RIP Alan Thicke
Does anyone remember the late night show "Thicke of the Night." In 1983 he hosted Mick Fleetwood and the Zoo. I was blown away because Mick did not get many solo TV gigs back in the day. Alan was a fan of the Mac and asked many questions about the future of Fleetwood Mac. I remember Billy Burnette laughing at one of the questions because in 1983 the status of the Mac was really an unknown. Alan's show was ahead of its time because Carson was stale with old time performers. Alan's show had current new and current artists but the show was a flop and was cancelled after a year. It was not until Aresenio Hall that that kind of "hip" show took off.
