    One of the best Albums ever written. They were all breaking up, cheating taking way to many drugs and destroying themselves and each other all while writing this album. The pain, love and despair of them all runs right through thus whole album.

      Stevie Nicks makes her ex play guitar while she sings about his infidelity.
      Anyhow... Fleetwood Mac has been around since the 60s and the lineup kept changing except for 2 of the founding members... Mick Fleetwood and John McVie (McVie being the Mac in the band name).
      The mainly final lineup in 1975 (When Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks were recruited) was: Mick Fleetwood, John McVie and his wife Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, and Stevie Nicks.

I can’t recall where Mick Fleetwood’s drum part came from. Stevie went home from their day of jamming and wrote the lyrics, which were a little bit angsty. The took all the great lines from her lyrics and created a less sobby song into one of the best songs in rock.

    The Chain is really holding the whole band together. There was multiple breakups within the band at the time, they could have easily have been done after the first or second album with Stevie and Lindsey on it. This is their only song that credits the entire band as song writers. They each had elements of the song they were working on and put them all together for The Chain. That's why it sounds like it's different songs.

    • @allengator1914
      @allengator1914 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Stevie wrote the lyrics and the song is about the demise of the relationship between her and Lindsey. The reason the entire band is credited is because "The Chain" is a conglomeration of previously rejected material from the band that was literally stitched together by cutting and splicing tapes of other compositions together by the studio engineers.

    You can't beat the three-part harmonies on the verses, with Lindsey Buckingham, the guitarist (is the guy) then Stevie Nicks, and Christine Mcvie (on keys) singing harmony. The song is about the band. During the recording of Rumours, Stevie and Lindsey broke up from a long relationship, and Christine McVie, divorced her husband John (the bass player) and they couldn't break the chain because they were in the middle of creating an amazing album that is one of the best-selling albums of all time. The three vocalists all wrote songs, and the most reliable hit-maker was actually Christine McVie. You should check out You Make Loving Fun which she wrote and sang off Rumours.

    This song in England is synonymous with the BBC's motor racing coverage, my mind is automatically catapulted straight back to Murray Walker and the 70s/80s!
    'Rumours' is definitely my desert island choice, never get bored with hearing it. My favourite song is "Go your own way" - the lifespan of a whole relationship rolled up in one song - perfectly bittersweet.

Peter lost it by' taking acid. Danny became a drunk and Jeremy joined a Cult in THe USA so Fleetwood Mac re-invented themselves with a transatlantic line up which we all know.
