Fleetwood Mac's distinctive sound, first really captured in the
1977 record Rumours, launched the group into the commercial
stratosphere, and over the past three decades they have never
looked back. All along the way their dysfunctional relationships
have informed their professional success, as well as their personal
downfalls. By writing and singing about their problems, Fleetwood
Mac has transformed what breaks them apart into what keeps them
together. They have turned their dark relationship dilemmas into
glittering entertainment. In this highly entertaining chronicle,
author Donald Brackett provides readers with a special opportunity
to review the band's complicated history and reconsider the
personal, dynamic sources of their classic albums and enduring
hits. The band drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie
started in 1967 has gone through more personnel changes and
stylistic innovations than any other pop group in our cultural
history. The story of the group began when John Mayall and Alexis
Korner, the band's mentors, launched a mid-'60s British blues
revival. Ex-Mayall players Fleetwood and McVie then went on to form
an incendiary band of psychedelic blues under the name Fleetwood
Mac. But it was not until hearing a little-known 1973 record from
Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks that Mick Fleetwood heard the
future sound and true pop potential of his own group.
