I just learned that Christine McVie has died aged 79, another one of my music hero's has departed the stage for the last time. I loved Fleetwood Mac from the first moment I listened to Rumours back in 1977, it felt like an LP of it's time and seemed to capture the zeitgeist of the moment as all classic compositions do. It's an interesting fact that McVie wrote many of the songs, she was a song writing powerhouse at a time when Women's positions in business and entertainment was only just getting going, you could say ahead of her time, I'd prefer to simply say a rare talent.
