I listened to AM radio all the time as a tyke. I heard "Rhiannon" & "Say You Love Me" but didn't know what they were called & thought nothing about them. My favorite songs were "Come & Get Your Love" by Redbone, "Indian Sunset" by Elton John, "Brother Louie" by Stories & other great pop hits. If I knew the name "Fleetwood Mac," I probably thought it was some sort of country group.
I went to a Fleetwood Mac concert & didn't like it much at all. If I thought beforehand they were country, seeing them onstage made me think they were heavy rockers, drug addicts & hippie killers like Charles Manson's gang.
My memory's a little foggy, but I grew to like them pretty quickly, & my fanaticism -- with all the magazines & chasing them down & buying photos & all that nonsense -- just grew & grew.
They played "Dreams" on the school bus & I hated it, but I loved "Go Your Own Way."
