Suicide at 65.

Bob Welch, a former member of Fleetwood Mac who went on to write songs and record several hits during a solo career, died Thursday of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, police said. He was 65.

Police spokesman Don Aaron said Welch’s wife found him with a chest wound at their south Nashville home around 12:15 p.m.

Welch was a guitarist and vocalist for Fleetwood Mac from 1971 to 1974. He formed the British rock group Paris in 1976, and had hits including “Sentimental Lady” in 1977 and “Ebony Eyes” in 1978. Fleetwood Mac’s Christine McVie and Lindsey Buckingham did backup vocals on “Sentimental Lady.”

From what I understand, he had a spinal problem and no real chances of be an invalid and he didn’t want to that taking care of him on his wife.

Shame that his fued with Mic Fleetwood kept him from being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with the rest of the band.

RIP Bob.
