Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac remembers a block of hash at a Guinness party, and the death of Tara Browne, which inspired John Lennon to write A Day in the Life
This is part of my Joe Jackson Interviews podcast "singles" series, lasting less than five minutes. During an interview we did for The Irish Times in the 1990s, I brought up three memories that might have left Mick feeling conflicted when he remembered his first time in Ireland in 1960s, being fired from The Bluesbreakers, a block of hash at a party hosted by the Guinness family - himself and Brian Jones chipping off lumps to put in their pockets! - and the accident that killed Tara Browne in December 1966, which inspired John Lennon to write, A Day in the Life.
