...course, who only gets high on his backbeat, or Bill Wyman, who only got in the band because he had a good amp in the days when equipment was scarce--in a way, they've always been more out of the band than in it. But the Glimmer Twins, Mick and Keith, and, in the early days, Brian, always knew where to go for "a little c-o-k-e."

Bass Player John McVie and Drummer Mick Fleetwood provide sonic propulsion as Buckingham's melodies range widely and easily between old English folk and avant-garde pop.
