A statement from Christine's family released reads, "She passed away peacefully at hospital this morning, Wednesday, November 30th 2022, following a short illness. She was in the company of her family. We kindly ask that you respect the family’s privacy at this extremely painful time, and we would like everyone to keep Christine in their hearts and remember the life of an incredible human being, and revered musician who was loved universally."
I have never been a fan of female vocalists. That said I saw live in concert Linda Rhonstead, Dolly Parton, Fleetwood Mac. Don't care for Stevie Nicks but Christie was wonderful. The previous two mentioned sounded like Angels singing.
ReplyDeleteNot a majority opinion Im sure, but I always thought she had a better voice than Nicks
ReplyDeleteI'm with you Hoss . I can not stand stevi nicks .If a Fleetwood Mac song comes on I generally turn the station But ,I liked McVie.
DeleteYou got it, Hoss. “Warm Ways” is my favorite. Beats any of Nicks’ stuff any day.
DeleteFeeling older every day.
ReplyDeleteBest band ever ruined by letting the women take over. I liked FM in early years when she was only woman in it.

She was one of the most underappreciated singers ever. I've always thought that she and Allison Krauss have the most beautiful voices of all.
ReplyDeleteDamm, I really Liked Christine McVee, She had a really nice voice much softer than Stevie. I loved her solo album(s)
ReplyDeleteYeah, Christine McV had a wonderful depth to her voice that WAS the voice of the Mac for years. Stevie Nicks had a hell of a voice too. Till she n Lindsey Buckingham joined Fleetwood Mac and she could afford the amounts of blow it took to destroy it. If you can find it give the album 'Buckingham/Nicks a listen.
ReplyDeleteI second your recommendation of Buckingham/Nicks.
DeleteI preferred Christine's voice, Stevie is a little too nasal for my taste, but Stevie did a great job in the above album.
Her voice had a lot of depth and color and I miss her already. Just wondering if she had the clot shot. I think many performers were sorta forced into it in order to perform live.
ReplyDeleteHer maiden name was Christine Perfect and before she joined Fleetwood Mac she sang the blues. Here she sings the Etta James classic with Chicken Shack.
