I'm catching your show in the afternoon. Love the Fleetwood Mac tune. I have the Vintage Fleetwood Mac album -- a compilation of their Blues era recordings. This was one that stuck out among the standard (if respectful) R&B recordings. It stuck out because the drum and bass part is almost identical to the Zombies 'Time of the Season'. I don't know if this was a Mac self penned number or a traditional Blues number. I believe the Zombies number was recorded before the Mac.
