Q&A: The Mick Fleetwood Blues Band ft. Rick Vito

Quote:

The 2010 Grammys were a splendid time. We here at Rhapsody HQ headed down to Los Angeles for the event, where we had the opportunity to interview one cool pop star after another. The coolest of them all just might've been Mick Fleetwood, whose album Blue Again, recorded with guitarist Rick Vito, was nominated for Best Traditional Blues Album.

Wait a minute. Did you say Mick Fleetwood? The blues?

That's right. Long before "Rhiannon" and Stevie Nicks' sexy-witch dance, the legendary drummer served time backing some of the great musicians in the British blues scene, including John Mayall. In fact, the Mac actually started life as a hardcore electric blues band, featuring Peter Green, mercurial guitarist and No. 1 rival of Eric Clapton. So yeah, Mick has kind of come full circle as of late.

We were lucky enough to sit down with both Mick and Rick, who gave us the scoop on Blue Again -- plus lots more on the blues, Peter Green and the long, tangled history of Fleetwood Mac. Do check it out.

Is there video attached? For some reason I don't have the link if there is one. Would love to watch it.

Thanks for posting. Hopefully, with continued/new interest, we can get Rick, Mick, Lenny and Mark to record some more. In the studio, live, both, whatever.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, "I want my MFBB!!"

Thanks so much!! Looks like there was some weird quirk when I looked at your original post the first time that wasn't showing the video as it does now. Can see it just fine, but really appreciate the post of the link to YouTube.

Will definitely be watching it tomorrow at home so I can have the sound on.

God, Mick Fleetwood can talk...
