ROCK TO WINEMAKER

Mick Fleetwood: Musician and Winemaker.
KCPW.ORG
(KCPW News) Mention the name Mick Fleetwood to most and they'll recognize him as the co-founder and drummer of the rock band Fleetwood Mac. But Fleetwood is making other headlines both on stage and off. He's just released an album of blues songs with the aptly titled Mick Fleetwood Blues Band, and he is entrenched in the business of selling his own line of fine wines. Fleetwood is in Salt Lake City for a Fleetwood Mac concert tonight at Energy Solutions Arena. He sat down with KCPW's Eric Ray to chat about how he went from rock star to winemaker.

Oh Stevie, how could you?

Fleetwood Mac made a long-awaited return to LA last week, allowing a fact-finding visit to the cheap seats sideways-on to the stage.

This revealed that Stevie Nicks now benefits from a TV next to her microphone, screening lyrics to Go Your Own Way, Dreams, and all the other old hits.

Ms Nicks is 61, and those years of rocking and rolling have no doubt taken their toll on her memory. But an autocue feels rum: Mac fans are surely entitled to expect better than a glorified version of karaoke.

[ I say who cares.... as long as she's present and singing away...]
