Mick Fleetwood on Fleetwood Mac: 'We Actually Love Each Other'

Jeff Giles — Fri, 17 May 2013 14:46:51 +0000

Much has been made of the romantic entanglements that drove Fleetwood Mac to the brink of breaking up in the '70s, but -- as Mick Fleetwood reminded us during a recent interview -- over time, all that water under the bridge has only deepened the band members' fondness for one another.

Fleetwood Mac Planning to Release More New Material

Dave Lifton — Sat, 11 May 2013 15:31:39 +0000

When Fleetwood Mac announced that they would release only a handful of new songs to coincide with their current tour, some thought it seemed like the act of a band on its last creative legs, grudgingly going into the studio in order to drum up interest in a series of lucrative concerts. However, in a new interview, Lindsey Buckingham said that there is more to come.

Lindsey Buckingham: 'Stevie and I Have Probably More of a Connection Now'

Jeff Giles — Wed, 08 May 2013 15:32:13 +0000

With Fleetwood Mac back on the road and playing new material for the first time in a decade, fans have reason to hope that the group's on-and-off momentum over the past few years might regain some measure of consistency. Those hopes should be reinforced by comments Lindsey Buckingham made in a recent interview with 'Rolling Stone.'

Fleetwood Mac, 'Extended Play' – Album Review

Michael Gallucci — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 16:17:58 +0000

The last time Fleetwood Mac made an album together, they were minus Christine McVie and enough good songs to fill its 75-minute running length. They’re still without McVie on their new four-song EP, but they fixed ‘Say You Will’’s biggest problem by keeping ‘Extended Play’ at an economical 17 minutes. And if it sounds more like a Lindsey Buckingham record than an actual band one at times, at least ‘Extended Play’ is the best thing released under the Fleetwood Mac moniker since 1987’s ‘Tango in the Night.’

Dave Swanson — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 15:45:11 +0000

After the huge comeback success of the live reunion album, 'The Dance,' in 1997, Fleetwood Mac were back in a big way. The obvious questions started flying, asking about the chances of a new Mac LP.

The album marked the return of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to the clan, but also saw the departure of mainstay Christine McVie.

Nick DeRiso — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 15:30:26 +0000

Dave Swanson — Sun, 31 Mar 2013 15:35:05 +0000

As 1972 rolled around, Fleetwood Mac were trying to re-invent themselves and move the band forward. 1973′s ‘Penguin’ album would do exactly that — but not before traveling a long, strange road. 1971 saw guitarist Bob Welch joining the ranks for the ‘Future Games’ LP. Both it and its follow up, ‘Bare Trees,’ helped the [...]

Jeff Giles — Fri, 22 Mar 2013 11:01:19 +0000

It's a little weird and unseemly, given how long ago it all went down, but the behind-the-scenes breakups that plagued (and perhaps fueled) Fleetwood Mac's classic 'Rumours' album remain a topic of intense fascination for many -- which is why Stevie Nicks delved once more into the end of her affair with Lindsey Buckingham during a recent sit-down with Oprah Winfrey.

Ryan Reed — Sun, 24 Feb 2013 14:37:23 +0000

There have been many Fleetwood Macs over the years: the late '60s blues-rock titans, the transitional folk-rock successors, and the unexpected crossover pop-rock mega-stars of the late '70s. But this complex game of musical chairs begins way back in February of 1968. That's when the band released their fascinating debut album, defining a new era of British blues.
