Description: | Blues rock from the United Kingdom/USA, full-length discography of seventeen albums released between 1968 and 2003. Fleetwood Mac are a British-American rock band formed in 1967 in London. Due to numerous line-up changes, the only original member present in the band is its namesake, drummer Mick Fleetwood. Although band founder Peter Green named the group by combining the surnames of two of his former bandmates (Fleetwood, McVie) from John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, bassist John McVie played neither on their first single nor at their first concerts, as he initially decided to stay with Mayall. The keyboardist, Christine McVie, who joined the band in 1970 while married to John McVie, appeared on all but the debut album, either as a member or as a session musician. She also supplied the artwork for the album Kiln House. The two most successful periods for the band were during the late 1960s British blues boom, when they were led by guitarist Peter Green and achieved a UK number one with 'Albatross'; and from 1975 to 1987, as a more pop-oriented act, featuring Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Fleetwood Mac's second album after the incorporation of Buckingham and Nicks, 1977's Rumours, produced four U.S. Top 10 singles [ including Nicks' song 'Dreams' ], and remained at No.1 on the American albums chart for 31 weeks, as well as reaching the top spot in various countries around the world. To date the album has sold over 45 million copies worldwide, making it the fourth-highest-selling album of all time. The band achieved more modest success in the intervening period between 1971 and 1974, when the line-up included Bob Welch, during the 1990s in between the departure and return of Nicks and Buckingham, and during the 2000s in between the departure and return of Christine McVie. In 1998, selected members of Fleetwood Mac were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and received the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. The band has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide, making them one of the best-selling bands of all time. In 2014, Christine McVie rejoined the band. Fleetwood Mac At MySpace 1968 Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac 1968 Mr. Wonderful 1969 Then Play On 1970 Kiln House 1971 Future Games 1972 Bare Trees 1973 Penguin 1973 Mystery To Me 1974 Heroes Are Hard To Find 1975 Fleetwood Mac (U.S. Deluxe & Expanded Edition) 1977 Rumours 1979 Tusk (2 CD) 1982 Mirage 1987 Tango In The Night 1990 Behind The Mask 1995 Time 2003 Say You Will (2 CD Deluxe Edition) What happened here was that Lindsey was working on a solo album and he invited the Fleetwood/McVie rhythm section to play on it. Things went so well that Lindsey suggested they turn it into a Fleetwood Mac album, and as usual Stevie was all for that, though Christine was not, quietly slipping into the shadows after years of service a la Bill Wyman. The talented singer/songwriter/pianist is missed, but her absence also gave Buckingham and Nicks more room to stretch out, plus less piano and more guitar (especially more Lindsey Buckingham guitar) is something I'll always be in favor of. Fortunately, Buckingham and Nicks are on their game for the most part, as this is a consistently strong album, albeit one that would've been even stronger had maybe four or so songs been cut and the album been trimmed from 76 minutes to 60. The band also curiously sticks to the overly slick, synthesized sound that had marred much of their '80s work, but like say Tango In The Night this album is still strong enough to largely overcome my nitpicks about the production (which was overseen by Buckingham with help from Rob Cavallo and John Shanks). Reviews were mixed, and the album lacked any major hits, but it did hit #3 on the U.S. Billboard chart and for my money it's the best Fleetwood Mac studio album since Tusk and maybe even Rumours. After all, I'd say that about 1/3 of the album ranges from decent to good, and that a good 2/3 of it is very good or better. Among the highlights are the album opener 'What's The World Turning To,' a catchy Lindsey rocker with the band's trademark airy harmonies, which are still stellar even without Christine. Lindsey's 'Murrow Turning Over His Grave' is a strange one but it's excitingly experimental, with good bottleneck guitar, multi-tracked vocals, harsh synth guitars, loud drums, and some serious guitar heroics adding to a track that had me scratching my head at first but which is now a firm favorite. Both of these songs, which share a similar theme (the world's going to hell as we've lost our moral compass), are surprisingly political given that Fleetwood Mac has rarely veered into those waters, and Nicks' first song continues in that vein. Fortunately her haunting, evocative 'Illume (9/11)' is an elegant, eminently worthwhile 9/11 track, and the hooky, non-political 'Throw Down' is even better, being a melodic, breezy number in her best 'Dreams'/'Gypsy' style. This song is mellow but grooves, and the same could be said about much of the album, as the McVie/Fleetwood rhythm section remain as reliable as ever; their meaty rhythms highlight Lindsey's 'Miranda,' another quirky pop song (but it is pop) on which his guitar heroics again seal the deal. Also notable are Stevie's 'Say You Will,' a melodic mid-tempo soft rocker with the band's customary laid-back West Coast vibe, and Lindsey's 'Peacekeeper' (these were the album's two singles), a moody, groovy rocker on which Stevie sings in the background and both of them deliver another hooky harmonized chorus. Without getting into too many more track-by-track descriptions, I'll note that I'm also partial to Stevie's comparatively rocking 'Running Through The Garden,' Lindsey's 'Steal Your Heart Away' and 'Bleed to Love Her,' a pair of catchy mid-tempo pop ballads (the latter a remake from The Dance), and Stevie's 'Goodbye Baby,' a lovely, almost whispered ballad that provides a classy exit to a classy pop rock album. But really, there is precious little filler on the album, as even a lesser track like the at times gratingly obnoxious 'Come' is salvaged by Lindsey's guitar solo towards the end. On the whole, this album is better than I expected it to be, as its flaws (slick production, overly generous length, Stevie's voice not being what it was) are easily to overlook given the strong overall quality of the songs and the equally strong performances from a band whose winning chemistry remains intact despite the absence of Christine McVie. All in all, Say You Will was another feather in the cap of a band that continues to add important chapters to a book that has been closed and reopened many times over.
