Bob Welch, Former Fleetwood Mac Member Dies

Bob Welch Dead: Former Fleetwood Mac Member Dies After Self-Inflicted Gunshot Wound

Don't own any Fleetwood Mac, but I do own Welch's Paris: Big Towne 2061, and his solo LP, Bob Welch: French Kiss. He had a decent music career at one time, hadn't heard anything from him in years though. He was 65.

I was never a big fan of his, but I'm really surprised and saddened to see this.

He must have had a terminal and painful illness to want to end it all like that...

RIP Bob...thanks for the tunes.

Sad. I didn't hear all of his solo work. Just the hits. I did really like the Fleetwood Mac song "Hypnotized".

Oh fuck, this really sucks. He had a promising solo career that got derailed by drug use but the man had talent.
