You would know of the huge divisions amongst Genesis fans regarding B.C. (before Collins) and A.G. (after Gabriel) - those are my terms by the way. Is there similar hostility from fans of the Peter Green/blues era towards the Stevie/Lindsey era? Do those fans think like some very vocal (alleged) Gabriel fans that Stevie & Lindsey 'ruined' Fleetwood Mac & turned them into 'pop stars' etc etc?
My own view on this is that if you claim to like a band you should appreciate all eras. Have a preference, by all means, but don't dismiss the rest as 'rubbish' or whatever. I have only heard Albatross & Oh Well from the early days so I can't comment. I saw them play Oh Well, in fact. I thought it was great.
