Read these comments today about Bob and Fleetwood Mac, and I must say this is one of the best I personally have read concerning Bob. Here below is the cut and paste version. ********************************************************************************** Bill Smith NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, UNITED KINGDOM 3 days ago Liked 1 I played my first American tour in 74 with Fleetwood Mac and Deep Purple. Bob was playing guitar at the time. FM seemed to revolve around Bob both on and off stage. I knew of FM from the very beginning. I had watched them wonder through musical change and at times they seemed to have no direction at all. I had not seen them for about two years until the 74 Tour. Bob was pulling the band into shape without a doubt. he was the unspoken leader of the band at that time. Bob and Mick were constantly together on the tour and appeared to be more like brothers than band members. I can't imagine what Bob could have done to be treated in the way that he has been.
