The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac
Description
In 1975, with Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham joining
Mike Fleetwood, John McVie, and Christine McVie, Fleetwood Mac hit their
stride. Their first album together produced 3 Top 10 singles, hit 1, and sold
5 million copies. Their 1978 follow-up, Rumours, won a Grammy and is one of
the best-selling albums of all time. The hits just kept on coming, making
Fleetwood Mac a true super-band. Now their hits and history are celebrated
with the all-new 2-CD THE VERY BEST OF FLEETWOOD MAC collection! Also features
“Silver Springs” currently out of print! Enhanced CD feature exclusive video
footage of the band and a link to a private Web site for info and preview of
their upcoming new record! Spanning 22 years, this double-disc,
36-track compilation chronicles the initially unlikely and ultimately
triumphant conflation of a failing, veteran English neo-blues band (Mick
Fleetwood and the McVies) with a pair of mercurial American also-rans (the
baroque folk-rock genius Lindsey Buckingham and crypto-songbird Stevie Nicks).
The creative alchemy was immediate, as 15 epochal tracks (“Dreams,” “Say You
Love Me,” “The Chain,” “Don’t Stop”) from Fleetwood Mac and Rumours here
attest. They could have arguably repeated that mega-successful formula for a
decade, but chose a more musically expansive tack, represented “Sara,” Think
About Me” and the other core tracks drawn from the ambitious Tusk. While the
band’s megahit luster faded as the solo careers of Buckingham and Nicks took
flight in the ’80s, their power was still apparent in the dusky-bright pop of
Christine McVie’s “Hold Me” and “Little Lies.” Sequenced with compelling
listening rather than chronology in mind, this set also includes the strongest
of the Mac’s latter-day recordings (Nicks’s “Paper Doll,” “Silver Springs,”
and “No Questions Asked”; McVie’s “As Long As You Follow”), as well the
Lindsey Buckingham showcases “Go Insane” and “Big Love” from ’97’s The Dance.
