Jeremy was the leader, I was wrong!
Having absorbed as much as I could of the Madison Blues discs I have to admit it does seem that for awhile on the Kiln House tour Jeremy was the point man for FM, the main attraction, however brief that time was. I had seen him only as a side act and mainly a mimic up until hearing some of these live recordings. It makes more sense now the pressure he had said he was feeling that lead him to leaving suddenly. It's too bad also how the kind of people a rock group draws the strongest are the emptiest ones looking for something more than the music.
In the DVD interview Jeremy mentioned some '70s tracks as being disco garbage. I must not have heard those tracks but I did like something of his I heard after Fleetwood Mac.
If for some reason you don't have it yet the Madison Blues set is very much worthwhile.
