In 1977, Fleetwood Mac released their 11th studio album, Rumours<\/em> (left<\/em><\/strong>) . The album went on to be a name-making effort for the group and has continued to captivate audiences for nearly five decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While recording the landmark album, a storm was brewing behind the scenes. Throughout the process, the group was embroiled in a number of scandalous affairs\u2013largely with each other\u2013nearly killing the group at the height of their career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What caused such a rift? We\u2019re charting a course through Fleetwood Mac\u2019s complicated dating history that led to years of turmoil and lasting grudges\u2014not to mention one hell of an album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In 1975, Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham joined the group, completing the enduring line-up of Fleetwood Mac\u2014Mick Fleetwood, Christine McVie, John McVie, Nicks, and Buckingham (right)<\/em><\/strong>. Along with them, they brought Nicks\u2019 distinct songwriting and vocals and Buckingham\u2019s accomplished guitar playing. Buckingham championed his then girlfriend\u2019s admittance to the group, claiming they came as a package deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the time they started to record their landmark album Rumours<\/em>, the duo had experienced a breakdown in their relationship. Their on-again-off-again love affair began to take a toll while working together in such proximity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of the lyrics on the album are Nicks and Buckingham slapping each other on the wrist, sometimes playfully so, and others with deep-seated spite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tell me why<\/em>
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up is all you want to do<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Lindsey Buckingham (left)<\/em><\/strong> wrote the lyrics above for the group\u2019s first U.S. top ten hit, \u201cGo Your Own Way.\u201d Nicks told Rolling Stone<\/a>: \u201cI very much resented him telling the world that \u2018packing up, shacking up\u2019 with different men was all I wanted to do. He knew it wasn\u2019t true. It was just an angry thing he said. Every time those words would come out onstage, I wanted to go over and kill him. He knew it, so he really pushed my buttons through that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Lindsey also wrote \u201cSecond Hand News\u201d and \u201cNever Going Back\u201d about his band-mate, to which Nicks (right) responded with \u201cDreams.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now here you go again, you say you want your freedom
Well, who am I to keep you down?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s only right that you should play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound of your loneliness<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their relationship ended by the time the final touches were being made to Rumours<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Two years after joining the band, Nicks fell madly in love with founding member Mick Fleetwood, (left), a highly complicated affair given her then-relationship with Eagles drummer Don Henley and Fleetwood\u2019s marriage to Jenny Boyd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To add to Nicks and Buckingham\u2019s already tumultuous relationship, the guitarist briefly expressed concern that something was going on between Nicks (right)<\/em><\/strong> and Fleetwood while they were still dating. The accusation was quickly shut down by the pair\u2014unconvincingly so, given their romance a few years later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEventually I fell in love with her and it was chaotic, it was on the road and it was a crazy love affair that went on longer than any of us really remember\u2014probably several years by the end of it,\u201d Fleetwood wrote in his book Play On<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cdoomed relationship\u201d began to tear at the seams, ending Fleetwood\u2019s marriage to Boyd and causing a rift between him and Buckingham. \u201cNice of you to tell me. I appreciate it,\u201d the guitarist reportedly seethed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Founding Fleetwood Mac member John McVie married Christine and brought her into the band in 1970. After seven years of seemingly marital bliss, Christine began an affair with the band\u2019s sound engineer, Martin Birch. The pair ended up divorcing in 1976 but remain bandmates to this day, save for a hiatus for Christine in 1998.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite being adopted by Bill Clinton as a political vehicle, Rumours<\/em> track \u201cDon\u2019t Stop\u201d was written as closure to McVie\u2019s marriage. Christine said of the song, \u201c\u2018Don\u2019t Stop\u2019 was just a feeling. It just seemed to be a pleasant revelation to have that \u2018yesterday\u2019s gone.\u2019 It might have, I guess, been directed more toward John, but I\u2019m just definitely not a pessimist.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t stop thinking about tomorrow
Don\u2019t stop, it\u2019ll soon be here
It\u2019ll be better than before
Yesterday\u2019s gone, yesterday\u2019s gone<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Another track for the album, \u201cYou Make Lovin\u2019 Fun\u201d was written by Christine (left)<\/em><\/strong> as an ode to her affair. To \u201cavoid flare-ups\u201d she originally told John the song was inspired \u201cby their dog\u201d\u2014wonder if he believed that one with lyrics like <\/p>\n\n\n\n

you make loving fun<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t have to tell you but you\u2019re the only one<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In yet another shocking love affair from Fleetwood, the drummer embarked on a relationship with one of Nicks\u2019 best friends, Sara Recor (right)<\/em><\/strong> , following the loss of his marriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an interview with the Independent<\/a>, Nicks recalls the sense of betrayal she felt as news of the affair broke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWell, here\u2019s a big one for ya. I had started to see Mick Fleetwood romantically. I had a very dear friend whose name was Sara [Recor], who just went after Mick. And they fell in love, and the next thing, Sara\u2019s husband is calling me to say \u2018Sara moved in with Mick this morning. And I just thought you might wanna know,’\u201d said Nicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While all of this was kicking off, the group was deep into recording their 1979 double album Tusk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat was three months into a 13-month album,\u201d Nicks continued. \u201cSo I lost Mick, which honestly wasn\u2019t that big of a deal because that was a rocky relationship. But losing my friend Sara? That was a huge blow. Sara was banished from the studio by the rest of the band\u2026 No one was speaking, and I wouldn\u2019t even look directly at Mick. That went on for months. And it was great fodder for writing. The songs poured out of us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fleetwood and Recor eventually married\u2014a relationship that lasted seven years before their divorce in 1995.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite their myriad of affairs and betrayals, Fleetwood Mac has enjoyed a lasting career of over 50 years. Rumours went on to sell over 10 million copies within just a month of its release. It is still widely considered one of the best rock records of all time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band members\u2019 relationship toils don\u2019t end with their inter-group relationships though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nicks briefly married Kim Anderson, widower of her best friend Robin Snyder, in 1983. They split just a few months after their wedding, due to Nicks feeling Snyder\u2019s presence lingering around the couple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mick Fleetwood married his third wife Lynn Frankel in 1995 before divorcing in 2013. The couple share twin daughters, Ruby and Tessa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christine McVie married fellow keyboard player Eddie Quintela in 1986 but they too got divorced in 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John McVie and Lindsey Buckingham have both enjoyed lasting marriages to Julie Ann Reubens and Kristen Messner, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buckingham won a lawsuit against his former bandmates in 2018 after he was kicked out of the band, reportedly over disagreements about the band\u2019s touring schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, yes, yes, I hear you say. So martially, in the end it turned out not so bad. What about the music though? How has that fared? Well, the peak albums of Rumours and Tusk still get a good deal of radio playlisting and some tracks are regularly used for sampling for incidental music in cinema and tv.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The individual players have all released critically acclaimed and commercially successful albums, and one musical pairing, of Christine and Lyndsey, have released a couple of albums that sound a lot like the Americana music I was listening to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the time rumours was coming out I was twenty five or six and newly married. I was almost a grown up and was pretty sure I didn\u00b4t want to listen to start listening again to a band I had enjoyed in my  childhood, the first time they  had enjoyed hits, in the sixties. Two things drew me vack,\u2026well, three really: the fact that their hits of Albatross, Man Of The World and Green Manalishi were of a more mature nature than the rest of my frothy pop diet of the time, the second was a strange awareness of the work of Lindsey Buckingham,\u2026.and the third was that sharp, pointed never-let-you go hook of that guitar riff that went on to be the Formula 1 music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was also aware ofa rumour, oops, going round before the album of that tile had been released that Lindsey Buckingham had learned to play taught himself to play guitar from listening to John Stewart\u00b4s style of banjo playing in The Kingston Trio. Before Rumours came out I had a whole shelf of Kingston Trio albums, some featuring Dave Guard and others featuring the man who replaced him when he left, John Stewart. Also, long before Rumours came out, I heard a taped recording of John singing his own composition Daydream Believer that had been recorded by another great American Band The Monkees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wondering who this Lindsey Buckingham might be, I then heard stories about the new recruits to Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey Buckingham and his then girlfriend Stevie Nicks, They had had been signed after Mick Fleetwood heard them recording their debut album in a neighbouring studio to one he was recording in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had no idea how widespread this story might be and went in what I was sure would be a futile search for some sort of bootleg copy of that debut album. There it was, almost on my doorstep in George Davenport\u00b4s record shop up near the University on Oxford Road in Manchester. George drove a hard bargain, to recover some debts I had accumulated there, and it cost me an arm and a leg and a handful of lesser albums to acquire the eponymously titled Buckingham Nicks., (worth every album though) and certainly good enough to have me joining the throngs awaiting the new Fleetwood Mac release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was to one further simple twist of fate, for me, and that lay in the fact that after the success of Rumours Lindsey and >Stevie supported John Stewart in the recording studio. Bother were admirers of his half dozen or so albums made by then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nevertheless, Stevie\u00b4s advice to him was \u00b4let\u00b4s go and make some hits\u00b4 and her wonderful backing vocals and Lindsey\u00b4s incredible guitar playing could be clearly heard on tracks like (Turning Music Into) Gold and Runaway Fool Of Love and Spinning Of The World providing chart hits, the former being the biggest of Stewart\u00b4s career. These hits and his association with Buckingham and Nicks very nearly turned John into the Elvis he had always wanted to be, but there lies (or tells the truth) another story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My chronological memory all goes out of time here, but I then (subsequently ?) heard a song called Tear Down The Sky Liddy Buck, on a home recording of Stewart\u00b4s. This, I think was about the time that the first bout of disenchantment was setting-in between members of the Buckingham Nicks version of Fleetwood Mac. There was talk of departures and (slightly later?) a solo album was released by Buckingham that included a song called Johnny Stew and referred regularly in its chorus to John Stewart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John \u00b4the lonesome picker\u00b4 Stewart\u00b4s song spoke presciently of what has since happened to Lindsey a few times, \u00b4but you\u00b4ve flown too high, you\u00b4ve gone too far, you\u00b4re gonna tear down the sky for a star !\u00a8<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Liddy Buck\u00b4s response (?) was Johnny Stew that carried it\u00b4s own line of \u00b4\u00edt takes a worried man to sing a worried song\u00b4, a track Stewart had taken lead vocals on and played banjo on in a Trio recording. Lindsey\u00b4s song seems to be wondering where John Stewart was these days and closed on the conciliatory line of \u00b4Johnny, I know you were not wrong.\u00b4<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each song captured the flavour of the other\u00b4s music, and certainly the threesome of Buckingham Nicks and John Stewart on the latter\u00b4s Bombs Away Dream Babies (a phrase allegedly minted by Dave Guard),  always sounded to me like a slightly less commercial, but grittier and more Americana, than Rumours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lindsey stepped outside Fleetwood Mac several times to make a solo recording, though invariably dragged various Fleetwood members into the studio with him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those albums include seven releases of which the two most commercial and best-selling were Trouble and Go Insane, with Out Of The Cradle being perhaps the prettiest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Songs on these albums seemed to perhaps betray  an on Buckingham\u00b4s part of John Stewart\u00b4s earlier career in The Kingston Trio. Songs such as Mary Lee Jones and A Satisfied Mind (off Law And Order),  Slow Dancing, Loving Cup, (from Go Insane) and \u00c1ll My Sorrows and This Nearly Was Mine were in the Kingston Trio style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Years later came the implosion of Fleetwood Mac when Lindsey refused to tour with them and the group sued him for breach of contract, an accusation Buckingham sued them for and had successfully overturned in court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following that decision we then heard in 2022 that Former Fleetwood Mac<\/a> guitarist Lindsey Buckingham<\/a> had postponed his UK and European tour<\/a> after testing positive for COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buckingham was due to kick off his tour in Dublin on Tuesday (17th May) before hitting the UK for shows in Glasgow, Liverpool, London.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A statement on his official Twitter account reads: \u201cIt is with great sadness that we are announcing the postponement of Lindsey\u2019s European tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAlong with other members of his band and crew, Lindsey contracted COVID-19 at the end of his latest North American tour, forcing that to end prematurely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUnfortunately, he\u2019s still recovering and has no choice but to move the upcoming tour to a later date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is heart-breaking for Lindsey, he was so excited to come to Europe for the first time as a solo artist this spring.We’re currently working on rescheduling the dates and hope to have some news to share on that very soon.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the UK & Ireland dates, Buckingham was due to visit Belgium, France, The Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, Norway and Denmark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

There is, of course, still hope and time for further Lindsey Buckingham triumphs, further examples of him doing things his own way and further experimentation with the narrative of the music he loves.  Even a relatively recent album (left9 with  Christine McVie, as was, featured some beautiful moments, such as Red Sun (that received massive Radio BBC 2 airplay from the UK),  and (ironically) Love Is Here To Stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By one of those odd quirks of serendipity that forever sparkle in the arts, this article is being written on the day that news has reached me about the cast and crew having filmed the last scene of Neighbours, which will fall off air in December 2022 having run since 1985.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It could be argued that Fleetwood Mac is a \u00b4real life soap opera\u00b4 that has actually run for even longer, and might still have surprising episodes not yet even written.\u00a8<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know we tend to make links out of anything, really, but even though I had known of Steve Bewick\u00b4s interest in creating visual arts in paint, when we were working together back in Rochdale and had been astonished by some of his jazz portraits I also remember being amazed by some of  his sketches created when he and his wife Marlene were over here on holiday with us a few years back. A heavy black-lead pencil illustration of our garden was fantastic, and he also created another incredible view of the mountain range around Femes.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We regularly remind our readers of how much Lanzarote loves its artists, and on a day when we visited an art exhibition here on the island raising funds for Ukraine we were delighted to hear in an e mail of a special success for Steve<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

photo chet My principle idea, or practice is of producing fantastic or incongruous imagery or effects in a digital art form by means of unnatural or irrational juxtapositions and combinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The tools at my disposal are those of art based software utilising its many tools of layering, retexturing colours and cropping etc to create my ideas in a two dimensional image from available personal photographs, internet images and sketches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The outcomes of my work are often humorous, surprising and even shocking in some instances. This is intentional as I reflect upon the world, its images, successes and failings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


My influences are from the creative art forms of Jazz, surrealism and the writings of the American hip generation of beat poets and writers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The subject here is Chet Baker. Jazz trumpeter, flugelhorn and vocalist. Born in Yale, Oklahoma 23rd December 1929, died in Amsterdam, 13th May 1988.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was acclaimed the `great white hope` of jazz at the tender age of 23. Depicted in the film, `Let\u2019s Get Lost` (1988) interpreting his short and tragic life as a musician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here, I took a simple B&W photograph of 1954, taken by Chet Baker in Hollywood, USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


My only addition was of the distinctive colour red to his trumpet. Giving an expression of raw emotion in his playing. It might have been blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any Venn diagram showing a) music loved by Steve Bewick, b) music loved by Norman Warwick and c) the music loved by both Steve Bewick and Norman Warwick, the narrowqest section would surely b the shaded area of c ! We come together most frequently on the lighter, jazz pieces more familiar to the general public by the likes of Louis, Ella and Nat King Cole. In fact I think we were both a bit surprised to place the group Snarky Puppy (left)<\/em><\/strong> in the area marked common ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Snarky Puppy is an American instrumental ensemble led by bassist Michael League. Snarky Puppy combines a variety of jazz idioms, rock, world music, and funk and has won four Grammy Awards. Although the band has worked with vocalists, League described Snarky Puppy as “a pop band that improvises a lot, without vocals”. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a decade of incessant tours and recordings, the collective formed in Texas by Michael League in 2003 and composed of about 25 musicians is considered by the press and the public as one of the leading jazz bands. In the last decade it has won four Grammy Awards (Best R&B Performance in 2014, and Best Contemporary Instrumental Album in 2016, 2017 and 2021), categories that prove that Snarky Puppy isn\u2019t exactly a jazz band. But it\u2019s not a fusion band either, and it\u2019s definitely not an improvisational band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steve has always been more familiar with their music than have I, Although I had been aware of their name for years, I had never see them perform live so when, in July 2021, I had the opportunity to catch a gig they played here on Lanzarote, I took the opportunity to go see and hear them.. You can read our positive review of that gig in our archives in an article entitled Snarky Puppy: Its Alright, Its Only Music posted on 13th<\/sup> August 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jjazz archivist, radio presenter, writer and Sidetracks & detours reader, Gary Heywood-Everett, responded to that review by e mailing us to say<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glad you liked the Snarkies. I saw them at Manchester\u2019s Band on the Wall a few years ago (small club, heavy atmosphere \u2013 out of this world) and at the London Jazz Festival at the Roundhouse (also amazing). . My favourite track is What About Me a great version of which is on Youtube.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those of you who know Snarky Puppy will already  have these dates set in stone in their diaries, but if, as I was, you are familiar with the name but remain unsure of what you might hear, \u2026take the risk. You can catch them all over Europe in the coming weeks (left).<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
