I've never listened to a Mac LP post '72 (no Green on the last couple but similar sound)
I figure I will check out Rumours some day but that day has not yet come
tune in the classic rock station, youre almost guaranteed to hear half of it

[color:green} I do like the song Angel from the Heroes Are Hard To Find album, but radio doesn't even go that far (even if it's one year before the self-titled one.)
The title track of that same album was an FM staple for years and might still be. Long after "Oh Well" and "Rattlesnake Shake" (from the Peter Green era) fell out of rotation, nine times out of ten "Heroes..." would be the only pre-Buckingham/Nicks track that rock stations would play.

The thing about some of these songs is that they make me nostalgic for a time and place that I've never been to or, at the very least, don't have an actual real memory for but the songs make me FEEL like I've been there. And want to go back.
im also a fan of the self titled right before rumors, with the sick "over my head", not to mention "monday morning" and "rhiannon". Cmon with the witch rock!
the early stuff is excellent in a very different way. blues jam in chicago vol 1 and 2 are solid.

Me.
I do NOT like Fleetwood Mac Rumours.
Really.
But it has more to do with the fact that my father was a huge fan and plyed their music a lot.
My father was a douche.
regardless, i cant listen to Fleetwood Mac.
or Pink Floyd for that matter.
Thanks 'dad'

I can't justify my irrational prejudice but I don't like it either.

Cue the Sid and Nancy clip where Chloe Webb (Nancy) catches a glimpse of herself in a mou-mou type thing, screeches "Ahhhggg I look like Stevie Nicks!" and disrobes immediately.
Even if I tried, I couldn't get a particular Houston area apartment from the early 90's out of my head, complete with its Holly Hobby-inspired, flower-wielding wannabe, sweet vampire Stevie Nicks devotees sitting on the floor smoking joints as candles and incense burned and fleeting boyfriends circled about drinking beer and plotting plunges. Of course the first rule of Fleet Club being that for every tender Almost Famous blonde there has to be at least one enormous friend of the wicked witch variety wanting to cast a dark cigarette spell if not a lipstick-smudged bearhug.
And yes, we'll be listeing to Pink Floyd later in the night.

Strangely enough, that is exactly the way I feel about 1960s sunshine pop...I was probably still in utero when Spanky & Our Gang released "Sunday Will Never Be The Same," yet I feel like I could have Been There When It Happened...

mylatency said:Netflix just added a slew of "classic albums" making of exposes on albums. Watching the "Rumours" one right now and made me think of this thread
I was real close to buying a couple of these. Glad Netflix finally stepped up and put some quality ish on the streaming side. Just added this, Steely Dan, Black Sabbath, Queen etc. Gonna keep me busy for a while.
Also
I went through a heavy 70's/80's soft rock thing the last couple of months and I ride for Rumours no question.
This still gets played at a lot of gigs. [media]http://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/1335843&show_artwork=true[/media]

Rumors is great, but "Then Play On" is where it's at for me:
