Reclusive Fleetwood Mac co-founder Jeremy Spencer has cancelled dates on what was to be his first tour in 43 years, due to stress issues that have impacted on his health.
Spencer, who quit Fleetwood Mac in 1971 to join the religious group Children of God, now called The Family International, has abandoned his plans to tour the US and returned to Ireland for treatment.
A statement released through the guitarist's publicist reads: "I have recently been under considerable stress due to unrelenting demands on my life and time.
"It has now resulted in potentially serious health problems for which I am compelled to return to Ireland for treatment.
"I am distraught over having to postpone what was to be a memorable tour."
