RIP Christine McVie


McVie's family said she "passed away peacefully" surrounded by loved ones at a hospital after a "short illness."

Off you go pretty birdy, just as I played "Songbird" at my mum's funeral as well. She will be missed dearly and hopefully playing songs in heaven with me mum by her side! RIP "Songbird"!

I miss the Songbird already.  When Stevie Nicks joined Fleetwood Mac one would think that Stevie and Christine would be rivals.  Christine was a class act and took Stevie under her wing (literally as they lived together) and mentored her.  I understand they were still very good friends.

 

I read a very interesting book "Making Rumors" written by the sound engineer Ken Caillat.  Excellent read and Christine McVie of course was a main character. This is a good place to learn more about the Songbird.  Miss you already.

What a loss of a great singer, musician, and songwriter. Very sad, but her music will continue to give joy to her fans, me being one of them.

RIP Christine

My favorite FMc was Bob Welch. Excellent solo career too. Just love his Man Overboard album. Totally overlooked.
