I remember when fleetwood mac were inducted into the rock hall of fame, and they didn't include him. Think he wrote a load of the songs off the first three albums.

RIP.

Just saw that he seems to have taken his life due to a spinal operation that crippled him. He left a note for his wife saying "I can't do this to you". Sad stuff.

As a long time heroin addict there would have been a big issue in using painkillers following surgery too.
