Zhan_Zhuang Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) Sad to hear Christine McVie has passed... Quite liked Fleetwood Mac and as a Beach Boys / Dennis Wilson fan I know and have read a little of their connection which from a musical point of view is rather interesting. McVie and Wilson dated for a few years late 70's early 80's and worked together on music which has never seen the light of day. Although she wrote a song called 'Only Over You' from 'Mirage' in 1982. Lindsey Buckingham also wrote a song about Dennis called 'D.W Suite' from 'Go Insane' in 1984. @rjw63 likely also knows of this...

Also Dennis's best pal Ed Roach is a friend of mine on Facebook, he was there with his camera documenting this relationship and whole lot more from around 1970. He has a book coming out next year, it will be a must - buy for us, and if he's doing anything special for friends I'll let you know. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Very sad. The majority of my favorite Mac songs were hers. Such a nice mellow vocal style. I also didn't know she was that old but the years don't slow down do they? Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mottaloo Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Fleetwood Mac remind me of my ex father in law who is (or was*) a word removed. They were/are his favourite band so by default, i see FM as words removed too. My condolences to the McVie family, by the way. (*could be dead, fingers crossed. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
