Let's also remember that Jeremy's first solo album was SUPPOSED to be part of the "Then Play On" set (all the tunes were recorded during what became "Then Play On" and it was supposed to be released simultaneously with "TPO", as well), but its release was delayed four months (or so) to where they pretty much were forced to call it "a Jeremy Spencer solo album". It SHOULD be credited to "Fleetwood Mac", since it, for all intents & purposes, IS a Fleetwood Mac album, just with Jeremy taking all the lead vocals. So, in the minds of Mick & John, they're perfectly correct in their recollections of those tunes being "Fleetwood Mac" songs. But, to say that "nobody ever heard them" is definitely incorrect.
Oh yeah, I do agree that it SHOULD have been that way ("FM" etc.) BUT SINCE it TURNED OUT being billed "the way it was" (JS solo), I guess I was/am just disappointed that they didn't list where those recordings came from originally in case someone heard them and wanted to hear "more things like that" etc. as if they had then that interested listener could have found out right away "where to hear more of that kind of stuff" if ya get my drift.

Oh well, whatever, hopefully someday they'll let us, the fans get the info right for them!
