Former Fleetwood Mac Guitarist Bob Welch Dead (Suicide)

Ultimate Classic Rock ^ | 6/7/2012

[My Favorite Headache]

Jann Wenner (Obama's boy) Rolling Stone Editor, US Magazine Owner, and one of the head founders and CEO of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame pushed this man into a deep depression as it was his decision not to include him in the rock and roll hall of fame.

People better step up with the hall of fame..a lot of rockers are dropping like crazy that should have been inducted years if not decades ago. A total disgrace that Welch did not get in. RIP.

You Hank Jr, one of the absolute best country stars ever is not in the Hall of Fame either. complete garbage who gets in and who doesn’t and these instances just go to prove it takes a lot of politicking and brown nosing to get in.

[EGPWS]

Ebony Eye’s.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Wow, a classic rocker takes his own life and YOU have to go on a juvenile rant?

Idiot.

[stratman1969]

That’s too bad. I had the 45 of Ebony Eyes when it came out. Sentimental Lady and Precious Love were great songs as well.

R.I.P.

With Jann Wenner involved it helps a lot if the artists are fags. I love that pre Buckingham-Nicks stuff.

[yldstrk]

eh? I was sympathizing that the guy hadn’t gotten into the hall of fame. What is your problem

[Jet Jaguar]

Obama Fault.

[Happy Rain]

Wow, Paris “Big Towne 2061” was one of my all time stoner favorites—especially the haunting title song.

RIP bro.

[Jet Jaguar]

Obama’s fault.

[yldstrk]

Yeah, well Hank Jr isn’t gay, and wrote that “Dinosaur” song about not wanting to hear a song about the guitarist making love to his drummer.......maybe this Fleetwood Mac guy was too straight

[LostInBayport]

I just heard this on the radio news break...how awful. Bob Welch was part of a wonderful, underrated era of Fleetwood Mac that was sadly forgotten upon the arrival of Buckingham/Nicks. He wrote and sang some truly beautiful songs...some spiritual, some rockin’...and they all took the listener someplace else, someplace good.

RIP

“Hypnotized” was his best, IMO.

[JennysCool]

What a snub that was! Particularly since other former Mac members WERE inducted! WTF?

[RckyRaCoCo]

"seems like a dream, they got you hypnotized..."

RIP

[Magic Fingers]

‘“Hypnotized” was his best, IMO.’

Ditto!

[DB]

My favorite as well.

[Amberdawn]

You beat me to it. I bought a WHOLE CD just to hear that song! Haunting. RIP Mr. Welch

If you’re a true musician- you should play your instrument or compose music for the sheer joy of it. If you’re in it for the “awards”, then you’re a hack.

I Enjoyed his Era of Fleetwood Mac. And I Enjoyed his Solo Career. It said he had health problems. If he was looking at a dreadful ending via disease I can understand his choice of Suicide. I’ve had friends and family die horrible deaths hooked up to machines and living in constant pain. Hopefully he is at peace.
