 Listen for yourself. December 23, 2009
BetteDavisWannabe (Michigan)
The author of this book claims to know everything about each song Fleetwood Mac has ever made and frankly, as an avid FM fan, I think this author really knows nothing. The author explains the feel of each song in a very pessimistic and sometimes sarcastic way, and he often fails to notice important nuances that Fleetwood Mac is famous for, and when he does notice them, he shoots them down as being overproduced or unecessary. As someone who has listened to pretty much everything this incredible band has recorded, I would advise those curious about FM's music to listen to it for themselves and create an informed opinion. Skip this garbage all together.

Good little book if you follow the music of Fleetwood Mac and are as big of a fan as I am. Easy to read and has some good photos of the band that haven't been seen before.

Why did this person bother to write such an overly critical book about a band he/she clearly does not like (apart from the early stuff). One track will remind some readers of the Smiths we are told, another uses a similar keyboard sound to Genesis! This is garbage. Each to his own opinion but, having loved all incarnations of FM, a lot of this book misses the point. Omnibus should be ashamed for including this in their usually excellent series.

The author takes the time to bash a good percentage of Fleetwood Mac songs, including Gypsy "a track that seems to wilt rather than conclude", Hold Me(their #4 hit) "an average FM performance {that} never really catches fire", several of Lindsey's Tusk songs "expendable" and "throw-away", and he definitely shows a preference for the Peter Green era. Good for PG era fans, fans of later eras---stay away.
