    1972 studio album by Fleetwood Mac

    Bare Trees is the sixth studio album by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released in March 1972. It was their last album to feature Danny Kirwan, who was fired during the album`s supporting tour. The album peaked at number 70 on the US Billboard 200 chart dated 3 June 1972.[3]

    In the wake of the band`s success with the Buckingham/Nicks line-up in the mid-1970s, Bare Trees returned to the US Billboard 200 chart at number 182 dated 6 September 1975.[4] The album was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on February 9th 1988.[5]

    Mick Fleetwood was particularly impressed with Kirwan`s contributions to the album, saying that "Danny had the chops with layering techniques, and the ability to know what`s right and wrong in the studio".[6]

    Track notes

    "Child of Mine" alludes to Kirwan`s biological father not having been part of his life (Kirwan was his stepfather`s surname). "The Ghost" was later re-recorded by Bob Welch for His Fleetwood Mac Years and Beyond, Vol. 2 in 2006, but this version was only available on the digital edition. The flute noises on "The Ghost" were triggered from a mellotron played by Christine McVie.[7] "Homeward Bound" alludes to Christine McVie`s road weariness and desire "for a proper night`s rest in her own bed", according to Fleetwood.[8] "Sunny Side of Heaven" is an instrumental, which was later performed with Lindsey Buckingham on guitar for some shows in the mid-1970s.[9]

    "Bare Trees" shares a theme with both the album`s cover photography by John McVie and the closing poem "Thoughts On a Grey Day." "Sentimental Lady" was released as a single, and was later re-recorded by Welch (with Mick Fleetwood, Christine McVie, and Buckingham backing him) for his solo album French Kiss. Welch recorded the song again for His Fleetwood Mac Years & Beyond in 2003. "Danny`s Chant" features the use of wah-wah guitars. The track is largely an instrumental, although it does feature rhythmic, wordless vocals from Kirwan.

    "Spare Me a Little of Your Love" became a staple of the band`s live act from 1972 to 1977. It was also covered by Johnny Rivers on his studio album New Lovers and Old Friends in 1975.[10] Jackie DeShannon recorded a version for her 1972 album Jackie although this did not make the final cut and was not released on her All the Love: The Lost Atlantic Recordings album.[11] The lyrics for "Dust" were taken from the first two verses of a poem of the same title, written by Rupert Brooke in 1910.[12] Unlike W. H. Davies, who received a credit for the words to "Dragonfly", Brooke was not credited.

    The final track on the album, "Thoughts on a Grey Day", is not a Fleetwood Mac song, but a monaural recorded poem written and read by an elderly woman, Mrs. Scarrott, who lived near the band`s communal home, `Benifold`, in southern England. Bob Welch, however, said in a Penguin Q&A in 1999, "The spoken thing Mick does about `Trees so bare` was written, I think, by this sweet old lady that lived near Benifold ... Mick did an affectionate `schtick` on her to close the album."[13]

    Five of the ten tracks, comprising the majority of the music featured on the album, were written by Kirwan. "Trinity", another Kirwan song recorded at the sessions, was subsequently released in 1992 on the 25 Years – The Chain box set in stereo.[14] The 2020 remastered edition of Bare Trees from the 1969 to 1974 CD box set features the track in an alternate mono mix, alongside the US single mix of "Sentimental Lady", and a live recording of "Homeward Bound".
