ARTIST BACKGROUND

About Fleetwood Mac

Fleetwood Mac's history crosses distinct musical eras, from British blues in the 1960s to the California-associated pop and rock of the 1970s. Changes in singers, guitarists and songwriters altered the band's repertoire over time. Peter Green's early work and the later recordings associated with Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie therefore sit within a changing group history. Rumours is a central album in the later period, while members' solo recordings remain separate from Fleetwood Mac's catalog.
