What Was Said
S: So, I’ll start at the beginning and try and make it a little shorter than it’s supposed to be. So, in 1973 – no, wrong. Wrong. In 1970 I wrote a poem in San Francisco about Lindsey and I. It was a very beautiful poem. It was written about us when everything was just fantastic because, of course, we hadn’t made it in the music business yet and we were struggling and we were poor. We weren’t even that poor, actually, because we lived at our parents’ house so... Everything was actually pretty damn good. They supported us, we were having a lot of fun. So I wrote this poem, probably put it in the desk next to my bed and then we decided we were going to move to Los Angeles and get a record deal. And so we did. We hopped in Lindsey’s Skylark or Buick, Skylark, and zoomed down to Los Angeles and made the Buckingham Nicks album.
S: So I get it and take it to Lindsey and I go ‘do you remember this song?’ And he’s like ‘well, yeah, I do; I’m playing on it’. And it was wild because both of us remember it so well. It’s probably like the only song we do up here that I, I just know it. I know it. I don’t even have to think about it I know it so well. Of course, now I’m going to make lots of mistakes. Anyway, so, I’m getting lost... This happens every night. Cos my story got a little screwed up. Okay, I know what it is. I think.
S: Thank you, Lindsey, for taking me with you on this wild ride of yours into Fleetwood Mac. He’s speechless. You’re completely speechless. Alright, moving on... So you want to say anything at all? *shakes head and laughs* You don’t! Not even the girlfriend thing?
L: Oh. Oh, sure. Well, two things. Mick called and said ‘would you like to join Fleetwood Mac?’ and I said ‘you’ll have to take my girlfriend too’. That’s what I call loyalty. But, you know, no one can say it didn’t work out for the best.
S: Drumroll! Alright, now we get to Mick. I also now would like to thank Mick Fleetwood for finding either of us or both of us, whatever. And asking us to join this marvellous band and taking us on this wild Alice in Wonderland ride. Yayyyyyy! Thank you, Mick. And last but not least, I would like to thank the best and the most handsomest bass player in the whole world, Mr John McVie, for just saying – This is what I think he said: ‘Just take the girl!!!’
