Remembering Christine McVie

Hey there, readers. Yesterday, the world learned the shocking news of Christine McVie's passing. The music community has suffered a major loss, and I (as well as many others) am absolutely gutted that she is no longer with us. She penned some of Fleetwood Mac's greatest songs as well as some amazing songs of her own that will, no doubt, carry her legacy for years to come.  I would also like to remind people at this time to respect the privacy of McVie's family and bandmates as they grieve. Rest easy, Songbird.  - Olive Grace
