I just can't understand this.

AND his own kids decided to cover one of Ms. Nick's Fleetwood MAc songs and not their dad's, so I take it Jeremy know quite a bit of Stevie's and Lindsey's.

I don't know...there's a lot of music I know that my Dad doesn't know.

Peter?...yeah, somewhat, I guess...but, those times WERE when he made his first comeback with a string of albums (In The Skies, Little Dreamer, etc) before going off the deep end again. He WAS hanging around with Mick & Fleetwood Mac for a while during the recording of Tusk (hence his appearance on "Brown Eyes"). And, don't forget that Mick negotiated a contract with WB/Reprise for Peter at that time, although Peter balked at it and not to much later signed with PVK.

Jeremy? I'm not so sure about his being "in a bad place" then. He seemed and seems VERY comfortable with his "Children Of God"-ness. He's never been in an insane asylum or been "committed" or had any mental health issues. He hasn't ever really STOPPED playing music or had to re-learn how to play guitar or anything. Unfortunately, he's perceived to have mental issues due to his spur-of-the-moment disappearance leading to his departure from Fleetwood Mac. In retrospect, it appears that his "bad place" was being IN Fleetwood Mac to begin with.

Maybe. I've met somebody who was in the Children of God with Jeremy. He showed me some pics from the late '70s of the Children that looked like they were taken at a summer camp. And, I clearly recognized Jeremy. Anyway, he said that they were all aware of Fleetwood Mac's success. Still, they were so busy making their own music and playing for very large groups themselves that they didn't really have time to pay attention. Incidentally, if you're ever in the Cincinnati-Dayton area, the guy has (or at least had) a stand at Trader's World flea market, off of I-75. He knew I was a Mac fan when I bought some Danny Kirwan, Billy Burnette, and Delaney Bramlett albums.

Okay, I've got another question. This one's stupid and I should be able to find the answer on my own but I'm lazy today.

Lots of people talk about this song and I've read the lyrics and really like them but have no idea what album it's on..."Down Endless Street"? Where do I find that?

It was a b-side to a Tango single. I'm not sure which one.

B-side of the "Family Man" single.

Don't forget that the rest of this site is a pretty good resource to find answers:
