It's not your fault louie..., Fleetwood Mac is a lot like the band Chicago, only more intrenched. While Chicago was slowly drifting towards pop music while supreme guitarist Terry Kath was alive, they really fell off the cliff when Kath accidentally killed himself in 1978. It wasn't long after that Chicago became unlistenable.

Mick Fleetwood would've followed Peter Green into the Sun (except when it came to money), that's how good the original FM band was. Peter Green left at the worst possible time for the band's growth. They would've shared rock stardom with Led Zeppelin, The Who, the Rolling Stones, The Allmans, and The Dead. As long as Danny Kirwan was in the band, FM still had that "it".

While Mick Fleetwood took the money route, and has had financial success beyond his dreams (ala ABBA), he didn't create "The Mick Fleetwood Blues Band" to make more cash. Mick Fleetwood misses Peter Green.
