I know Bekka, Bonnie and knew Delaney very well.

Bekka did get the writing and singing genes from her dad.

She is a great writer and sings better than Bonnie.

The only problem is Bekka is a psychological mess. I saw her at her dad's memorial service in Jan. 08 make a complete fool of herself. She is irresponsible and needs to get her act together before she does herself some harm.

From what I can gather, her father's death hit her pretty hard...

Wow. If you do know the family as well as you say you do, then why would you post this? It seems incredibly disrespectful and downright rude to announce Bekka's personal problems on a fan forum. If you're so close with her and the family, then take your concerns up with her directly. Or have you even seen her in the last two years? If not, who are you to say anything of her present psychologic condition?

Speaking of that album - I know you loved "Through the Walls" - but what are your thoughts on Billy's contributions? I think "Heart to Call Home" is one of his best songs (ever).

Good grief, five pages here -- does that exceed the original poll in the Rumours Forum? Thumbs up for the poll choices listed!

Thanks for the great vids. I hate to admit I still haven't bought Time.
I'm not sorry to admit I didn't bother with the original (very predictable) poll in the other forum. All three voices are extraordinary. Bekka's voice has much more of a gospel sound than Stevie or Chris, but they're all uniquely recognizable and wonderful. And Homer if you refer to Stevie as a goat one more time I'm coming after you with my cane.

Also I wanted to say this, to StandbackStevie -- Please DON'T refer to your opinions or your posts as stupid. They aren't. There are no stupid fans here, just really really really really really really passionate ones. And passion's a beautiful thing isn't it?

Thank you for saying that I really love all the era's and all the members of fleetwood mac right from the begining since 1967. Fleetwood Mac is my favorite band and always will be. I love all kinds of music and artists and bands. I do have all the albums and cd's of fleetwood mac's except for the Time cd will plan on getting that one and give it a listen I am sure its great will be looking forward to listening to it. I love my Stevie and Chris too.

That's it, lay on the guilt. But I have kids to feed, vet bills, a mortgage, my car needs new tires, and..........oh never mind, I'll look for it.

Hey StandbackStevie, glad to see you again! I love your love for Stevie and Chris and all of FM.

I agree if bekka has personal problems no one has a right to say anything unless its herself saying this. If she needs help I hope she gets it and takes care of whatever she is going through. Bekka deserves her privacy and respect.

I'm sure she was a wreck at her dad's funeral. They were very, very close.

However, she's also gotten married since then, so maybe her life has had some positive changes.

It's none of our business, either way.

I did notice last night that although she had accepted my friend request on Facebook, she has since deleted me as well.

Oh well I'm sure I can live without Bekka Bramlett's facebook friendship in my life

I agree wholeheartedly. That song could be a #1 hit today.

Email Bekka and ask her point blank: How many times did you visit your father when he was in UCLA for 9 months.

The answer...One maybe two times. That will show you how close she was to Delaney.

Again with the dragging of Bekka's personal business onto this forum.
Get a life, dude.
