The Wild Heart

**The Wild Heart** is Stevie Nicks' second solo album, released June 10th 1983. It was dedicated to the memory of her friend Robin Anderson who had recently died from leukaemia.

*The Wild Heart* spawned three US Top 40 singles in Stand Back, If Anyone Falls and Nightbird. Following the success of Stop Draggin' My Heart Around (1981), the album featured a second duet with Tom Petty in I Will Run To You for which they were backed once again by the Heartbreakers including Nicks' future Fleetwood Mac member Mike Campbell.

Mick Fleetwood played drums on Sable on Blonde.

*The Wild Heart* was also the first of Nicks' albums to feature keyboards, background vocals and composition from Sandy Stewart. The two would work together again on a number of occasions, most notably on the Fleetwood Mac hit Seven Wonders (1987).

Bare Trees (album)

## *Bare Trees*

***Bare Trees*** is the sixth studio album by Fleetwood Mac, released in March 1972. It was their last album to feature Danny Kirwan.

Kirwan and the other two singer/songwriters in the group, Christine McVie and Bob Welch, each contributed two lyrical numbers. Kirwan also contributed two instrumentals and a setting of Rupert Brooke's poem *Dust*.

The concluding track, Thoughts On a Grey Day was written and read by Aileen Scarrot an elderly lady who lived in the village of Headley in Hampshire where the band were living together at the time.

The album was certified platinum in 1988 probably on the strength of it containing the original version of Sentimental Lady, which became a solo hit for Bob Welch in 1977. It peaked at 70 in the US and 37 in Australia.

The cover photographs were taken in the garden at Benifold, the band's communal residence in Hampshire, by the group's bassist John McVie.

Released as the third single from the album, it reached the Top 30 in several countries. It peaked at #5 in the United Kingdom, McVie's first top ten hit as a vocalist/composer in her home country and her first top twenty hit as a vocalist since Chicken Shack's cover of I'd Rather Go Blind in 1969.

Silver Springs

**Silver Springs** is a song written by Stevie Nicks and recorded by her with Fleetwood Mac in 1976. Originally intended for inclusion on the album Rumours, it was left off due to space restrictions and instead appeared on the b-side of the album's lead single Go Your Own Way.

Nicks deeply resented this omission as she deeply loved the song but Mick Fleetwood insisted that either Silver Springs be replaced with I Don't Want to Know (which Nicks personally disliked) or she only have two songs on the album. Nicks ran out into the parking lot and screamed.

The song was performed live on the Rumours tour but slipped back into relative obscurity after this. It made news again in 1990 when Nicks left Fleetwood Mac when Mick Fleetwood refused to let her use the song for her solo compilation Timespace: The Very Best of Stevie Nicks.

Silver Springs finally appeared on an album when it was included on the 1992 4CD compilation 25 Years: The Chain and its 2CD edition. When the Rumours line-up of Fleetwood Mac reunited in 1997, the resulting live album, The Dance, included a performance of Silver Springs which ended with Nicks expressing her deep gratitude to the audience and describing it as "a great old song". This recording was released as a single.

In 2001 it appeared on the DVD-Audio edition of Rumours. The commentary featured Nicks expressing joy that "The couple is now back together" and Fleetwood saying "You can forgive me now Stevie."

It has been performed periodically on Fleetwood Mac tours ever since, and was used to close the shows on the 2009 Unleashed tour.

Don't Let Me Down Again

**Don't Let Me Down Again** is a song written by Lindsey Buckingham and performed by him on the Buckingham Nicks album in 1973.

Despite the album having long since been deleted, Don't Let Me Down Again has remained widely known among Fleetwood Mac fans as it was performed live by the band during Buckingham and Stevie Nicks' first tours with them. A performance in Passaic, New Jersey from circa 1975 is available on the 1980 Fleetwood Mac Live album.
Albatross

**Albatross** is an instrumental piece composed by Peter Green, released as Fleetwood Mac's fourth single on November 22nd 1968. It marked not only their first UK Top 10 hit but their only No 1 in their native country's singles chart. It stayed there for a week in early 1969 before being displaced by The Move's *Blackberry Way*. It also topped the charts in the Netherlands. A reissue of the single peaked at No 2 in 1973, held off the top spot by 10cc's *Rubber Bullets*.

Santo & Johnny's "Sleep Walk" (1959) reportedly inspired Peter Green for his 1968 instrumental "Albatross",[2] although the composition also resembles Chuck Berry's 1957 instrumental "Deep Feeling", itself derivative of the 1939 recording "Floyd's Guitar Blues" by Andy Kirk and his 12 Clouds of Joy, featuring guitarist Floyd Smith.[3]

The composition and its arrangement suggest a relaxing sea setting, with cymbals imitating the sound of waves (Mick Fleetwood played his drum kit using timpani mallets to give a muted sound) and a dreamy solo from Green's guitar. It was also the band's first single release to feature guitar work from new member Danny Kirwan. Although slide guitarist Jeremy Spencer was not a part of the recording sessions, he was featured in television appearnces miming to Green's slide guitar parts. Kirwan's
instrumental "Jigsaw Puzzle Blues" was chosen for the B-side in most territories. "Albatross" has been re-released many times as a single in various countries, with many different B-sides.

The song was also covered by erstwhile Fleetwood Mac guitarist Rick Vito on his 2005 album Rattlesnake Shake.

## Trivia

"Albatross" is the only Fleetwood Mac composition with the distinction of having inspired a Beatles song, "Sun King" from 1969's *Abbey Road*.

Beautiful Child

**Beautiful Child** is a song written by Stevie Nicks and recorded by her with Fleetwood Mac for their 1979 album Tusk.

The song was performed live on the 2003-04 Say You Will tour with Brett Tuggle handling the piano introduction.

Sandy Stewart

**Sandy Stewart**,born on January 13, 1958 in San Francisco, is a songwriter, singer and keyboardist from Houston, Texas, USA. She is mostly known for her 1984 album *Cat Dancer* and her association with Stevie Nicks. Stewart and Nicks duetted on the song I Pretend, featured on *Cat Dancer*.

Her best known composition is Seven Wonders which, with a small lyrical amendment from Nicks, featured on Fleetwood Mac's 1987 album Tango in the Night and released as the album's second single.

Prior to and subsequent to this, Stewart was featured as a co-writer and musician (keyboards/backing vocals) on several of Nicks' songs, most notably on The Wild Heart (1983) where she also posed with backing vocalists Sharon Celani and Lori Perry for the album cover photos.
Junior Mitchell

**Henry "Junior" Mitchell Jr.** is the adopted child of Paige Matthews and Henry Mitchell. He is the youngest of the Mitchell children and overall of the charmed ones' children. He was born to a mortal teenager who was killed by the Darklighter Rennek and Paige saved his life by orbing him out of her womb. His father was later revealed to be Christopher Mercer, the son of a powerful criminal.
Bob Brunning

**Robert Brunning** (29 June 1943 – 18 October 2011), commonly known as **Bob Brunning**, was the first bass guitarist to work with Fleetwood Mac. He played on their first single I Believe My Time Ain't Long b/w Rambling Pony (1967) and at their early gigs from July to September 1967 when originally intended bassist John McVie suddenly became available. Brunning stepped aside but his playing also featured on the song Long Grey Mare on the band's first album in 1968.

Despite his short spell in the band, Brunning continued his connection. After a short stint with Savoy Brown, he played along with both Mick Fleetwood and Danny Kirwan in Tramp, an occasional collaboration of British blues musicians and also went on to form his own Sunflower Brunning Blues Band.

For most of his life, Brunning pursued a career as a teacher, ultimately becoming a headmaster at three different schools in South London. He also worked as an author on the British blues scene and reinforced his connection with Fleetwood Mac when he wrote their first official biography *Behind the Masks* in 1990. This was later updated and reissued as *Fleetwood Mac: The First 30 Years*, and *The Fleetwood Mac Story: Rumours and Lies*.

Bob Brunning died suddenly from a heart attack on October 18th 2011.

Love is Dangerous

**Love is Dangerous** is a song written by Rick Vito and Stevie Nicks and recorded by them with Fleetwood Mac for the band's 1990 album *Behind the Mask*. The song is sung as a duet between Vito and Nicks featuring brief vocal solos by both of them. A driving rock number, also highlighting the band's namesake rhythm section, it failed to register on the Billboard Hot 100 but peaked at #7 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. It reached #70 in Canada.

The song was performed live on the Behind the Mask tour. It later appeared on the digital streaming edition of the compilation 50 Years - Don't Stop in 2018.

Rick Vito would record a rewritten version of the song for his 2001 album Crazy Cool. This had more of a gospel feel and was sung in a major key compared to the original's minor setting. The lyric was significantly reduced with the second half of the first verse serving as a refrain and the middle eight missing completely.

Dave Mason

**Dave Mason**, born David Thomas Mason on May 10th 1946 in Worcester, England, is an English guitarist, singer and songwriter who was a member of Fleetwood Mac from 1993 to 1995. He featured on their Another Link in the Chain tour and their 1995 album *Time*.

## Before Fleetwood Mac

Mason's recording career began with Traffic, a psychedelic jazz-influenced band led by Steve Winwood, formerly of the Spencer Davis Group. He appeared on their first three album releases contributing vocals, guitar and songwriting. His most notable contribution to the group was Hole In My Shoe (1967) which peaked at No 2 in the UK as did a cover by a comedy act in 1984.

From 1969-70 Mason toured with Delaney & Bonnie and friends in a line-up that also featured Eric Clapton and George Harrison.

When Traffic reformed in 1970, Mason was not invited to take part, although he returned briefly for the live album Welcome to the Canteen (1971). His solo debut Alone Together (1970) featured contributions from Bonnie Bramlett, Rita Coolidge, Leon Russell and a number of notable session musicians. The single Only You Know and I Know peaked at #42 on Billboard.

More albums followed including a collaboration with Cass Elliot of The Mamas and the Papas in 1971. His biggest hit single was We Just Disagree (1977) although this was not a song he had written.

## Fleetwood Mac

The invitation to join Fleetwood Mac came in 1993 as Mick Fleetwood, an old friend of Mason's, sought to establish a new line-up to record and tour. Mason replaced departed lead guitarist Rick Vito while Bekka Bramlett, the daughter of Delaney & Bonnie, was recruited in place of long-term vocalist Stevie Nicks.

Mason and Bramlett featured in a photograph announcing the new line-up with Fleetwood, John McVie and Christine McVie but when the group made its debut performance at the 1994 World Cup celebrations, the lineup was without Christine McVie, who did not wish to tour at this time, but did feature the return of Billy Burnette who had first joined in 1987.

The first song released by this lineup was Blow by Blow, sung and co-written by Mason. This featured on the World Cup 1994 album and was also one of only two new songs performed on the subsequent Another Link in the Chain tour (1994-5).

The only album Mason recorded with the group was *Time* (1995). The album featured another version of Blow By Blow and one other Mason contribution, I Wonder Why. But the album was not a commercial success and the lineup split shortly afterwards. The band's Rumours line-up would reunite in 1997.

## After Fleetwood Mac

Mason returned to his solo career. Bekka Bramlett performed with Mason on his Alone Together Again tour in the 2010s.

25 Years: The Chain

**25 Years: The Chain** is a four CD compilation released in 1992 to mark the twenty-fifth annivesary of Fleetwood Mac. It takes its title from the group's well-known song on the 1977 album Rumours. It focused mostly on the bestselling 1975-87 period although the fourth disc focused more on the group's early years as a blues band (1967-70). The album was also released in a 2CD edition as **Selections From 25 Years: The Chain**.

The release contained four brand new songs (although one had been recorded as early as 1988) as well as other previously unreleased tracks and alternate mixes in addition to established material.

Of the fourteen musicians who had at some point been official members of Fleetwood Mac over the 1967-92 period, the only one not featured here is Dave Walker who sang on two songs on Penguin (1973). He is however listed in the roll call of members in the inner booklet.

Bekka & Billy

**Bekka & Billy** is a 1997 country album released by the duo comprising Bekka Bramlett and Billy Burnette. The pair had met in Fleetwood Mac where they had shared lead vocals with other group members and Burnette had played rhythm guitar. Burnette had already served six years with the group and played on one album (Behind the Mask) when Bramlett joined in 1993. The only Fleetwood Mac album to feature Bramlett was Time (1995). Here she sang solo lead on three tracks including Dreamin' the Dream co-composed with Burnette. The two sang harmony leads on Burnette's other two songs on the album.

Time was not successful and the line-up disbanded shortly afterwards. But Bramlett and Burnette were enjoying their working relationship and stayed together to cut this album.

The duo did not stay together for long but Bramlett sang backing vocals on Burnette's 2000 album Are You With Me Baby.

The track, *God Knows I Love You*, was co-written by Bramlett's father, Delaney and recorded by her parents, the duo Delaney & Bonnie, for their 1970 album *To Bonnie From Delaney*.

PJ-1000 ( Rogue C.L.O.N.E)

PJ-1000 (Registration number 12-10C741602) is a rogue C.L.O.N.E. present in 2105TWTEAW. Not much is known about this rogue specimen besides being a member of the New Texan Republic (NTR), later being “betrayed” by the rest of the team members, being “threatened for his life, and treated poorly”. Soon after that, he later killed himself and ended up being replicated into a Cyborg type organism, that hunted down other clones and androids as well as members of the NTR. Despite being a villain to the members of Mitch Sutsike’s team, a rogue PJ-6000 brings down a mothership inbound to what will become the base of the new republic, posing a threat to both the cyborg and the Republic. The PJ-1000 agreed to team up with them and overpower the dominant PJ. After the PJ-6000 has been shut down, the rogue cyborg continued hunting down anyone in his way, but the PJ-6000 was rebooted and reprogrammed himself to protect Carter North at any cost. The two PJ’s have been at each other’s throats ever since, being direct rivals. Both have won and lost battles with each other. PJ-1000 has been deceased since October 23rd, 2105.

This was the last solo album Burnette would release before joining Fleetwood Mac in 1987. He would not release another until Coming Home (Billy Burnette album) in 1993.

**Outside the Rain** is a song written and recorded by Stevie Nicks for her 1981 solo debut Bella Donna. Like the album's lead single Stop Draggin' My Heart Around, it featured the backing of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers except that it featured no vocal contribution from Petty.

In the absence of the Heartbreakers' regular bassist Ron Blair, bass guitar duties were handled by Tom Moncrieff who had previously played behind Nicks in the Buckingham Nicks duo she and Lindsey Buckingham comprised before joining Fleetwood Mac.

Drowzee Line

Another pure psychic type, Drowzee is a fat, sickly yellow, lovably sleazy looking tapir known for its powers of hypnosis and its diet of dreams, which it somehow sucks through the nostrils of sleepers. Gross! This is, of course, based on the mythological baku, a dream-eating monster traditionally depicted as a hybrid animal with the trunk of an elephant. Once the Japanese discovered tapirs for the first time, it seemed only natural to name them after the baku, and today, the monster is more commonly portrayed throughout anime, manga and video games as just a big, weird, magical tapir.

Drowzee is another of those smooth, natural looking first generation designs, which I do heavily prefer for flesh-and-blood animal pokemon. I love inanimate object creatures to death, but I can fully understand the criticism that from the third generation onward, a lot of ostensibly organic pokemon started looking a little too much like angular, plastic toys.

Drowzee also has a uniquely unsettling personality, its eyes simultaneously weary and euphoric. It's definitely the kind of face I expect from a creature getting high off brain-waves.

The skeeviness of Drowzee only grows as it evolves into Hypno, an incredibly disquieting blend of that doughy, yellow tapir with some kind of weasely goblin-man, and while I always got a sense that Hypno was just meant to look kind of comical and sagely, I feel like it's easily in the top four or five creepiest looking things in the series.

This isn't helped by the inherent wrongness of anything that gets into your head and lulls you to sleep against your will, or the fact that the pokedex says Hypno is capable of stealing children, whose dreams it also finds "tastier." This is like some sort of old-world, deep dark fairy tale horror.

I was glad to know I wasn't the only one who appreciated Hypno's top-quality uncanniness, as a whole creepypasta song revolves around the hairy gnome - sung to the tune of Pokemon's own dreadful Lavendar Town theme music. There's even at least one fan made game inspired by the song.

After all these years, though, it somehow only just clicked for me that Hypno's behavior and bearded gnome motif were probably intended to invoke the idea of the sandman all along. Of COURSE the sandman is actually an anthropomorphic baku!
Oh Well

**Oh Well** is a song written by Peter Green and recorded by him with Fleetwood Mac as the group's fifth single released September 26th 1969. The song was later appended to the US edition of *Then Play On* and featured on all CD issues of the album.

The song comes in two parts, the first a blues rock track with two short verses sung unaccompanied with the title phrase sung during a recurring instrumental phase. The second is a lengthy instrumental piece featuring classical guitar, piano, cello and recorder. The piano was played by Jeremy Spencer and the recorder by Green's then-girlfriend Sandra Elsdon. All other instruments, including guitar, bass, cello, timpani and cymbals were played by Green.

Part 1 appeared on the A-side of the single and became a concert favourite in its own right. While other songs composed by Green would disappear from the set in the years following his departure from the group, Oh Well proved a perennial favourite with future live performances featuring vocals from Bob Welch, Lindsey Buckingham, Billy Burnette, Bekka Bramlett and Mike Campbell.

The song peaked at No 2 in the United Kingdom, only held off the top spot by the Archies' *Sugar Sugar*. It reached No 1 in the Netherlands, the second of Mac's singles to do so following Albatross. They would achieve the Dutch top spot a third time with Go Your Own Way in 1977.

Two former members of Fleetwood Mac would feature the song in their solo projects. Bob Welch covered both parts for His Fleetwood Mac Years and Beyond (2003). A live performance by Billy Burnette featured on his 2006 live album Memphis in Manhattan who would later bring out a studio version on Crazy Like Me (2017). A live version performed by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers featured on that band's 2009 archive release *The Live Anthology*. Heartbreakers' lead guitarist Mike Campbell would take the lead vocal on live performances of the song after joining Fleetwood Mac in 2018.

Ray Lindsey

**Ray Lindsey** is an American guitarist and sound technician. He served as additional guitarist on Fleetwood Mac's Tusk and Mirage tours, usually playing rhythm to Lindsey Buckingham's lead, and his playing features on live recordings from those periods. He also worked on their 2003 Say You Will tour as a guitar technician and on Buckingham's Live at the Bass Performance Hall (2007).

The only Fleetwood Mac studio recording to feature his playing was the Stevie Nicks song Straight Back in 1982. He also received credit as a guitar technician on the two new songs on the 1988 Greatest Hits album.

Away from Fleetwood Mac he has mostly worked in television.
That's Alright

**That's Alright** is a song by Stevie Nicks. It was written in 1974 with the intention of being recorded for the next Buckingham Nicks project but ultimately did not appear on record until Fleetwood Mac's 1982 album Mirage.

Ekans Line

Ekans is the first pure poison-type pokemon in the 'dex, so naturally, it's a simple rattlesnake. The typing would feel a little more special if it hadn't been handed arbitrarily to the Bulbasaur line, of course; this makes three distinct poison type pokemon families in only the first nine. Poison is by far my favorite type in the game, but they threw it around like confetti in the first gen, didn't they? I guess that was at least partially for the sake of Team Rocket, the first-gen villains who used primarily poison types.

Anyway, Ekans is a cutie. I love its appropriately expressionless, snakey eyes.

It's a shame those cool reptilian eyes are lost when Ekans evolves, but at least Arbok gains those badass monster-face markings in its hood, an exaggeration of the warning spots an actual king cobra has on its back. Arbok's pokedex mentions that these markings vary from region to region, and for a while, that was even reflected by the games themselves.

The first three generations gave us subtly different Arboks, until the fourth went straight back to the first design. Arbok hasn't been seen with a new face since, and that's too bad, because these days we have pokemon who come with variable markings or color schemes in the same game. There's a butterfly pokemon now whose wings even differ depending on what actual, real part of the world you're playing from, and it would be really cool if they also did that for Arbok.

Anyway, Ekans and Arbok are best known for having been introduced to us as the signature pokemon of Jessie, one of the three lovable main good guy protagonist central heroes who star in The Pocket Monsters Show (check your local cable listings!). We all kind of assumed Jessie and James would hang on to their original pokemon and just keep growing their roster like the nefarious villain, Ash Ketchum, but for some reason they'd eventually just keep cycling them out and never have more than one or two at a time, though they'd at least continue having pokemon like snakes, insects, carnivorous plants and other less cutesy-poo fare.

What was up with Arbok's pronunciation of its name, though? "CHAH-bok?"

Another fairly plain pokemon, I suppose, but a snake is NEVER disappointing. That's a scientifically demonstrable fact. When was the last time you were disappointed to find a snake? I bet it was never. Even if, for some bizarre reason, you actively do not like snakes, I doubt your emotional response to a snake is ever underwhelming.
Got a Hold On Me

**Got a Hold On Me** is a song written by Christine McVie and Todd Sharp and recorded by McVie for her self-titled 1984 album with Sharp on guitar. McVie's Fleetwood Mac colleague Lindsey Buckingham also contributed guitar to the track. The song was released as the album's lead single and peaked at #10 in the USA, McVie's only Top 10 hit as a solo artist.

Murrow Turning Over in His Grave

**Murrow Turning Over in His Grave** is a song written by Lindsey Buckingham and recorded by him with Fleetwood Mac for their 2003 album Say You Will. The chorus is based on the traditional American song "Black Betty".

Lindsey Buckingham has said that the song was written to reflect his belief that renowned American journalist Ed Murrow (1908-65) would be greatly dismayed by the present-day media.[4] Murrow was a great believer of honesty and integrity in delivering news to the people of the world.

The song was never performed live by Fleetwood Mac but a live version appeared on Buckingham's Soundstage DVD in 2005 with Neale Heywood and Brett Tuggle replicating the vocal effects from the original recording.

Mirage

***Mirage*** is the 13th studio album by Fleetwood Mac, released on June 18th 1982. It followed a three year hiatus in which three group members had released their debut solo efforts. The album spawned international hits in Hold Me, Gypsy, Love In Store and Oh Diane. It topped the US chart, the group's third album to do so and their first to achieve the position since *Rumours* (1977), and peaked at #5 in the UK.

## Recording

The album, recorded at the famous Chateau D'Herouville in France, was a deliberate return to basics after the ambitious sounds of *Tusk* (1979). It featured guitarist Lindsey Buckingham collaborating increasingly with producer Richard Dashut on songwriting. Keyboardist Christine McVie also wrote collaboratively with outside personnel, something she would do with increasing frequency over her later career.

## Additional material

Two other Buckingham/Dashut songs recorded for the album, Goodbye Angel and Teen Beat, would later appear on the 1992 compilation 25 Years: The Chain. A longer mix of Teen Beat and a completely different mix of Goodbye Angel would appear on the deluxe edition of Mirage in 2017.

## Aftermath

After the supporting tour, band members took time to work on solo projects, with Mick Fleetwood recording I'm Not Me with his band Mick Fleetwood's, Zoo, Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie each releasing their second solo albums in 1984 and Stevie Nicks releasing two hit albums, The Wild Heart (1983) and Rock a Little (1985) both of which led to major hit singles and successful tours.

The next Fleetwood Mac album, *Tango in the Night*, did not emerge until 1987.

Running Through the Garden

**Running Through the Garden** is a song written by Stevie Nicks, Ray Kennedy and Gary Nicholson and recorded by Nicks with Fleetwood Mac for their 2003 album Say You Will. Nicks was inspired to write the lyric after reading the short story *Rappaccini's Daughter* by the 19th Century American novelist Nathaniel Hawthorne.

Significantly, both the song's co-writers had collaborated on songs with other members of Fleetwood Mac. Ray Kennedy had provided music for Mick Fleetwood's spoken poem These Strange Times (1995) while Gary Nicholson had co-written the song Deal With It with Billy Burnette for the 1997 Bekka & Billy album.

Leather and Lace

**Leather and Lace** is a song written by Stevie Nicks in and recorded by her in duet with Don Henley for her 1981 solo debut Bella Donna. Released as a single, it peaked at #6 on Billboard.

According to the sleevenotes of her TimeSpace compilation, song was originally meant to be given to the husband and wife country duo of Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter. Nicks held the song back for herself when the couple announced they were divorcing (though they would remain together until Jennings' death in 2002). Their 1981 album still bore the title *Leather and Lace*, despite not including the song.

The 1975 copyright date on the album appears to contradict this statement however.

Gary Moore

**Gary Moore**, born Robert William Gary Moore (April 4th 1952-February 6th 2011) was a guitarist/singer/songwriter/bandleader from Belfast, Northern Ireland. In his early years as a musician he was mentored by Peter Green. Green was given an acknowledgement on the rear of Moore's band Skid Row's debut album. Skid Row were managed and produced by Clifford Davis who was Fleetwood Mac's original manager. The connection between Green and Moore was solidified when Green sold Moore his 1959 Gibson Les Paul guitar

Over the coming years Moore became well-known for his on-and-off connection with Thin Lizzy and their bassist/frontman Phil Lynott (who also counted the Green-era Mac as an influence). From the 1980s onwards he concentrated mostly on his solo career gaining a following for his work in the hard rock genre. It was in 1990 that he released the album *Still Got the Blues* which, as its title suggested, featured a shift of genre to a blues-rock style of playing which would come to define Moore for the rest of his life. The album featured a cover of the Peter Green-penned Fleetwood Mac number Stop Messin' Round with additional verses. Moore continued in this oeuvre with *After Hours* in 1992.

In 1995 Moore brought out the album Blues for Greeny featuring renditions of Green's songs both with Mac and John Mayall's Bluesbreakers. All Moore's playing on the album was on the guitar Green had sent him (now owned by Kirk Hammett of Metallica).

Moore died of a drink-related heart attack on February 6th 2011.
Billy Burnette (1972 album)

**Billy Burnette** is the self-titled debut album by the musician of the same name, released in 1972. It is not to be confused with the identically titled albums released in 1979 and 1980 respectively.
