On Part 5 of the history of Fleetwood Mac, I delve into the group hiring Californian guitarist Bob Welch to replace Jeremy Spencer and the different sound he brought into the group, Welch's simmering dissent and personal disconnect with his bandmates, and the 1971 release of the group's fifth (and first with Bob Welch) album, Future Games!

On Part 3, I talk about Peter Green's last song he wrote for Fleetwood Mac, The Green Manalishi (with the Two Prong Crown) and how it was indicative of his mental health struggles and eventual departure from the band.

On episode 2 of Viral Music History's series on Fleetwood Mac, I talk about how Peter Green and the rest of Fleetwood Mac discover their newest guitarist, 18 year old Danny Kirwan. The band starts to shift a little creatively during this time with Danny's addition with singles Albatross and Oh Well, and Peter Green and Kirwan's only full length release together, Then Play On. Unfortunately, drug use starts to take its toll on the group's mental health during this period and I start discussing the potential fallout from all of this.
