Well, you're leaving out:

Fleetwood Mac (1971-72): Danny Kirwan/Bob Welch
Fleetwood Mac (1973): Bob Welch/Bob Weston


The Allman Bros RELY on two:

Dickey Betts/Dan Toler (1979-81)
Dickey Betts/Warren Haynes (1986-1993)
Dickey Betts/Jack Pearson (1993-94)
Dickey Betts/Derek Trucks (1994-2000)
Warren Haynes/Derek Trucks (2000-current)

And, there was that short lived incarnation of The Yardbirds: Jeff Beck/Jimmy Page

I can't even name 'em all, but Thin Lizzy made the twin guitar sound their signature.

And, then there's the "classic lineup" of the Eagles: Joe Walsh/Don Felder/(Glenn Frey - mostly rhythm but would toss in a lead here & there)

And, in the studio, Derek & The Dominos: Eric Clapton/Duane Allman

Blind Faith: Eric Clapton/Steve Winwood

Arc Angels: Charlie Sexton/Doyle Bramhall II

Clapton usually tours with an extraordinary co-guitarist: Either Doyle Bramhall II or Derek Trucks (or both)....he had Mark Knopfler with him in the late 80's....he had Tim Renwick (lead guitarist for Roger Waters) with him in '85...Albert Lee from 79-83...George Terry from 74-78.

Dave Mason Band (75-82): Dave Mason/Jim Kreuger

One incarnation of Savoy Brown: Kim Simmonds/Stan Webb/Miller Anderson

Well, and back when Stu Sutcliffe was playing bass, The Beatles: George Harrison/Paul McCartney

The Rolling Stones: Keith Richard/Brian Jones, Keith Richard/Mick Taylor, Keith Richard/Ron Wood

A short-lived incarnation of John Mayall's Bluesbreakers in the '80s: Coco Montoya/Walter Trout

Another Blast From The Past

Before Stevie Nicks was the primary voice of Fleetwood Mac, there was this talented singer, songwriter, and musician who gave the band its distinctive sound and uniquely carved out style:

His name was Bob Welch.

He eventually left to go solo. He had a couple of decent releases, whilst the band went in another direction with Lindsey Buckingham and the women. Those who were not pleased with that direction, were able to enjoy that sound for a little while longer with Bob's solo work.

1. Peter Green—Oh Well (Fleetwood Mac, Then Play On, 1969). Green is still alive, which is sort of amazing given the Class As and the schizophrenia. He replaced Eric Clapton in John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, and did a better job. Green is pure blues here, and his most recent band, Peter Green’s Splinter Group, put out some fine blues albums in the 1990s and 2000s. After he left Mayall’s band he founded Fleetwood Mac—which he also left a couple of years later, but not before putting out the classic Then Play On. I recall seeing an interview with B.B. King at some point where he said the only guitarist that ever scared him was Green. Green has a very pure sound, much like what Mark Knopfler developed. Green got there first.

Fleetwood Mac Kiln House Rock Music CD Review


Kiln House is the latest Rock CD put out by the highly group Fleetwood Mac and they have once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks. I’m confident Fleetwood Mac fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one.


It’s a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I’m more than happy to announce that’s exactly what I must say about this one. There simply isn’t a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all, with each song standing tall on it’s own.


Kiln House has a pleasantly varied, mix of 10 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly outstanding musicians. With many of the songs displaying a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own personal experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.


If you’re even mildly into Rock music you’ll enjoy this album. Overall Kiln House is an a great release. I give it my double thumbs up. You will not be disappointed with one single track.


While the entire album is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 3 – Blood On The Floor, track 9 – Tell Me All The Things You Do, and track 10 – Mission Bell.


My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 – This Is The Rock. It’s a great track!


Kiln House Release Notes:
Fleetwood Mac originally released Kiln House on October 25, 1990 on the Reprise label.


CD Track List Follows:

1. This Is The Rock 2. Station Man 3. Blood On The Floor 4. Hi Ho Silver 5. Jewel Eyed Judy 6. Buddy’s Song 7. Earl Gray 8. One Together 9. Tell Me All The Things You Do 10. Mission Bell

Fleetwood Mac: Jeremy Spencer (vocals, guitar, piano); Danny Kirwan (vocals, guitar); Mick Fleetwood (drums). Additional personnel: Christine Perfect (background vocals).

Peter Green is #8, but that's not my concern.



Of the most hated sports teams, how can the Philadelphia Eagles rank #6 compared to the others that are just out of jealousy because they have won championships within the last twenty years? The Eagles haven't won a championship in 50 years. I credit ESPN for going out of it's way to make sure they can get a cheap story of bad fan behavior from Philadelphia, while letting other cities (such as NY, Chicago, Boston, Washington) off the hook.

They aren't very scholarly since the "Oh Well" solo is Danny Kirwan, not Peter Green. "Love That Burns" would have been a "scholars" best choice.

I did not know this for sure, but it doesn't surprise me in the least.

For all that it is one of his staples, Black Magic Woman is actually a 1970 cover of a 1968 Fleetwood Mac rendition written by Peter Green. A medley with Gabor Szabo's 1966 Gypsy Queen, Santana's version works in exotic Hungarian rhythms with folk and latin strains. The album Abraxas, on which Black Magic Woman appeared, went to #1 and quadruple platinum, largely on the strength of the song.

It is possible, however obliquely, that the song was partly responsible for Peter Green leaving Fleetwood Mac. After it was released, Green reputedly befriended some people who were actually into black magic. In an interview with Cameron Crowe of Rolling Stone magazine, Christine McVie said these were the people who turned him on to acid, which led to Green leaving Fleetwood Mac.
