A multi platinum record that is essentially a circular firing squad resting on a sentient pillar of cocaine. It’s an achievement on par with the pyramids.
It's such a good album. I like FM and Tusk as well but Rumours is near perfect (I say near because I don't care for Oh Daddy).
This is an amazing description and should be on the front of the cd
There was a Behind the Music or something like that and clips of them singing and just glaring at one another when they hit certain lines in a song.
People who directed quite complicated music videos featuring all of Fleetwood Mac afterwards and... managed to do this are actual legends. Somehow there is more than one of them.
I forgot how good it was, listened to it again recently. Then listened to it four more times in the space of 48-hours.
ABBA made an entire (late) career out of this one simple trick.
On a smaller scale, in the 2000s, A-ha were on the verge of being dropped from their label and only got one more chance because the lead single from the previous album had done OK in the UK. So they needed a lead single and didn't have one.
Mick Fleetwood played drums on a Spinal Tap tour, knowing his life was at risk, because he was desperate for the peace and professionalism they offered.
