Bonus Episode 6: Mick Fleetwood sits down to discuss his legendary career with Fleetwood Mac, the music of his youth and meeting his idols

Iconic drummer Mick Fleetwood has been playing in bands professionally since the age of fifteen. He began on the English blues scene in the early sixties before cofounding Fleetwood Mac, the group that bears his name, in 1967. Anthony became Mick’s official biographer in 2015, when the pair wrote Mick’s autobiography Play On, and this chat captures their easy simpatico. Sitting in a Manhattan hotel a day before Fleetwood Mac played Madison Square Garden, the pair ran through Mick’s greatest hits and biggest influences in rock n roll. Split into early groundbreaking artists and the next generation to follow their lead, the conversation demanded two expressions of the same grape, Mick’s favorite, the ethereal Gamay. We chose a 2017 Morgon for its earthy, dark chocolate tones to reflect the originators and a fresh and spicy 2017 Edmunds St John Bone Jolly Gamay to reflect the innovators.
