Fleetwood Mac drummer Mick Fleetwood on "Oh Well." OC:...great song. :22
"Definitely part and parcel of Fleetwood Mac. We still do it on stage. I believe we always will do it. Of course, it's one of Peter's songs -- I think it's a classic song. It holds up. It demonstrated his ability as a songwriter in no uncertain terms. And remember there's 'Oh Well, Part 2,' which a lot of people haven't heard or don't know about, that's somewhat interesting. A great song."
