So you wanted Fleetwood Mac to mimic the 70's era of "The Band", with Bob Dylan? That's what "The Derelict" sounds to me. I'm now convinced that after "Mystery To Me"'s version of 'Hypnotized", the old band died by firing squad. It fought hard to hold on, but it was just too much. Peter Green was three steps ahead of Fleetwood Mac, that's why he quit 5/70. He wasn't insane (then), he just had enough!
