Product Description: Oh, the heartache. Oh, the drug intake. And oh, the sales records they did break. It's all here in this 70-minute, 1997 chronicle of the making of one of pop music's biggest albums ever, Rumours. All five members of Fleetwood Mac's most successful incarnation are interviewed, and their comments are even more candid than the confessional songs ("Dreams," "Go Your Own Way" et al.) on the album itself; descriptions of the torturous process of making a record while John and Christine McVie's marriage and the Lindsey Buckingham- Stevie Nicks liaison were breaking up at the same time makes for compelling, if slightly discomfiting, viewing. Meanwhile, lest one forget that Rumours was terrific as well as revealing, plenty of attention is paid to the songs. Particularly fascinating (as with most Classic Albums packages) are the breakdowns of the separate instrumental and vocal components of individual tracks. A great tale, wonderfully told. --Sam Graham

Customer Reviews
feel the FM love
It's Fleetwood Mac, what can I say? Anything involving their music and history is a plus. You just gotta love it!!

ok...
We bought this DVD because we enjoy watching concerts on our surround sound system. But this is more a documentary then a concert. Like something you would see on VH1, Behind the Music. A little disappointing.

Fleetwood Mac goes way back as a RnB band, but when Christine McVie, and Buckingham and Nicks, joined, they couldn't have made a better move nor better music. It's a shame that Stevie Nicks said she gave up on having children to keep Fleetwood Mac going, but that's on her head.

Rumors, all Rumors!
I was so happy to receive this vhs item. All and more than expected.
The price couldn't have been better...unless free of course! But what a deal! Thank-you! All packaging, Quality and time of shipment was great!

One of the best of the Classic Albums series
If you enjoy the music, the story behind the making of this classic is very interesting. You get to hear firsthand accounts on the breakups and how Mick is the glue that kept them together as they were all unravelling (and in the 80s, they would reconvene for "Tango in the Night" due to Mick's own unravelling.
It goes into the Peter Green era and how Lindsey and Stevie joined the band, the smash success of the self-titled, and this follow-up to it.
You can definitely see some bitterness in the sweet fruits of success they enjoyed, and some of "The Dance" is shown, as is some of the "Rumours" tour, and you can see Stevie and Lindsey's drama unfolding on stage at that time with looks that kill towards each other.
The songs are broken down by its creators, Lindsey shows off his fingerpicking skills (underrated as a great guitarist, but he's filled Peter Green's shoes which were big shoes to fill), Christine sets up shop where she originally recorded "Songbird" and performs it to an empty theatre, which still makes the hair on your arms stand.
