Christine McVie DEAD

[Peekaboo]

Devastated. She was the PERFECT English counterbalance to Stevie and Lyndsey's American BRASHNESS. And her compositions for the Mac were generally underrated, even by the band themselves at times.

They're all dying all the cool cats

 

[Heppje]

Always loved this.

 

[Funky]

Oh GOD

I'm currently in (thanks to moopy and thanks to just revisiting them generally this year) the biggest Fleetwood Mac phase I think I've ever had, so this doesn't seem real. I guess I always thought in the back of my mind that ONE DAY I would see them live, and with Lindsey out and now Christine gone it will never ever happen. And it probably shouldn't now.

And Stevie did NOT just quote Haim's Hallelujah as a tribute

RIP to a legend

I never saw Christine live either. Big regret

Ugh I’m so emotional about all this. Crying to songbird on the bus earlier

 

[Ill Advised]

I am very much enjoying this picture though

There’s a Christine documentary on bbc 4 right now

There’s a Christine documentary on bbc 4 right now

Is that a repeat of the one from about a year or two ago? It's very good, if so.

This interview from June this year is a bit now

Christine McVie On Her New Solo Collection 'Songbird,' Uncertain Future of Fleetwood Mac

Listen to her new version of the 1976 Fleetwood Mac classic “Songbird” where the original vocal track has been paired with a new string arrangement

www.rollingstone.com

Mick Fleetwood has been open about his hopes to see the Rumours-lineup come back together for a grand farewell tour, but McVie is highly dubious. “I don’t feel physically up for it,” she says. “I’m in quite bad health. I’ve got a chronic back problem which debilitates me. I stand up to play the piano, so I don’t know if I could actually physically do it. What’s that saying? The mind is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

It is. Its a great documentary, and nice to hear the story of Fleetwood Mac from her perspective too.

I’d never seen it before. It’s great so far

 

[Jark]

Little Lies is the song I'm going back to currently. she just sounds so smooth. a great understated vocalist.

 

[VoR]

The combination of her lead and Stevie's BVs on Little Lies is just magical.

 

[Ill Advised]

This was nice

 

[Jark]

Songbird is definitely right at the EDGE of Harriet's RANGE.

Yeah he was definitely straining it in places

[jivafox]

Their album together was great.

 

[VoR]

It was supposed to be a Fleetwood Mac album until Stevie & Lindsey fell out AGAIN, wasn’t it?

 

[jivafox]

It was

And technically it is because they all appear on it apart from her.

 

[GNL]

Just graft some 24-carat gold tracks on there and pretend.

At least she'll always have Moopy Fleetwood Mac singles survivor.

I had a listen to the Buckingham McVie album earlier. This one is lovely.

There's one where they're holding plastic wine glasses with 'SEXY' written on them (but also )
