Christine McVie, uma das vocalistas dos Fleetwood Mac, morreu há três anos...
Christine Anne McVie, née Perfect (Greenodd, 12 July 1943 – London, 30 November 2022) was an English musician, singer and songwriter. She was best known as keyboardist and one of the vocalists of Fleetwood Mac.
McVie was a member of several bands, notably Chicken Shack, in the mid-1960s British Blues scene. She began working with Fleetwood Mac in 1968, initially as a session player, before joining the band in 1970. Her first compositions with Fleetwood Mac appeared on their fifth album, Future Games. She remained with the band through many changes of line-up, writing songs and performing lead vocals before partially retiring in 1998. McVie was described as "the prime mover behind some of Fleetwood Mac's biggest hits" and eight songs she wrote or co-wrote, including "Don't Stop", "Everywhere" and "Little Lies", appeared on Fleetwood Mac's 1988 Greatest Hits album. She appeared as a session musician on the band's last studio album, Say You Will. She also released three solo studio albums.
As a member of Fleetwood Mac, McVie was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and in 1998 received the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. In the same year, after almost 30 years with Fleetwood Mac, she left the band and lived in semi-retirement, releasing a solo album in 2004. She appeared on stage with Fleetwood Mac at the O2 Arena in London in September 2013 and rejoined the band in 2014 prior to their On with the Show tour.
McVie received a Gold Badge of Merit Award from BASCA, now The Ivors Academy, in 2006. She received the Ivor Novello Award for Lifetime Achievement from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors in 2014 and was honoured with the Trailblazer Award at the UK Americana Awards in 2021. She was also the recipient of two Grammy Awards.
(...)
McVie married John McVie in 1968, with Peter Green as best man. Instead of a honeymoon, they celebrated at a hotel in Birmingham with Joe Cocker, who happened to be staying there, before going on the road with their own bands. The couple divorced in 1976, but remained friends and maintained a professional partnership. During the production of Rumours, Christine had an affair with Fleetwood Mac's lighting engineer, Curry Grant, which inspired the song "You Make Loving Fun". From 1979 to 1982, she dated Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys. McVie married Portuguese keyboardist and songwriter Eddy Quintela on 18 October 1986. Quintela and McVie collaborated on a number of songs together, including "Little Lies". They divorced in 2003, and Quintela died in 2020.
(...)
McVie died in hospital on 30 November 2022, at the age of 79. Her death was announced by her family through social media. In a statement following her death, Fleetwood Mac said that she was "the best musician anyone could have in their band and the best friend anyone could have in their life". Fellow band member Stevie Nicks said McVie had been her "best friend in the whole world". According to her death certificate revealed in April 2023, McVie died of a stroke and suffered from metastatic cancer of unknown primary origin.

Peter Green, co-fundador dos Fleetwood Mac, nasceu há 79 anos...
Foi uma figura importante na "segunda grande época" do movimento blues britânico. B.B. King comentou: "Ele tem o tom mais doce que eu já ouvi; foi o único que me fez suar frio". Eric Clapton elogiou o seu estilo como guitarrista. Ficou conhecido pelo uso de flexões de cordas, vibrato e economia de estilo.
A revista Rolling Stone colocou Green no número 58 na sua lista dos "100 Maiores Guitarristas de Todos os Tempos". Seu tom no instrumental "The Supernatural" foi classificado como um dos 50 maiores de todos os tempos pela Guitar Player. Em junho de 1996, foi eleito o terceiro melhor guitarrista de todos os tempos pela revista Mojo.

Lindsey Buckingham nasceu há 76 anos
Lindsey Adams Buckingham (Palo Alto, 3 de outubro de 1949) é um cantor, compositor, guitarrista e produtor musical americano, mais conhecido por ter sido um dos integrantes da banda Fleetwood Mac de 1974 a 1987 e de 1997 a 2018. Fora seu trabalho com o grupo, o músico lançou seis álbuns solo inédito e três registos ao vivo. Como membro dos Fleetwood Mac, foi inserido no Hall da Fama do Rock and Roll em 1998. Foi considerado o 100º melhor guitarrista de todos os tempos pela revista norte-americana Rolling Stone.
Com Lindsey, os Fleetwood Mac tiveram o seu período de maior sucesso, após a transição de banda de blues nos anos 60 até o som pop rock que gerou o álbum Fleetwood Mac (1975), projeto que marcou a sua estreia. A sua participação e influência no grupo se tornou dominante a medida que o sucesso cresceu, estando responsável por parte da composições, arranjos e produção musical de álbuns como Rumours (1977), Tusk (1979) e Mirage (1982), os quais venderam, juntos, mais de 40 milhões de cópias no mundo. Em 1987, logo após gravar o álbum Tango in the Night, o cantor decidiu deixar a banda, retornando apenas em 1997 para o projeto ao vivo The Dance. Buckingham ainda permaneceu no grupo por mais 21 anos, gravando projetos de estúdio e ao vivo, até ser demitido em 2018. Em 2019, o cantor passou por uma cirurgia de emergência por problemas cardíacos.
Buckingham was in the same high school as Stevie Nicks but a year behind her. He started a relationship with Nicks after the breakup of their band Fritz. He then suffered from a bout of mononucleosis, which delayed their move to Los Angeles in 1971. They recorded a studio album together before joining Fleetwood Mac in 1975, while their relationship had broken down by 1977. The breakup was chronicled in a number of songs written by the two, such as "Silver Springs" and "Dreams" by Nicks and "Go Your Own Way" and "Second Hand News" by Buckingham.
Buckingham had his first child, William Gregory, with Kristen Messner on July 8, 1998. Buckingham then married Messner in 2000, and they had two daughters, Leelee in 2000 and Stella in 2004. Buckingham and Messner, who is a photographer and interior designer, have developed homes in Brentwood, Los Angeles, California.
Buckingham underwent emergency open heart surgery in February 2019. His wife Kristen said that "the life-saving procedure caused vocal cord damage, the permanency of which is unclear." He eventually yet slowly recovered at home.
