingham:

RIP Christine.

The only woman in that band I had any use for.  Sad news for sure.

Rest In Peace dear lady.  Say "hi" to Dennis for us.

What about Stevie, some one has to hold the tambourine, and wear weird clothes on stage. She is lucky Lindsey gave Mick an ultimatum that its both of us or neither of us. She might have eventually had a music career, but on her second album with FM (after being a nobody in CA with Lindsey) she was now a massive star and most dudes wanted to sleep with her.

Never liked Stevie and I think I like about 3 of her FM songs and none of her solo work. Edge Of 17, L & L, and the one Tom Petty wrote are her only solo songs I can name. I really can’t stand FM in any iteration. They just bore me, and that includes the Peter Green days, and the Bob Welsh days. I like LB and some of his FM stuff, but I would rather hear LB on his own. He is an amazing finger picker.
