Chillin’ Out On Board Of The Floating Hotel

 

Haim & Taylor Swift

Welcome on board of the floating hotel! This mix is slightly different from the ones I usually make. My intention was to put together a chill wave mix, but I threw in some yacht rock and funk as well. In the end it has become quite eclectic. I hope you will enjoy!

When Jeremy Spencer left Fleetwood Mac overnight to become a member of a Christian sect, guitarist Bob Welch replaced him and played on several albums during the first part of the 1970s. After Mick Fleetwood had asked the duo Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to join the band, Welch started a solo career. He made some well-received albums until 1983, but sales steadily declined and he eventually became a songwriter in Nashville. During the 1980s he had to cope with a serious drug addiction. In 1994, he filed a lawsuit against Fleetwood Mac, claiming he was underpaid royalties during his employment. The case was settled out of court, but Welch stated that Fleetwood Mac took revenge by having him excluded from the band's 1998 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction. He was the only early member not honored. Bob Welch died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at his home in Nashville in 2012, at the age of 66.
