Fleetwood Mac: вЂWeвЂ™ll burn in hell if we donвЂ™t play GlastonburyвЂ™.Ample proof along with many other fine songs such as 1972вЂ™s mellow and much loved вЂњSentimental LadyвЂќ (which Welch later re-recorded as a solo artist with great success) that even as the band foundered commercially, artistically the Bob Welch era wasnвЂ™t always the barren netherworld of popular myth. WelchвЂ™s finest Mac moment was the jazzy, noiresque вЂњHypnotizedвЂќ from the Mystery to Me album, featuring Christine McVieвЂ™s ghostly harmonies over WelchвЂ™s dreamy vocal. It was Welch who eventually replaced the departed Peter Green in 1971 and who, along with Christine McVie laid the soft rock foundations that would blossom fully when his departure in 1974 paved the way for Buckingham and Nicks to join. She stood at the crossroads of her life and poured all her doubts and fears into one cathartic song shortly afterwards came the wholly unexpected invitation to join Fleetwood Mac.Д«ob Welch is a significant figure in Fleetwood MacвЂ™s history, seen in many quarters as the saviour of the band. Nicks was considering giving music up altogether. When Nicks wrote this emotional and reflective ballad the previous year, the duoвЂ™s sole album had bombed and their relationship was failing.

On joining Fleetwood Mac in 1975 Buckingham and Nicks brought several songs with them, including вЂњLandslideвЂќ, one of NicksвЂ™s most personal songs, and an enduring live showcase for her talents.
