There’s a few songs about him, for sure,” she agrees. “ Never Make Me Cry. Yeah, a lot of them are about Dennis.” Mac’s original, increasingly troubled frontman Peter Green treats the listening public as a shoulder to cry on. Perhaps a more unsettling song in hindsight than it seemed at the time, the tune is beautiful, the arrangement almost ascetically stark and the lyrics full of dread: “I just wish I’d never been born.” 24.

Indeed, if a Fleetwood Mac album wasn’t beset by emotional turmoil then they would endeavour to create some. Christine McVie duly turned up to recording sessions in Hérouville, France, having recently ended her tempestuous relationship with Dennis Wilson; the bittersweet punch of “Hold Me” was her consolation, with “Only Over You” bearing a direct dedication to the wayward Beach Boy who was to drown the following year.If I’m being honest with you, this is not top of my list of favourite Fleetwood Mac albums. It’s a fairly commercial album, with some quite good commercial songs. I don’t think we were trying to make them commercial. Or maybe we were – maybe that was the trouble. Where on Rumours, we weren’t trying to do anything except write. That has soul, that album. That’s what leaps out of the grooves. And I don’t believe this one has to the same extent. There’s some great craftsmanship, some great songs – but it pays Rumours homage.” Your computer may be infected with malware or spyware that makes automated requests to our server and causes problems. It was supposed to be Neil Sedaka-esque,” McVie says of Oh Diane’s vintage style. “And Lindsey’s always been a huge fan of the Kingston Trio. He loves all that stuff – folk, early Elvis songs, slap bass, the Everly Brothers. He loves the harmonies.”

McVie had only recently left Dennis Wilson, the once golden but now burnt-out Beach Boy who would drown while drunk on December 28, 1983, a year after Mirage’s release. His self-destruction had been too extreme for her to tolerate. Her love songs on Tusk and Mirage were based on their difficult, full-on months together. Top Pop Albums of 1983".

By now, the story of Bob Welch is well told, and it is not a feel-good one. Arriving in Fleetwood Mac at their lowest, he had the unenviable task of radically reinventing the group’s sound, sometimes in opposition to other singer/guitarists who were hired for the same purpose. He allowed the band to survive and even thrive, set the template for their eventual success, and bowed out with enough momentum to establish the beginnings of a solid solo career.

The pressure from Warner was to make an album,” McVie remembers. “And of course they’re all praying for another Rumours. And I think that might have been quite a self-conscious decision we made, that we ought to go for something un- Tusky. It’s pointing a finger towards Rumours– one finger.

If Fleetwood Mac wobbled at the decade’s start, by 1987 they seemed almost as imperious as they had been circa Rumours thanks to songs such as Little Lies, co-written by McVie and her then-husband, Eddy Quintela. While the keyboardist-singer was keen to emphasise its blues roots, to everyone else it just sounded like impeccable pop music. 20. Seven Wonders (1987)
