Interestingly enough; for as much of a diva that Stevie was she said she & Christine were always very close & looked out for each other. I found that very sweet.

The new term is “fuodroyant cancer,” meaning sudden and devastating. Brought on by c19 jabs. My neighbor died of this. Lung cancer in remission for 2 years. Returned 2 months post 2nd jab, dead 2 months after that.

It’s nauseating, just the memory.

I am a big fan of Christine McVie and pre-Stevie Nicks Fleetwood Mac. Loved “Say You Love Me” off of Fleetwood Mac (white album) which she wrote and sang.

She was planning on leaving Twitter so I heard.

It’s good to die surrounded by your family.

Your conflating two things that took place at the same time and suggesting one caused the other without a shred of evidence demonstrating causality.

I really liked Fleetwood Mac back when Peter Green started the band and they were a part of the British blues scene.

Not really.

If pop culture didn’t drive it, what is your alternative hypothesis?

I was 14 when the big LA / Watts race riots happened. Then I was 16 when the Newark and Detroit race riots happened. Those years of senseless burning of the cities put me off to MoTown which lasts to this day. I never could really enjoy that sound.

Asking me for an answer when yours is completely unsupported is weak and lame.

Your claim amount to saying the culture destroyed the culture. Care to add some substance to that?

I liked Christine McVie, in spite of the political leanings of FM.

Stevie Nicks got all the attention, but Christine was a superior singer/musician IMO.

Can we agree that society has devolved? Leftists would say progressed.

“IMO the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame did a disservice to Bob Welch when they omitted mention of his contributions to Fleetwood Mac”

Indeed, LP “Mystery to Me” is a fine album with Bob and Christine on vocals.

“...but Christine deserved an equal share.”

The LIONS share of credit. Wrote the songs, sang most of the hits, had the better voice.

We can but that wasn’t your original claim. You claimed a musical group kicked off the societal decay.
