Bare Trees is the sixth studio album by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released in March 1972. This is their last album to feature Danny Kirwan, who was fired during the album's supporting tour. In the wake of the band's success in the mid-1970s, Bare Trees peaked at number 70 on US Billboard 200 chart.[1] The album was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 1988.[2]
Mick Fleetwood was particularly impressed with Kirwan's contributions to the album. 'It's a well-rounded album. Like Lindsey, Danny had the chops with layering techniques, and the ability to know what's right and wrong in the studio.'[3]

'Sunny Side of Heaven' was an instrumental, which, at the time, was mixed in with some radio station sign-offs.[citation needed] The piece was also performed with Lindsey Buckingham on guitar for some shows in the mid 1970s.[4]

'Spare Me a Little of Your Love' became a staple of the band's live act from 1972–1977. It was also covered by Johnny Rivers on his studio album New Lovers and Old Friends in 1975. Jackie DeShannon recorded a version for her 1972 album Jackie although this did not make the final cut and was not released until 2015.

The final track on the album, 'Thoughts on a Grey Day', is not a Fleetwood Mac song, but a monaural recorded poem written and supposedly 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.'[6]
