pinkstones Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/former-fleetwood-mac-member-bob-welch-dead-at-65-20120607 Very, very sad. It says that he was battling health issues, so I have to imagine they were rather severe to cause him to want to take his own life. Sentimental Lady is one of my favorite songs, and I listen to it probably once a day. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 This is awful. Health issues, and it doesn't sound like he was pleased to have been left out of the RRHoF thing (he really should have been included). Sentimental Lady is one of my all time favorite songs as well. I hope he finds peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ombre Vivante Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Yeah, sad news all around. The rest of fleetwood mac behaved like a buncha douchebags when it came to the RRHoF. When Fleetwood Mac was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998, Welch was not included in the group. “It basically comes down to the fact that they don’t like me anymore,†he told The Plain Dealer of Cleveland at the time. “I guess they can do what they want. I could understand it if I had been a sideman for a year. But I was an integral part of that band ... I put more of myself into that band than anything else I’ve ever done.†Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Very sad news. Bob was kind enough to tell us the stories behind his beautiful songs "Sentimental Lady" and "Hypnotized" (which he wrote for Fleetwood Mac). He deserved a better ending.

phil Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Very sad news. I really enjoyed the Welch Fleetwood Mac era. Ebony Eyes is a great song, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayzor Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 He must have felt alone... We know you're a Hall of Famer Welch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamisammy29 Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 RIP, Mr. Welch. And yeah, that's how I've always thought of Mick Fleetwood...a douchebag! And it's not just his drumming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Though, his drumming would surely suffice as a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrilliantDisguise Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 This is all very sad. I wish all of this had been kept out of the media for Bob's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
