Fleetwood Mac Biography

It would be enough to say that Fleetwood Mac’s best-known album, Rumours, sold more than 25 million copies. But the band’s achievement reaches far beyond that, with sales exceeding 100 million copies of its albums in total.

Growing from its roots as a British blues band, known at times for twenty-minute numbers during its live performances in the 60s and 70s, Fleetwood Mac is better known for some of the best-selling three-minute songs from its later years.

The Fleetwood Mac that we all know and love today first came together in 1974 when Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks were invited to join Mick Fleetwood, John McVie and Christine McVie.  Together, Fleetwood Mac accumulated sales totaling five million and their album Rumors won the Grammy Album of the Year.  Hits off the album included "You Make Loving Fun,” Go Your Own Way,” “Don’t Stop,” and “Dreams.”

Stevie Nicks launched her solo album, Bella Donna, in 1980, which featured “Leather and Lace,” and “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around,” and Fleetwood Mac returned with Mirage in 1982. The singles “Gypsy,” “Love in Store,” and “Hold Me” are the most notable achievements off that LP.

1987’s Tango in the Night marked the return of Fleetwood Mac, and – on the strength of the hits “Seven Wonders” and “Little Lies” – the album rose into the Top 10.  All Fleetwood Mac band members came together again in 1997 to record The Dance, an album that coincided with the first worldwide tour for Fleetwood Mac in more than fifteen years.

Fleetwood Mac was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998,

Fleetwood Mac toured Europe, Australia, and New Zealand in October of 2009, and more recently, Glee’s Episode 19 of Season 2, titled “Rumors,” featured six songs from Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 album.

A renewed interest in Fleetwood Mac was brought to a new generation, and the album Rumours once again found a home on the Billboard 200 at number eleven. Coincidentally, Steve Nick’s solo album In Your Dreams debuted the same week at number six.

Fleetwood Mac continues to discuss the possibility of future tours and projects.
