My Take
Jeremy Spencer is one of those musicians whose life fascinates me as much as his playing. A founding member of Fleetwood Mac and a gifted slide guitarist and pianist, he then made one of rock's most startling exits, abruptly leaving the band in 1971 to join a religious community he remains tied to. That kind of swerve, walking away from the heart of fame for faith, is almost unimaginable. I am captivated by the coexistence of raw musical talent and uncompromising spiritual conviction in one person. People who defy the world's yardstick like that always pull me in.
