It all comes down to the “extras” these deluxe releases include and I am glad to say this set does not disappoint. Many of these songs remain in the live set today and have not aged at all. Monday Morning, Rhiannon, Over My Head, Say You Love Me, Landslide, World Turning and the very underrated I’m so Afraid all speak volume as to the quality of the album. Re-reviewing the album, the songs speak for themselves. Interestingly, all singles released from the album were remixes or alternative takes, being slightly different from the songs released on the album. It became the second biggest album of 1976, falling behind Frampton Comes Alive! By Peter Frampton. Upon release in 1975 the album experienced modest success but continued touring and single releases finally saw the album reach number a year after release. Apparently, McVie told Buckingham, “The band is Fleetwood Mac. Within three month the band had recorded an album, although there was a lot of tension in the studio with Buckingham and Nicks on the verge of breaking up romantically and bassist John McVie noticing Buckingham being very assertive when it came to teaching other member parts of his songs, including the bass parts. Mick invited Lindsey to join the band but he would not accept unless his partner Stevie Nicks was also hired.
Mick Fleetwood had recently heard a tape by Lindsey Buckingham and particularly enjoyed his guitar playing. The Mac had had reasonable success in America but the Heroes album only made number 34 on the chart and the title track, released as a single failed to chart. After the Heroes Are Hard to Find album, guitarist Bob Welch announces he was leaving the band. Album Review – Fleetwood Mac (Deluxe) – Fleetwood Mac (Warners)ġ974 and Mick Fleetwood’s band Fleetwood Mac were a mess.
