Fleetwood Mac - Love or Hate?

[Shaelumstash]

Rumours era Fleetwood Mac:

Soft rock bedwetters
or
Essential to any self respecting pub jukebox?

 

[mexico1970]

Don't like the very old stuff that much (Some of it but not the majority of it) but Rumours is absolutely brilliant, every track a killer.

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

Rumours was the peak of their albums, probably increased with the soap opera of their relationships at the time.
My first concert when I saw them at Bingley Hall.
Great live band

 

[Sam Armstrong]

Owning a copy of Rumours has to be in anyone’s collection who’s 50+ along with Tubular Bells, Bat Out Of Hell, Out Of The Blue etc.

Anyone younger, who hasn’t listened/downloaded the album on a streaming service I strongly suggest you do so.

As has been stated, every track is superb and the stories behind the recording are fascinatingly interesting.

So it’s a “Love” from me

I’m well past 50+ and don’t own any of them.

 

[dickie davies]

Anyone who likes FM I recommend you go and see a tribute band called "Go your own way"
They are very, very good.

 

[PragueBlue]

I’m well past 50+ and don’t own any of them.

I'm approaching 60 and have Bat Out of Hell but none of the others.

I love the Peter Green era of FM they were fantastic, a blues band with No 1 hits, but not the girly version. Didn't like Rumours.

 

[denislawsbackheel]

Got the album.
Hate the band post Peter Green

 

[BlueMojito]

The album Rumours takes me back to a time in my life. Happy, young and few responsibilities. Great times. Love it.

 

[KS55]

Peter Green, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Danny Kirwen, Jeremy Spencer, Christine Perfect. That’s Fleetwood Mac.

 

[BlueHammer85]

Only know Rumours very well, few of their early stuff have heard the odd single.

Put me in the love category.

 

[chesterbells]

I’d rather jack

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

I'm approaching 60 and have Bat Out of Hell but none of the others.

Well I guess two out of three ain’t bad…

 

[City Hobgoblin]

That era (Mid 70s to Tango in the Night) they have a few outstanding tracks and an awful lot of filler.

 

[Marklr]

I lote them. Or have them.

 

[jimharri]

Brilliant band. As others have already said, to deal with the shitshow that was going on in their private lives and still put out an album like Rumours is unimaginable. Compare them to some of the bands on here who it's fashionable to like. No contest.

 

[blueparrot]

Like the Stevie Nicks Buckingham incarnation the best, the Bob Welch mid period version was good , the Peter Green apart from a couple of tracks got no time for, but 5hen don’t like any of that late 60 s blues British blue rock.

 

[discopop]

Love all the stuff the Green era and the madhouse Rumours and onwards stuff.

Buckingham might be as mad as a box of frogs but that lad can play.

Every single track on Rumours is perfect

 

[roman totale]

Rumours and Tusk are great. Everything else is shite.
