'73 flashback

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Back in ~78-82 i was into Bob Welch solo work. I didn't know dick about his history as a FMac

I saw a Welch show around that time period while he was riding the success of the French Kiss album which contained the Ebony Eyes single.


And speaking of the F-Maccers, word becomes public today that Christine's death was from 'a massive stroke brought on by an aggressive form of cancer from an unknown origin'.

Ah, my bad, then, I thought Welch first appeared on the next album (Mystery to Me, October '73). Turns out Welch was there as far back as '71.

Ebony Eyes a disco rock klassik
