I bought this awsome record in Budapest when I was 18 in 1978 during my first trip abroad from EastGermany to Hungary. I thought I couldn't believe my eyes when I found my absolute favourite record at this Hungarian record store, because it was really not available in my country. I scraped together my last Forints and bought the record. But I didn't know how to carry my treasure on my EastGerman 150ccmMotorBike. I kept it warm and safe in one of my saddlebags and hoped it wouldn't break or wouldn't be confiscated by Chech or EastGerman customs. But though I crashed the bike twice a little on this 1000km tour home, my record remained unharmed. Today my favourite record has a place of honor in my record collection... When I open my record box it's just in front and number one to see. Sweet memories ! Thank You Fleetwood Mac !
I too love this record. I made my first trip abroad from the US in 1971, and at that time, record stores allowed you to listen to a vinyl disc before purchase!! I thought this was amazing...not the only thing different in Germany, but it helped me understand how different things are in other countries (Canada, at that time, was more like the US). I found a new Neil Young album (Harvest) that had not been released in the US. Not directly a Fleetwood Mac story...but I think you understand, it was a similar experience to you finding your favorite record outside of E. Germany! Rumours reminds me of a different period in my life...an equally transformative, and this album takes me right back there.
Incredible story. I am so glad you were able to keep this record and bring it with you home. It's one of my favorite albums of all time. All songs are excellent...and who can say that of many groups out there... This is one for the history books for sure. Thanks for your nice comment!!

I came here too. Just going to sit and listen to this gem of an album. One of the soundtracks of my youth. Very sad day indeed RIP Christine. Your music will live on forever for all future generations to enjoy. 😢
I remember hearing this album for the first time when it was released in the 70s. A friend played it for me. I was stunned because, as you have pointed out, yes, EVERY song on this album is a gem. We sat and listened to the entire LP, fully both sides all in one sitting.
I was 12 years old when this came out. I am now 59, and I still listen to it regularly. A great album by a great band during an era filled with great music…
With the 33. A lot of bands try them but nobody can sound like them. I been wit them since '75. Godspeed...Stay safe everyone. Cold in Phoenix today? Oh yeah! 🤠🏜🏝
That's a nice memory and thanks for sharing. I saw FM in 77 at Calder Raceway. I still have the ticket stub. I never bought rumours because it was being played to death on the radio. I got Tusk the week it came out. I also went to that tour in 1981.
When this album was released in early 1977, I had just turned 16. The following year, I was a senior, and one of my high school classmates who loved rock and soft rock introduced me to the genre by loaning me this album, a few by Queen, Styx, and a few others. As a Black girl growing up in the northeast Bronx, I sang in a gospel choir, in the choral group and gospel choir in school, and R&B and some pop music at home for fun. I listened to top-40 radio so that was the Osmond Family, the Jackson 5, Diana Ross, and also Barbara Streisand etc. When I heard Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" album, I ran it into the ground and had to go out and by my own. IN LOVE with them. Their music has withstood the test of time and will continue to do so. There are artists who have risen to phenomenal heights of success on the strength of one album and no matter what else they record, or how many awards they get, or how many successful tours they do, EVERYBODY wants to hear the music from that one album. For me, it's Fleetwood Mac "Rumours." I'm sure I'm not alone. There isn't a bad song on the album. There isn't a mediocre song on the album. It's like they were channeling angels or something when they wrote and recorded this thing.
I love your story. I was 15 on the west coast when this came out but grew up with Jackson 5, osmonds, all of it. Rock the boat! Oh 7th grade lol. I hope you still sing 😊
I love your story. I'm a 50 plus bloke from the UK and like all kinds of music...except jazz..but i never get tired of listening to this album. I know every word and beat of the drum. Its like a favourite blanket😂. Much love from over the pond.
@@chrisbennett8870 Peace, Light and Love to you from Manhattan - allegedly the heart of NYC! So funny - both of my parents are jazz pianists and I sing jazz and blues too! But it's all good. Music is the one universal language that connects all people on the planet - and I'm grateful about that!
This album is a masterpiece. Not only are the songs beautiful but the order they are in is perfection. As a very nearly 50 year old who's mum played this this all the time , I am so happy my children listen to it too. Hoping my Grandchildren to come will love it too. Xx
I'm 28yo, my late father always used to play this album on Sundays and Saturdays when we'd be around the house. Definitely has influenced my music taste. It's timeless, every track on it is either poppy and catchy or beautiful.
my mother loved this band and throughout my childhood she listened to this album on repeat...every single one of these songs I know the lyrics for. unfortunately she passed away when i was 11, but these songs....i see why she loved them so much. this whole album is actually a masterpiece.
One of My dad's favorite bands. I grew up on Fleetwood Mac. I play them (and Stevie ) in my office almost daily. Every song takes me back.....exactly what great music is supposed to do....
Don't you see? She left an album for you to sing along to with her for your whole singing life. So sing with the memory of a mother who sang the coolest songs in the world to her baby. I wish you Peace.
I’m 13…I get home with this album and immediately, as I’m listening, taking in every detail of the pictures of the band. I immediately go to my drawers looking for any long skirts, scarves, bandanas I could find to wear. The magic that unfolded from this one album made it just as much a part of my DNA as any family member. I’m 60 now…..nothing’s changed.
Hey girl, Cool story. I was really into Fleetwood mac and still am. I was 17 when my older sister bought this LP in 1975. I loved it and listened to it for years. It reminds me of new years eve 74, 75 when I got to kiss my all time flame that night. Never got to date or marry her darn lol! But I did get married and had 3 kids. I'm divorced for 16 years now, her idea not mine. I'm 65 and I must say I'm in pretty good shape. So I just thought I'd throw that out there. Don't expect a reply, have a good life and don't forget about the past! It was some really good times!!!
@@Camaroguy69I’m on my wife’s phone. I had a chance to kiss her in 79 but I didn’t. She is my everything. She was my first and me hers but we broke up in 82 I married her in 17 and been together ever since. She lost her leg in 19 and is in the hospital with the other one. So it’s not a fairy tail.
If you were around when this album was released - you certainly appreciate it's enormous importance. If you are younger and you hear it - you must appreciate how brilliant it is. Peace!
@@bettyhottenrott1974 But it wasn't on the album in 1977. It was too long for analog technology of the time, so it was replaced with I Don't Want to Know. Stevie was furious. So Silver Springs was released on the B side of Go Your Own Way.
i think, I'm the first visitor in 2024 ... I love this album, but don't miss the beautiful, great concert "The Dance". (DVD) RIP Christine McVie and a happy New Year to Fleetwood Mac and all Fleetwood Mac - fans. Greetings from Germany. (a fan, just 70 years old)
Fall of 77'... It's like yesterday, I was walking down the street with this album tucked under my arm on my way to see my girl, Teri at one of her babysitting jobs. Kids were in bed so we just cuddled on the couch loving touching & squeezing. These songs transport me back to that night in time and makes me wanna go back. Damn!
This was the first album I bought after I'd broke up with my first love. Many years later - back with her - I'm playing it again. For me, the greatest albums of all time!
I asked for this album for Christmas and I remember looking at it wrapped up under the tree knowing what it was and couldn't wait to open it !! One of the best albums ever ....
I Am your brother, though it would be closer to say he was born 13 months after Myself. From wherever you may raise your head; from your pillow or my stone . . . You are now and forever the greatest of thieves and there is no rogue or villain that ever carried such a pure heart as yours. It is a memory I carry for you . . . Least you falter in the proud steps taken toward the greatest redemption story ever told. 🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍 Some times people deserve something more than the Truth. RISE⛅️🌤️😎
Born in 1991, just finished reading 'making rumours' by ken callait. What a luxury to be able to come listen to this masterpiece of an album. Life is good.
Este álbum é de 1977, neste mesmo ano teve o Animals do Pink Floyd, duas obras primas daquele ano para não citar aqui outras...A década de 70 foi fantástica para a música!👍🇧🇷
Fine picks. There was no shortage of exceptional albums released during the 70's but two other standouts for me were Teaser and the Firecat (Cat Stevens) and Strung Up (Sweet).
Have a listen 2 and add Rory Gallachers Irish Tour 1974 live,but I agree with your choices. I was fortunate to see Floyd at Knebworth Dark side live. '75 I'm sure .
This is my first time listening to Fleetwood Mac. I was surprised at the number of songs that I recognised, but it was even more surprising how much I enjoyed the entire album
They put out a bunch of albums with different musicians, all of them were great. Blues at first then a transition period then this more popular stuff. All of it is great!
I was there when it dropped & I am here now. Rumours has always been just as it is - perfect, personal and timeless. If you have this music moving in your soul, you owe a debt of gratitude to this incredible group of artists.
Such a perfect album. Every song great! And a special nod to Christine's beautiful, soulful Songbird. Farewell angel. I'm 73 but the music from the sixties and seventies keeps me young in my head. Go Your Own Way still a favorite song, the drums, the vocals and Lindsey's guitar...he's such a great talent in every way! Perfection. ❤
The music world has lost a unique talent. R.i.P Christine McVie. You were truly a unique, and one of a kind. You will be missed. Passed away on 11/30/2022
Born in '84 here, always regarded Fleetwood Mac, Supertramp and the likes as "dad's music" now I'm listening to this whole album for the first time and I'm swelling up! These guys were DAMN GOOD! =One Love= -A
I'm your age and I've gotten into the habit of looking backwards in time for "new" good music. There you ll find. The music of nowadays is not even worth to mention isnt it.
I bought this album when first released, I still have it , I'm almost 71 hadn't listened to it in years, till today, and my god it still towers over anything you want to put up. Brilliant album by musicians hell bent on killing each other, how does that happen, magic.
I shall never ever forget, riding along with my friends, this album playing as loud as it could, we all singing along, 1977, I was 25 and boy those were the days my friends! Carefree, working and living for the weekend! This album will forever remind me of those days..and all of whom I was around then..I will never forget y'all..and thanks to music of this incredible album, can be transported if only for a while, to those glorious days! ❤💋🥂🌈❤
Those definitely were the days! I was born in 1976 but my mum loved Fleetwood. But since I grew up in the 80's, those were carefree memorable days of my life. Thanks for sharing your awesome comment! ✨
Born in "52 as well. Loved the Mac from the days of Peter Green until... They evolved, I grew up, and the world definitely changed! Miss those times and old friends who aren't around anymore.
The year & summer this album came out, friends invited me into their home to listen. We were all kids. It was hot & humid that day, so we closed the curtains, all found a spot either on beds or on the floor, laid on our backs & listened with our eyes closed & drifted off into a musical wonderland. It was simply brilliant. A memory that has stayed with me all these years. Christine Mcvie RIP we love you & are heartbroken at hearing the news of your passing. 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔🎸🎵🎶🕯
I bought this on a 8 track .This became my boyfriend and i favorite tape.ovèr the past 45 years from cassette, cd,and playlist.Never gets old like our love,and lovè of this group RIP Christine ❤❤ Thanks for the wonderful memories ❤❤
When this album was released in the spring of '77 I was in junior high & I thought I was extremely sophisticated because I listened to it. All these years later I still think I'm extremely sophisticated because I still listen to it.
All of them truly found their reason of existence and destiny in this life, and we were all fortunate enough to have shared it with them, the great Fleetwood Mac.....
You know when I was a kid I thought she sounded like a muppet. Her low register just made me cringe. As I've gotten older, I realize now that she's the best singer of the band and one of the best ever. Saw them in 2019 and she was the star of the show for me. I have a major crush on her. Beautiful person with an amazing voice.
I was 11 when this came out and my mom loved Fleetwood Mac. I have so many memories of driving all over Fort Worth, Texas with my mom blaring her 8-track with these awesome songs. Such great times!
A flawless album in my humble opinion. The songs still sound relevant after all these years and they are masterfully crafted and 41:15 performed. Rest in peace Christine, your legacy in the music world will be secure for many years to come. ❤
WOW just, WOW. I was 16 when this came out and it was on full rotation in our house. I haven't listened to the complete album in too long a time. Wonderful scenes and memories I had completely forgotten, came flooding back, hitting me deep in the feels. Perfection.
Yep, some great albums in the 70's. To think this and Eagles Hotel California came out the same year. I am the same age as you and to think of all the classic albums that came out that decade. Cheers!
My biggest memory of this album was when I was about 8 visiting a friend's place and their parents had this album playing everytime I visited. I was too you to know who it was and what they were singing about but new the sound was ahead of its time. In fact later when I was old enough I was surprised it was recorded when it was. Brilliant
Just joined the British army when this came out it felt great back there just as it does nowdays now I'm 60 music brings me so many happy memories ain't that a wonderful gift these artists have
I was 14 mibi 15 when I first heard this and discovered I loved this band since whenever I was in ma sisters I'd beg her to play it for me. She's with the angels now. So this is for u hen
Like so many others, I was in high school when this album came out. It quickly reached number on the charts and stayed there all spring, all summer (as we drove around), and into the fall...magical time indeed. Now, all these years and miles later, I think beyond the great music, these songs show the pain that these five people were going through and also, let us know that we have never been alone as we grew up and experienced similar pain. Magical music, magical band, magical people. Thank you Fleetwood Mac.
I was sixteen when this album came out. At seventeen I saw them 14 rows back on the floor. Indescribable! My fave band of all time and I love alot of music❤️
Went through 2 vinyl's, and 3 8-tracks of this masterpiece. True story-Drove my car off a pier in Norfolk while "Go your own way" blared out the speakers. Damn, the 70's were crazy. Best years of my life.
We had a good friend who absolutely loved this album. He lived next door to my husband and me, and every day when he came home from work, he would be blasting this song on his 8-track in his big silver van. You could hear him all the way down the street! He passed away a couple of years ago, but I'll think of our dear friend Carl forevermore whenever I hear these songs.
RIP lovely Christine. I just saw you in concert three years ago right before the pandemic. I see I'm not the only one curling up with Rumours in the wake of her sudden passing.
Musicians today dream of making this kind of music. I dare say that very few will ever achieve this level of musical excellence and mastery. Their combined efforts were off the charts then and now.
When I was a teenager there was a girl who I was madly in love with. We never made anything of it. She showed me this album in its entirety. Gives me shivers just thinking of it. I miss her a lot, we havent spoken in years, I have moved far away from home and never found anyone like her. Shes getting married and Im alone... guess thats how it works out for some. Brilliant album. Never let the one get away.
When I was a teenager there was a girl who I was madly in love with. We never made anything of it. She showed me this album in its entirety. She went off with a much more mature guy. I was distraught. I left home and started travelling, the World. I thought my life was finished before it had started. Hahahaha Now 40 years later I came back to the same area again, with my teenage daughter. This was after having, much to my surprise, met more than one girl/woman over the years. The teenage love walked by me in the street when I was in a pavement cafe. She recognised me hit me on my shoulder and asked how I was. Whilst no longer the svelte young thing of my memory a bit grey and still with the other guy(happily), it was as if the years fell away. One never knows how it will all turn out, funny. I still listen to this of course and it is still just as good as it was then. Nostalgia is a great thing, sometimes.
That is very deep. It resounds with me very much so because I have a very early and similar memory from the rumors album that that haunts me of a love not accepted my case we remain great friends and I wasn't aware that she had died at age 55 just 3 years ago until I dug deeper to find out why she wasn't responding to my Facebook post and messages. Imagine my shock to find out she had passed and I had no idea and to this day don't know what she died of! Perhaps you should write some music yourself you seem to have the knack for poetic, heartfelt wording.
One of the moments in time when magic happens, once you make an album like this it's both a blessing and a curse. Great songwriting, music, and vocals. Absolutely the peak of Fleetwood Mac..
Bought the album after seeing an advertisement on SNL back in 77. Such classic tracks. Perfection and not one bad track. Finally got to see them live in 1980, thankfully.
Convinced that this is the best album of all time. It's like a Greatest Hits collection. A group of talented musicians that took ugly personal tragedies and created a masterpiece.
I used to listen to this as my first CD in the eigthies, when I was a teenager :) Today I listened to it for the first time in years, thanks to that video, and it brings many memories :) Anyway, this is indeed a masterpiece, and I have to say (would you believe it ???) I had forgotten the insane emotional power (so moving !) of the sublime "Songbird" !! :)
I've Lindsey Buckingham live twice. He both times he ended with Go Your Own Way. Everyone was was on their feet, hands in the air, singing every word with many people, including myself, crying. This album means so much to so many.
In my opinion, Rumors is one of THE BEST ALBUMS EVER!!! 40+ years after these songs were written and recorded, they are STILL Incredible and relevent! I don't even listen to rock anymore, haven't in many years, but I will NEVER change the station if I hear a Fleetwood Mac song!! Christine was a friggin LEGEND!! I Pray she rests peacefully, and KNEW just how many lives she touched! And continues to touch!! I am blessed to have grown up when artists were TRULY artists! They sounded incredible live, and didn't even need all that studio equiptment to sound great! Watch Christine sing SONGBIRD...LIVE! Just her and a piano!
I remember this album opened up and it came with a picture of the group. My God Stevie Nicks was a Goddess with that Farrah Fawcett hairdo. Every young man was mesmerized by her Beauty. But the Music from 3 different lead vocals was enthralling. 4 top ten hits from this album. I was young and this album gave me hope and a spirit from that era that helped me through all my life. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. Bless the band and their families
I was 27 & a new widow with a 3yo and 5yo when I bought this. The "Landside" hit me in my heart. My bff had a huge poster of them, yep Stevie is a goddess, she is Rhiannon ❤🥲🕊and I can listen to the Chain forever & a day🌞
RIP Christine. I hadn’t listened to this album since I was very young and I still remember all the words to all the wonderful songs. What an album! Not one bad song on it.
i had no idea what an amazing album this was until recently. i didnt even know some of these were FM! My folks had this album and more, and i remember birthdays in SOCal growing up. After ppl went home, my family drank and danced into the night. I was born in 77 and am so grateful for FM. This album is perfect and such a nostalgic blast. i was door dashing last year and listened to Gold Dust Woman the bio while driving and heard all these back stories to the songs and themselves and fell in LOVE with all of them, even Lindsay. lol They somehow got up there thousands of times and its just staggering, the music. It WAS and IS real music. instruments and lyrics detailing the stories on a record, literally recording their lives. And giving us the gift and sharing those pieces with us out here who will never understand what its like on their side, but we see pieces in books and records. Thank god for youtube and folks back then carrying clunky ass video cameras hahaha RIP Christine McVie! You are so appreciated.
This album along with Carole King's tapestry.. Joni Mitchell's Blue album.. and Supertramp breakfast in America the best albums in my lifetime born in 64
when you buy a album like this that you cant stop playing and enjoi it every time you play it i think that tells you what a master class album this is this album never ages...thank you fleetwood mac
That describes the group. Peter Green was a great blues writer but they needed him to drop out to find this fantastic chemistry. They are all sensational!!
Dear beautiful souls, All my familyl live on Maui, Hawaii, Lahaina and all their homes burnt down in the fires. Please send prayers and positive energy so my family and all the people and all the animals and the beautiful land. Love your soul, sister Bonnie 💖🙏😻🐾🪽🌈🌺
I listened to this as a kid on headphones. Iiked music like this as my parents played this and other music alot. My dad died 22 years ago my mum is still alive and getting dementia. They were not perfect but I miss them and will go to look after my mum in awhile when her current partner gets surgery and will be their for both of them as I was lucky and got a great step dad. I'm slowly building my mums vast music collection. She has inspired me .

That's a nice memory and thanks for sharing. I saw FM in 77 at Calder Raceway. I still have the ticket stub. I never bought rumours because it was being played to death on the radio. I got Tusk the week it came out. I also went to that tour in 1981.

Absolutely! Love his plucking technique.

When this album was released in early 1977, I had just turned 16. The following year, I was a senior, and one of my high school classmates who loved rock and soft rock introduced me to the genre by loaning me this album, a few by Queen, Styx, and a few others. As a Black girl growing up in the northeast Bronx, I sang in a gospel choir, in the choral group and gospel choir in school, and R&B and some pop music at home for fun. I listened to top-40 radio so that was the Osmond Family, the Jackson 5, Diana Ross, and also Barbara Streisand etc. When I heard Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" album, I ran it into the ground and had to go out and by my own. IN LOVE with them. Their music has withstood the test of time and will continue to do so. There are artists who have risen to phenomenal heights of success on the strength of one album and no matter what else they record, or how many awards they get, or how many successful tours they do, EVERYBODY wants to hear the music from that one album. For me, it's Fleetwood Mac "Rumours." I'm sure I'm not alone. There isn't a bad song on the album. There isn't a mediocre song on the album. It's like they were channeling angels or something when they wrote and recorded this thing.
I love your story. I was 15 on the west coast when this came out but grew up with Jackson 5, osmonds, all of it. Rock the boat! Oh 7th grade lol. I hope you still sing 😊
I love your story. I'm a 50 plus bloke from the UK and like all kinds of music...except jazz..but i never get tired of listening to this album. I know every word and beat of the drum. Its like a favourite blanket😂.
Much love from over the pond.
@@chrisbennett8870 Peace, Light and Love to you from Manhattan - allegedly the heart of NYC! So funny - both of my parents are jazz pianists and I sing jazz and blues too! But it's all good. Music is the one universal language that connects all people on the planet - and I'm grateful about that!
You are spot on Rumours was my very first album I still have it. FM is one of the greats of all time
I was 14 then but remember it well. 👍
This album is a masterpiece.
Not only are the songs beautiful but the order they are in is perfection.
As a very nearly 50 year old who's mum played this this all the time , I am so happy my children listen to it too.
Hoping my Grandchildren to come will love it too.
Xx
I'm 28yo, my late father always used to play this album on Sundays and Saturdays when we'd be around the house.
Definitely has influenced my music taste. It's timeless, every track on it is either poppy and catchy or beautiful.
my mother loved this band and throughout my childhood she listened to this album on repeat...every single one of these songs I know the lyrics for. unfortunately she passed away when i was 11, but these songs....i see why she loved them so much. this whole album is actually a masterpiece.
yea my mom always playing this album as kid
One of My dad's favorite bands. I grew up on Fleetwood Mac. I play them (and Stevie ) in my office almost daily. Every song takes me back.....exactly what great music is supposed to do....
I'm so sorry for your loss❤❤❤
Don't you see?
She left an album for you to sing along to with her for your whole singing life. So sing with the memory of a mother who sang the coolest songs in the world to her baby.
I wish you Peace.
My Mom and Dad's favorite...I remember listening to the 8 track all the time #ImOld #RIPMomAndDad
Rest in Peace Christine McVie
Thank you for your art.
Songbird is beautiful.
Yes, Rest in Peace, Christine. Such a sweet part of the band❤
I bought this album 40 years ago in Nigeria, and still adore it till date. May the souls of the departed in this group rest in the lord bossom.
❤💯
I'm only in my early 50's ..so don't know most of these , but very drawn . Beautiful 😢
Amen, brother.....
I’m 13…I get home with this album and immediately, as I’m listening, taking in every detail of the pictures of the band. I immediately go to my drawers looking for any long skirts, scarves, bandanas I could find to wear. The magic that unfolded from this one album made it just as much a part of my DNA as any family member. I’m 60 now…..nothing’s changed.
Hey girl, Cool story. I was really into Fleetwood mac and still am. I was 17 when my older sister bought this LP in 1975. I loved it and listened to it for years. It reminds me of new years eve 74, 75 when I got to kiss my all time flame that night. Never got to date or marry her darn lol! But I did get married and had 3 kids. I'm divorced for 16 years now, her idea not mine. I'm 65 and I must say I'm in pretty good shape. So I just thought I'd throw that out there. Don't expect a reply, have a good life and don't forget about the past! It was some really good times!!!
I'm 60 also and still love listening to this album.
@@Camaroguy69I’m on my wife’s phone.
I had a chance to kiss her in 79 but I didn’t. She is my everything.
She was my first and me hers but we broke up in 82 I married her in 17 and been together ever since. She lost her leg in 19 and is in the hospital with the other one. So it’s not a fairy tail.
Lot of people like that! My sister got it for her grade 5 Pool Party! I witnessed slow dancing and kissing for first time!! hahaha
must be an Im 60 thing. lost my Gypsy 2 yrs ago RIP SUSIE XXXX@@peacefulinhabitant
Rest in peace Christine Anne Perfect,Fleetwood Mac's Songbird,creator of great music!Some tears running.Not many people do this on me.
did it to me....broke me down gooooooood....thank you for a great post.
If you were around when this album was released - you certainly appreciate it's enormous importance. If you are younger and you hear it - you must appreciate how brilliant it is. Peace!
I'm 16 and i fully appreciate how good this stuff is.
@@bettyhottenrott1974 But it wasn't on the album in 1977. It was too long for analog technology of the time, so it was replaced with I Don't Want to Know. Stevie was furious. So Silver Springs was released on the B side of Go Your Own Way.
Very well said I remember that day ..parents had to buy me 3 of them. Still got a vinyl copy to this day

RIP Christine McVie and a happy New Year to Fleetwood Mac and all Fleetwood Mac - fans.
Greetings from Germany. (a fan, just 70 years old)
à peine...
I'm listening to this album for the first time ever, and I'm 42. Never too late.
Fall of 77'... It's like yesterday, I was walking down the street with this album tucked under my arm on my way to see my girl, Teri at one of her babysitting jobs. Kids were in bed so we just cuddled on the couch loving touching & squeezing. These songs transport me back to that night in time and makes me wanna go back. Damn!
what a drag it is getting old-----mick
This was the first album I bought after I'd broke up with my first love. Many years later - back with her - I'm playing it again. For me, the greatest albums of all time!
I was 2 months old but still very nostalgic
@@kevbloor3625 i bought the "golden age of grotesque" by marilyn manson after my cat died. her name was squeeky.
Loving; touching; squeezing, are you sure you didn't have a Journey album tucked under your arm? LOL.
I asked for this album for Christmas and I remember looking at it wrapped up under the tree knowing what it was and couldn't wait to open it !! One of the best albums ever ....
It is most definitely a classic icon.
I totally thought you were gonna say "...and I opened it, and it was The BeeGees Saturday night Fever 🤒 "
@@CTID Another classic! LOL
I totally agree! This was classic rock at its best!
Agreed! One of the best

Boy, Songbird just brings me to tears every time. Christine was an angel.
RIP Christine 🥀🎵 Proud to have the original vinyl with poster still in it's sleeve. Finest album ever 👍
Me 2 Grey and it will always be in my possession. Fly high Christine!!!
Well lucky you!! I have the 8 track but nothing to play it on. Glad I can listen here!
Fleetwood Mac music takes me to a happy place when I was a kid in the 70's. Timeless hits!
Wasn't this an album spawned from the band's hate for each other?
One of the best albums ever made. Every single song is great.
Born in 1991, just finished reading 'making rumours' by ken callait. What a luxury to be able to come listen to this masterpiece of an album. Life is good.
it blew people away when it came out..i was in junior high school..it rocked everyones world
This album, Dark side of the moon (Pink Floyd) and the Harvest (Neil Young) are for me the three milestones of 70's beautiful music.
Este álbum é de 1977, neste mesmo ano teve o Animals do Pink Floyd, duas obras primas daquele ano para não citar aqui outras...A década de 70 foi fantástica para a música!👍🇧🇷
Billy Joel, Carole King, Pink Floyd, Neil Young, James Taylor, vish tem muita música boa dos anos 70
Thriller?
Fine picks. There was no shortage of exceptional albums released during the 70's but two other standouts for me were Teaser and the Firecat (Cat Stevens) and Strung Up (Sweet).
Have a listen 2 and add Rory Gallachers Irish Tour 1974 live,but I agree with your choices. I was fortunate to see Floyd at Knebworth Dark side live. '75 I'm sure .
This is my first time listening to Fleetwood Mac. I was surprised at the number of songs that I recognised, but it was even more surprising how much I enjoyed the entire album
Me too, you are not alone
9 bona fide hits how many albums can say that? A handful maybe. One of the goat albums.
They put out a bunch of albums with different musicians, all of them were great. Blues at first then a transition period then this more popular stuff. All of it is great!
Wow! You are now where I was at Christmas 1977. You have many years of enjoyment ahead. This album is simply superb!
Amo stivie Nicks e Lindsey ,eles tinham uma boa sintonias ,que penas que está sintonia entre eles não existem mas.
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER RECORDED!!!!! HANDS DOWN!!!
whenever i’m stressed or nervous i just listen to this album and it always makes me feel better
One of the best albums, by one of the best bands... ever.
And that got fair commercial success, which isn't always the case....
at 67 yrs old , this album is still in my top five favorite creation,s of all time,,amazing,,
I am 59 and this album brings back all to my teenage years
i just realized I am under my husbands account!
Same age,same opinion
What are the other 4?
same thing at 77, amazing album.
ditto
I was there when it dropped & I am here now. Rumours has always been just as it is - perfect, personal and timeless. If you have this music moving in your soul, you owe a debt of gratitude to this incredible group of artists.
Fuckin' A rite you are!
So am I love this album
Amen
🙏 🎉😊
Such a perfect album. Every song great! And a special nod to Christine's beautiful, soulful Songbird. Farewell angel. I'm 73 but the music from the sixties and seventies keeps me young in my head. Go Your Own Way still a favorite song, the drums, the vocals and Lindsey's guitar...he's such a great talent in every way! Perfection. ❤
Jan 2024 , memories flooding my mind, tears falling listening to this alblum.. so so many memories
The music world has lost a unique talent. R.i.P Christine McVie. You were truly a unique, and one of a kind. You will be missed. Passed away on 11/30/2022
When I was a kid, I thought this was a greatest hits album! It was played front to back by my older sisters and brothers. Still a masterpiece
Didn’t know who didn’t owe a copy in the 70s or the 80s

The music of nowadays is not even worth to mention isnt it.
@@isildurany2888 Yes, agree.
The drummet always keeps the band together in every way. Great album still in 2023.
Mick was a bit of a Ringo...perhaps not the most technically amazing but his parts were sublime ❤
@@DizGuys Like Ringo, he's the trustworthy and steady glue that holds them all in good chemistry. . . .
I bought this album when first released, I still have it , I'm almost 71 hadn't listened to it in years, till today, and my god it still towers over anything you want to put up. Brilliant album by musicians hell bent on killing each other, how does that happen, magic.
I feel your point !!
Yes it's simply Magic ❤
I shall never ever forget, riding along with my friends, this album playing as loud as it could, we all singing along, 1977, I was 25 and boy those were the days my friends! Carefree, working and living for the weekend! This album will forever remind me of those days..and all of whom I was around then..I will never forget y'all..and thanks to music of this incredible album, can be transported if only for a while, to those glorious days! ❤💋🥂🌈❤
So, cool!🙂
Music that evokes memories like this is truly special, a time machine. We can't help but share what it means to us.
Those definitely were the days! I was born in 1976 but my mum loved Fleetwood. But since I grew up in the 80's, those were carefree memorable days of my life. Thanks for sharing your awesome comment! ✨
Born in "52 as well. Loved the Mac from the days of Peter Green until... They evolved, I grew up, and the world definitely changed! Miss those times and old friends who aren't around anymore.
Yepp those were the days !
The greatest album I've ever listened to and I'm 72 now.
Their absolute best album of all time. There isn't a single "bad" song on it. It's perfection.
The year & summer this album came out, friends invited me into their home to listen. We were all kids. It was hot & humid that day, so we closed the curtains, all found a spot either on beds or on the floor, laid on our backs & listened with our eyes closed & drifted off into a musical wonderland. It was simply brilliant. A memory that has stayed with me all these years. Christine Mcvie RIP we love you & are heartbroken at hearing the news of your passing.
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔🎸🎵🎶🕯
Wow, me too. You would have thought that they were as big as the Beatles. I just listened to the whole album again, in about 35 years.
same here
@@ajwasp3642 same ....same!

Sad news today. What an absolutely fabulous group. Great Music! Christine McVie R:I:P you will live forever in the music.
I bought this on a 8 track .This became my boyfriend and i favorite tape.ovèr the past 45 years from cassette, cd,and playlist.Never gets old like our love,and lovè of this group
RIP Christine ❤❤
Thanks for the wonderful memories ❤❤
Christine McVie God Rest your Soul. You Gave us Beautiful,Gorgeous Music!!! For years to come!!!! ❤
When this album was released in the spring of '77 I was in junior high & I thought I was extremely sophisticated because I listened to it. All these years later I still think I'm extremely sophisticated because I still listen to it.
I got it the summer between 8 and 9th grade. played it to death!
Eric Underwood Class of 81 Downey High school CA...
Me too, and all of my friends, and everyone in my school, were clearly sophisticated!
Haha sand age and thinking the same way! Cheers to us!🎉
Undeniably one of the best albums I’ve heard. Born in ‘68. The band was at in their prime and impeccable
Facts
All of them truly found their reason of existence and destiny in this life, and we were all fortunate enough to have shared it with them, the great Fleetwood Mac.....
I am still in California 2024 and still loving Fleetwood Mack ❤❤❤❤Rumors Album
Cant get enough of Christine McVie´s effortless command of her voice
she is so underapprciated IMHO! She always sings about good lovin! And what is better that that? :-)
Oh daddy is her best performance
You know when I was a kid I thought she sounded like a muppet. Her low register just made me cringe. As I've gotten older, I realize now that she's the best singer of the band and one of the best ever. Saw them in 2019 and she was the star of the show for me. I have a major crush on her. Beautiful person with an amazing voice.
I was 11 when this came out and my mom loved Fleetwood Mac. I have so many memories of driving all over Fort Worth, Texas with my mom blaring her 8-track with these awesome songs. Such great times!
😊💞
Definitely! I still have my album! Sometimes we just blast it! The best album ever! 🙌🏻♥️
Some of the most unique voices in all of music history!! Lyndsey and Stevie incredible harmonies
A flawless album in my humble opinion.
The songs still sound relevant after all these years and they are masterfully crafted and 41:15 performed. Rest in peace Christine, your legacy in the music world will be secure for many years to come.
❤
RIP Christie. One of the greatest bands of our time. When the world loses greats we all realise how fragile life is.
Well said
I realized that when my child died in my arms. She must have been one of the "greats". Any life lost clarifies the frailty of life

Lucky very pretty😢😊😅
WOW just, WOW. I was 16 when this came out and it was on full rotation in our house. I haven't listened to the complete album in too long a time. Wonderful scenes and memories I had completely forgotten, came flooding back, hitting me deep in the feels. Perfection.
Yep, some great albums in the 70's. To think this and Eagles Hotel California came out the same year. I am the same age as you and to think of all the classic albums that came out that decade. Cheers!
@@dred1606 What a great time to be young, it really was. Wasn't it? Cheers to you.
My biggest memory of this album was when I was about 8 visiting a friend's place and their parents had this album playing everytime I visited. I was too you to know who it was and what they were singing about but new the sound was ahead of its time. In fact later when I was old enough I was surprised it was recorded when it was. Brilliant
Just joined the British army when this came out it felt great back there just as it does nowdays now I'm 60 music brings me so many happy memories ain't that a wonderful gift these artists have
I was 14 mibi 15 when I first heard this and discovered I loved this band since whenever I was in ma sisters I'd beg her to play it for me. She's with the angels now. So this is for u hen
Like so many others, I was in high school when this album came out. It quickly reached number on the charts and stayed there all spring, all summer (as we drove around), and into the fall...magical time indeed.
Now, all these years and miles later, I think beyond the great music, these songs show the pain that these five people were going through and also, let us know that we have never been alone as we grew up and experienced similar pain.
Magical music, magical band, magical people. Thank you Fleetwood Mac.
Living life with strife and turmoil produces great music. Genius 😢
there defo magic enclosed in this album i knew that when i was 8 and first heard it (born 71) blew my mind then and now.
I was sixteen when this album came out. At seventeen I saw them 14 rows back on the floor. Indescribable! My fave band of all time and I love alot of music❤️
Someone commented Lindsey was a prima Donna. If you watch the documentaries they all say it was Stevie that was. Just saying.
Magically said😊
Went through 2 vinyl's, and 3 8-tracks of this masterpiece. True story-Drove my car off a pier in Norfolk while "Go your own way" blared out the speakers. Damn, the 70's were crazy. Best years of my life.
Norfolk? Honestly I would have expected this to be a London thing.
intentionally ? .
We had a good friend who absolutely loved this album. He lived next door to my husband and me, and every day when he came home from work, he would be blasting this song on his 8-track in his big silver van. You could hear him all the way down the street! He passed away a couple of years ago, but I'll think of our dear friend Carl forevermore whenever I hear these songs.
Excellent! Thank you for sharing 😊😊😊
8 Track?? thats old fashioned for those times!! we listened to it over and over again on LP's in junior high school!!
One of the most perfect albums of all time. Hit after hit after hit
No argument here.
This just doesn't get old....ever! The voices, songs, lyrics, music, technical skills...they all blend together beautifully. They are so unique!
Heard this the day it came out. I'm 64 today. One of my favorites. This was one of very few Quad(8 track) speaker albums recorded back then
RIP lovely Christine. I just saw you in concert three years ago right before the pandemic. I see I'm not the only one curling up with Rumours in the wake of her sudden passing.
RIP Christine McVie Your legacy will never die.
Musicians today dream of making this kind of music. I dare say that very few will ever achieve this level of musical excellence and mastery. Their combined efforts were off the charts then and now.
Yes indeed. But is cocaine abuse the reason of such a musical brilliance? I hope not...
@@kenfrieder3669 Wsadź swoje uwagi w we własny odbyt :)
When I was a teenager there was a girl who I was madly in love with. We never made anything of it. She showed me this album in its entirety.
Gives me shivers just thinking of it. I miss her a lot, we havent spoken in years, I have moved far away from home and never found anyone like her. Shes getting married and Im alone... guess thats how it works out for some.
Brilliant album. Never let the one get away.
When I was a teenager there was a girl who I was madly in love with. We never made anything of it. She showed me this album in its entirety. She went off with a much more mature guy. I was distraught. I left home and started travelling, the World. I thought my life was finished before it had started. Hahahaha Now 40 years later I came back to the same area again, with my teenage daughter. This was after having, much to my surprise, met more than one girl/woman over the years.
The teenage love walked by me in the street when I was in a pavement cafe. She recognised me hit me on my shoulder and asked how I was. Whilst no longer the svelte young thing of my memory a bit grey and still with the other guy(happily), it was as if the years fell away. One never knows how it will all turn out, funny. I still listen to this of course and it is still just as good as it was then. Nostalgia is a great thing, sometimes.
As an old timer my advice to you is to watch Married with Children...... That'll cure your love ills.....
Hey J keep looking the girl for you is waiting to meet you.
That is very deep. It resounds with me very much so because I have a very early and similar memory from the rumors album that that haunts me of a love not accepted my case we remain great friends and I wasn't aware that she had died at age 55 just 3 years ago until I dug deeper to find out why she wasn't responding to my Facebook post and messages. Imagine my shock to find out she had passed and I had no idea and to this day don't know what she died of! Perhaps you should write some music yourself you seem to have the knack for poetic, heartfelt wording.
❤
One of the moments in time when magic happens, once you make an album like this it's both a blessing and a curse. Great songwriting, music, and vocals. Absolutely the peak of Fleetwood Mac..
"Tango in the Night"
This album is the heart and soul of the 70s

This is as timeless as it gets. Mellows your soul.
The first album ever purchased with my own money at 10 years old. I was so excited. Been listening ever since and I'm now 56.
Bought the album after seeing an advertisement on SNL back in 77. Such classic tracks. Perfection and not one bad track. Finally got to see them live in 1980, thankfully.
Convinced that this is the best album of all time. It's like a Greatest Hits collection. A group of talented musicians that took ugly personal tragedies and created a masterpiece.
you would have loved it live Western spring, Auck NZ one summery Sunday afternoon back in 76.
Dreamy day.
I used to listen to this as my first CD in the eigthies, when I was a teenager :) Today I listened to it for the first time in years, thanks to that video, and it brings many memories :) Anyway, this is indeed a masterpiece, and I have to say (would you believe it ???) I had forgotten the insane emotional power (so moving !) of the sublime "Songbird" !! :)
The best songs are written with strong emotions
@@MrMigido New Zealand??
They were good but not as awesome as Cheap Trick at Budakon or Frampton Comes Alive or Boston
I've Lindsey Buckingham live twice. He both times he ended with Go Your Own Way. Everyone was was on their feet, hands in the air, singing every word with many people, including myself, crying. This album means so much to so many.
One of the greatest Albums ever written
In my opinion, Rumors is one of THE BEST ALBUMS EVER!!! 40+ years after these songs were written and recorded, they are STILL Incredible and relevent!
I don't even listen to rock anymore, haven't in many years, but I will NEVER change the station if I hear a Fleetwood Mac song!!
Christine was a friggin LEGEND!! I Pray she rests peacefully, and KNEW just how many lives she touched! And continues to touch!!
I am blessed to have grown up when artists were TRULY artists! They sounded incredible live, and didn't even need all that studio equiptment to sound great!
Watch Christine sing SONGBIRD...LIVE! Just her and a piano!
I remember this album opened up and it came with a picture of the group. My God Stevie Nicks was a Goddess with that Farrah Fawcett hairdo. Every young man was mesmerized by her Beauty. But the Music from 3 different lead vocals was enthralling. 4 top ten hits from this album. I was young and this album gave me hope and a spirit from that era that helped me through all my life. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. Bless the band and their families
And me Luis, she was stunning
I was 27 & a new widow with a 3yo and 5yo when I bought this. The "Landside" hit me in my heart. My bff had a huge poster of them, yep Stevie is a goddess, she is Rhiannon ❤🥲🕊and I can listen to the Chain forever & a day🌞
What a wonderful, heartwarming tribute - I wonder if bands know what influence they have on peoples' lives?
Love that you love them. Hippie generation ✌️💖
All an illusion
RIP Christine. I hadn’t listened to this album since I was very young and I still remember all the words to all the wonderful songs. What an album! Not one bad song on it.
i had no idea what an amazing album this was until recently. i didnt even know some of these were FM! My folks had this album and more, and i remember birthdays in SOCal growing up. After ppl went home, my family drank and danced into the night. I was born in 77 and am so grateful for FM. This album is perfect and such a nostalgic blast. i was door dashing last year and listened to Gold Dust Woman the bio while driving and heard all these back stories to the songs and themselves and fell in LOVE with all of them, even Lindsay. lol They somehow got up there thousands of times and its just staggering, the music. It WAS and IS real music. instruments and lyrics detailing the stories on a record, literally recording their lives. And giving us the gift and sharing those pieces with us out here who will never understand what its like on their side, but we see pieces in books and records. Thank god for youtube and folks back then carrying clunky ass video cameras hahaha RIP Christine McVie! You are so appreciated.
this is easily one of the best albums ever and they can play all this live perfectly.
The story behind this album is mind blowing.
They sound dreadful live now... apart from Mick and John...
My ignorance of youth growing up in the 80's...... It took a lot of life to learn to appreciate a masterpiece.
Totally agree with you.... I met them when I was a child.... And at my 60 years old.... still listen Fleetwood Mac..... every single day.... Regards 😊
The most innovative group of musicians and songsters in all of rock/pop music. Rest well, Christine !!!
Christine McVie. Missing her sooo bad! I think the song Hypnotized
was written specifically for her smoking eyes!
I concur.
Songsters. I need to utilise that word.
Have a great weekend.
Been listening to it since the 70s. Listening to it today as I hit that 55 in life. ❤ One of the best albums ever made.
Fock’n Aye!! ♥️
Exactly, 54 here. Feel the same way. Like it even more today than ever. Listening to it right now. It's my feel good therepy...
Same! 56 here.
Ha, 61 here and still rocking out man.
Christine had such a distintive and wonderfuL voice .She has only gone ahead of us. The music plays on.
Bought the cassette in high school in 1977 - I think I wore it out. Arguable the finest popular music collection ever recorded. Timeless.
Peace Christine Mc Vie . You have my deepest condolencees for your loss.💔💔
I agree with you her voice and song writing was wonderful.
This album along with Carole King's tapestry.. Joni Mitchell's Blue album.. and Supertramp breakfast in America the best albums in my lifetime born in 64
Me 61.
You forgot Boston Boston
Awesomeness!!! Fleetwood mac Rumors !!! Blessings Ya ll
when you buy a album like this that you cant stop playing and enjoi it every time you play it i think that tells you what a master class album this is this album never ages...thank you fleetwood mac

That describes the group. Peter Green was a great blues writer but they needed him to drop out to find this fantastic chemistry. They are all sensational!!
Dear beautiful souls,
All my familyl live on Maui, Hawaii, Lahaina and all their homes burnt down in the fires. Please send prayers and positive energy so my family and all the people and all the animals and the beautiful land. Love your soul, sister Bonnie 💖🙏😻🐾🪽🌈🌺
I remember sitting in my room on the floor in front of the record player and enjoying this album!! Singing my little heart out. :)
Lisa please sing your heart out it's positive emotion and we all need ♥️ in our life
Sad to hear of Christine McVue’s death just now. RIP x
I listened to this as a kid on headphones. Iiked music like this as my parents played this and other music alot. My dad died 22 years ago my mum is still alive and getting dementia. They were not perfect but I miss them and will go to look after my mum in awhile when her current partner gets surgery and will be their for both of them as I was lucky and got a great step dad. I'm slowly building my mums vast music collection. She has inspired me .
Play this album for her and see how she reacts. Wonder if she will recognise it?
One of the best ever all time albums I am in 2024 now, and was blessed to see them before covid and got real setlist they played that night! ❤
