Default Round 1: (I'm A) Road Runner

Hey, a Penguin survivor is a pretty cool idea. It's not one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac albums, but there are some truly, terrific songs on there anyway. And, I LOVE the cover & the terrific gatefold picture on the inside.

I'll start off with one of the Dave Walker songs. I could really flip a coin to pick one or the other, but I guess I'll go with (I'm A) Road Runner.

Penguin got up to #49 on the U.S. Billboard chart. If that's correct, then immunity to "The Derelict, I guess.

P.S. Don't you mean the song with the most votes per round gets eliminated?

Default Round 1: Night Watch

I don't need to see magic shadows... not one of Bob's finest, bit rambling and tedious. I know Road Runner will get voted off but I've always liked it - shame we didn't get Kirwan and Spencer on guitars instead of Welch and Weston for this track - they would have made it rock a lot harder, instead of getting left behind and blown away by Walker's harmonica.

The title says it all. I've never liked this song.

Default Round 3: The Derelict

I'll go with The Derelict again.

Bob Weston toured with the Long John Baldry Band before joining Fleetwood Mac. If that's correct, then immunity to Dissatisfied.

I can vouch for the correctness of the answer.
