The essential, illustrated, song-by-song story of one of the most enduring acts in rock music history.

Fleetwood Mac has a long and complicated history, strewn with tumultuous relationships and substance abuse. Yet despite their dysfunction they have produced hit after hit—“Dreams,” “Rhiannon,” “Gypsy,” “The Chain,” “Lies,” “Landslide”—and secured a spot as one of the most successful bands of all time, having sold more than 100 million albums.

Formed in London, in 1967 by guitarist Peter Green, drummer Mick Fleetwood and guitarist Jeremy Spencer, Fleetwood Mac started life as a British blues band. Core member, John McVie joined the line-up for their self-titled debut album, and then in 1970, McVie’s wife Christine Perfect joined as a keyboardist and vocalist.

Following further line-up changes—most significantly Green’s and Spencer’s departures due to drugs and god respectively, and even a bogus “Fakewood Mac”—Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks joined in 1974, giving the band more of a rock-pop sound. This line-up brought the band global success, most notably with seminal album, Rumours (1977); to date it has sold more than 40 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums in history.

In the following four decades, Fleetwood Mac has continued to put out music and perform sell-out shows, despite weathering personal fallouts, solo careers, drug addiction and firings. And the outpouring of love following Christine McVie’s death in late 2022 shows just how much the band mean to fans and critics alike.

Fleetwood Mac Everywhere is a must-have celebration of one of the most enduring—despite the drama— acts in rock music history.
