Mixing relationships and business together can either be a disaster or lead to success. With Fleetwood Mac, although the breakups of band members John and Christine McVie as well as Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks created chaos, it lead to the creation of the hit album Rumours with hit singles “Go Your Own Way”, “Dreams”, “Don’t’ Stop” and “You...

I was up very early a few weeks ago, looking for the best from the farmers market. Back home, after a few hours chopping, poaching and frying, I had ten minutes to spare for a gin and tonic before Carol and Michael came for lunch. Or so I thought. After about an hour, doubt began to set in, so we re-read their email.... "Sounds great, look forward to seeing you... next Saturday"... Thank...

http://www.mediafire.com/?wiyztzdwzly I prefer this album over the Eric Clapton beano album (just) because it highlights John Mayall much more, showing how good he was on harp, piano, organ and guitar. The other factor is Peter Green! His simplicity of style and playing demonstrates that you do not need to play notes at a million miles an hour. The feeling he gets on many tracks from a single note,...

In case you don't get the references to "love" and "heart" on the front page I was trying to get the point across that the final cross country of the local season is on Valentines Day - it was either that or a reference to the next round of the FA Cup to try to get the date fixed in your mind. The irony is that I won't be there as I shall be in London with Marie. Not because its...

I've taken to reading back issues of music mags on my commute into work. And there's some fascinating/enlightening stuff. Mojo( May 1994 ) Tom Hibbert has a highly amusing article on the worst bands he's ever experienced ( circa 1969 ) He moves from Aardvark " the worst band I ever saw" to "the truly abysmal " Joe Jammer " and finishes off with the wish to have engraved on...

I was driving around my neighborhood recently and discovered this creepy looking house that the city is getting ready to move across town. Still not exactly sure why (seems demolishing it would be better), but it got me thinking: what other big structures have been moved and why? Here are five that have interesting histories. [...]

If you like your blues British this is for you. This features Peter Green's version of Fleetwood Mac, a completely different animal from the latter (some would say more popular version). This is the first volume of a 2 volume set recorded in late 1969. Guest musicians included blues legends Otis Span and Willie Dixon. Track list 01 "Watch Out" (Composed by Peter Green) 02 "Ooh Baby"...
