Musician

The Resume

    (July 4, 1948- )
    Born in Hartlepool, England, United Kingdom
    Guitarist for Fleetwood Mac (1967-71)
    Recorded the solo albums 'Jeremy Spencer' (1970), 'Jeremy Spencer and the Children' (1972), 'Flee' (1979) and 'Precious Little' (2006)

Why he might be annoying:

    His unwillingness to play on Peter Green's songs forced Green to add a third guitarist, Danny Kirwan, to the band.
    His raunchy antics onstage got Fleetwood Mac banned from the Marquee Club in London.
    He left the band by leaving his hotel room and failing to show up for the evening's concert.
    Mick Fleetwood suggested that he had never recovered from a mescaline trip earlier in the tour.
    He joined the cult the Children of God.
    He has been accused of sexually abusing children, including his own kids.
    Even before joining the Children of God, he liked them on the young side: he got his first wife pregnant when she was only 15.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was a talented slide guitarist.
    He said of his departure from Fleetwood Mac, 'The way I left was wrong and a mistake. I should've told them right away, but I was desperate.'
    He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Fleetwood Mac.
    Several of his children formed the band JYNXT.
    The sexual abuse allegations have never been proven in court.
