---------- Biography ------------------
Fleetwood Mac, formed in 1967, initially began as one of Britain's
great blues-influenced rock ensembles. Over the course of many
lineup changes and a relocation to Los Angeles in 1974, "Big Mac"
evolved into one of the most successful pop/rock units in commercial
music history.
During the early years, Fleetwood Mac endured a succession of
unstable (but brilliant) lead-guitarist/singer/songwriters in Peter
Green, Danny Kirwan, and Jeremy Spencer. Green and Spencer
eventually jumped ship for cultish religious pursuits, and Kirwan
(who ended up in a psychiatric hospital) was fired in 1972 for
refusing to go on stage at a Munich gig. Green, in particular, wrote
some classics in "Oh Well," "Black Magic Woman" (later a hit for
Santana), and "The Green Manalishi (With the Two-Pronged Crown)."
Danny Kirwan contributed many of the standout tracks on albums like
BARE TREES, including the haunting "Dust," the ethereal "Sunny Side
of Heaven," and the propulsive title track.
Bob Welch, a Los Angeles resident, was brought on board in 1971.
During his time with Fleetwood Mac, Welch penned some standouts as
well, like "Hypnotized" and "Sentimental Lady." During all these
changes, drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie, and vocalist
and keyboardist Christine McVie (also a fine songwriter) provided
the glue for the proceedings.
In January of 1975 Welch left, and engineer and producer Keith Olsen
turned the band on to a tape of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks
(who had previously released a much-sought-after debut on Polydor
called BUCKINGHAM NICKS). They were hired onto Fleetwood Mac, and
the rest is history.
FLEETWOOD MAC, the first album featuring the new lineup, became a
goldmine, eventually hitting #1 in November 1976, fifteen months
after its release. After much inner turmoil, Fleetwood Mac put out
RUMOURS, which topped charts around the world and became one of the
biggest albums in history. Mac never duplicated the impact of
RUMOURS, but subsequent albums (TUSK, FLEETWOOD MAC LIVE, MIRAGE,
TANGO IN THE NIGHT) have been substantial successes.
Buckingham (who left in 1987) and Nicks have enjoyed solid solo
careers, and Christine McVie had a #10 hit in 1984 with "Got a Hold
on Me" from her self-titled solo album.
Fleetwood Mac reunited with two new guitarists in 1989, releasing
the lackluster BEHIND THE MASK.
In November 1993, confirming the departure of Stevie Nicks and
guitarist Billy Burnette, Fleetwood Mac announced the addition of
vocalist Bekka Bramlett and veteran singer, songwriter, and
guitarist Dave Mason to the band's lineup, joining Fleetwood and the
McVies. ~ Rick Clark
