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. I go into Peter's life after Fleetwood and tribute quotes from different musicians after his passing, Jeremy Spencer being lured into a cult and the band being thrust onto Danny Kirwan's shoulders!

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.

On the latest Viral Music Hub, I have a long time friend and former coworker of mine Tyler Suarez on the show. We talk about his latest album Plutonomy and what concepts he drew from in its creation, his musical growth over the years, his day job as a kindergarten music teacher, and the impact that his Aunt Dawn’s passing during the Sandy Hook shooting had on his life and music.
