  • Band Members

  • Career

    The original members of Fleetwood Mac formed in 1967 and released their self-titled debut album in 1968. After releasing a handle full of Blues-oriented albums, the band signed with Warner Bros. Records and went through a series of lineup changes before releasing their second self-titled album in 1975 (with new members Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks). The album was a success and included the hit songs "Rhiannon]" and "Landslide." Their 1977 album Rumors, which detailed many of the band's personal and emotional problems during that period, became their biggest hit to date and went on to win the Grammy award for "Album of the Year." Since their heyday in the late 1970s, the band has gone through a series of lineup changes and have continued to release albums and tour under the name Fleetwood Mac.

  • Personal Lives

    Despite their success, the late 1970s also saw the band members go through some tough times in their personal lives. While recording Rumors, John and Christine McVie's marriage ended and the romantic relationship between Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham came to a close. Along with the pressures of fame and the toll of drugs and alcohol, the band member's personal lives became a topic of discussion in the music press.
