This is the definitive history of one of the most successful bands of the 1970s and 80s, from a UK author. After initial success as a hit British blues band, Fleetwood Mac emerged as the most successful soft rock band of the 1970s and 1980s, dominating the mainstream music market internationally. Their albums, including the multi-million selling "Rumours", are now considered classics of popular rock, while singles such as "Rhiannon", "Dreams", "Don't Stop" and "Little Lies" have stood the test of time as landmark songs of an era. Covering the albums and tours, the successes and the awards, as well as the emotional ups and downs of their often volatile personal relationships, this book will present a unique view of a band whose name has become synonymous with both the triumph and the heartache of rock and roll stardom.
