I was wondering too why Ray was no longer with Lindsey and also why is Curry Grant no longer with the group. Age may be a factor too. Most people around 70 think about retirement.

At the last SYW show in Detroit, Stevie dedicated Landslide to Ray, saying that he drove her to the initial meeting with Fleetwood Mac and that it was his last show with them.

I've always wondered if Ray Lindsey was the roadie named Bart in "Into the Great Wide Open." Of course, I probably just have an overly active imagination.

I thought Curry was fired after Rumours for sleeping with Christine (and Stevie)?

Regarding Ray Lindsey, wasn’t there some sort of drama behind his exit, too? Either regarding compensation or the whole Say You Will album meltdown.

Curry was on some of Stevie's solo tours wasn't he?
And I don't think there was drama regarding Ray leaving. As far as I know he just didn't want to tour anymore, although he did stick around to help Lindsey out on his solo tour after that. And he gave some quotes for the Life FM magazine.

I think Ray left to go to work for Bette Midler.

Curry was fired for sleeping with Chris but at some point he is hired back. If you check the Mirage tour credits he is credited as the lighting director.

Stevie and Curry Grant definitely had a thing. There was an interview a few years ago in which she said something like “Fleetwood Mac’s lighting director complained about my stage outfits being see-through, I told him I’m not his girlfriend while I’m up there.”

So would that make him the only man that ever banged $tevie AND Christine?

Yeah.... probably not.

I used to be skeptical about it but I'm kinda convinced Lindsey is another one. In the early days after everyone broke up I think they 'shacked up' once or twice. I was watching clips from the Rumours backstage videos and Christine is sooooo touchy with him.

But other than that I don't think there's much else.

He was a stud in his prime. I don't blame anyone for banging him. I bet even Mick and Lindsey would bang him. Heck. I bet Lindsey did bang him. he LOVED he Beach Boys.
