Bob Welch, a former Fleetwood Mac guitarist in the 70s died Thursday at his Nashville home of an apparent suicide, according to police. He was 66.
Born in Los Angeles, Welch had played in various groups before being recruited by the British blues rock-heavy Fleetwood Mac in 1971 after two of its key members, Peter Green and Jeremy Spencer, departed. He played guitar and sang on five albums during his tenure, starting with 1971's "Future Games" and 1972's "Bare Trees," which included the song "Sentimental Lady" -- a big hit for him after he went solo.
