"Oh Well" is a 1969 song by British blues rock band Fleetwood Mac. It later appeared on their third studio album Then Play On and their 1971 greatest hits album Greatest Hits.
"Oh Well" was composed into two parts; Part 1 is a faster paced track, while Part 2 is an entirely different instrumental piece, with a classical influence added into it.
"Oh Well" zoomed to #2 on the charts in 1969 in the United Kingdom and France. It also charted among the top 20 in Austalia, and among the top 10 in Germany and Ireland (#5), Norway (#3), and Austria and Switzerland (#6). "Oh Well" only charted at #54 in Canada and #55 in the United States.
"Oh Well" was later recorded by the band Deep Purple, for their album Turning to Crime.
