Mick Fleetwood and John McVie Tie Together the Various Bands that Have Been Fleetwood Mac

Mick Fleetwood and John McVie don’t always get the credit they deserve. The pair not only weathered but drove the constant shift in personnel and style across the band’s nearly 60-year career.

I have been listening to the band since Rumours, the insanely successful 1977 album that produced seven charting hits. The album was a phenomenon and is responsible both for creating a crew of avid fans and an equally strong group of critics.
