Review written by Anonymous, December 9th, 2007 I'm a college student that has an unconventional love for Fleetwood Mac. I was rummaging through a record store dollar albums and found this in VG++ condition. I never heard any of the songs before and I figured it was from the era between Peter Green and Nicks/Buckingham. I wasn't expecting much, but after playing through just once. Mind is blown. Fleetwood Mac... when I thought I heard all you had to offer this just proves me wrong. Great '70s Music Review written by Larry Burks, June 8th, 2007 When I heard this album I was blown away by the music and the lyrics. The impact it has made on me remains today. I was just thumbing thru my collection and ran across it again; and I'm stuck here and I don't want to move. The music just takes me back (graduated from high school in 1972); that was a great year and it was a great time for Fleetwood Mac. A Fleetwood Mac classic Review written by Charles R., June 1st, 2007 Bought my first copies in 1973 the year I graduated from High school. Got the album,and the 8 track, have the cd today.This the best album of the Bob Welch era,I think the best Fleetwood Mac album ever.Mick Fleetwoods unselfish crisp drumming matched with John McVies pounding bass runs(Miles away, For your love, Hypnotized),are as tight as a watch, listening to these two on this album will blow you away.John McVie has never cut loose like this since.Match all this with Bob Welch's underrated guitar work this album goes from straight forward rock,to some good funky type stuff,to some Christine McVie songs, all good(especially Why).You have to listen to this more than a few times to hear all the little things going on as they jam.Bob Welch's throws the spaciest licks through there, he gets such great tone.Anyway Fleetwood Mac went commercial after 1976, which was good for them, but when Bob Welch left it wasn,t good for many.This early 70's version was very unique and I still miss it.I have never played this album for any new(Buckingham,Nicks)Fleetwood Mac fan,who wasn,t surprised on how good Fleetwood Mac was, since most never heard anything they knew was Fleetwood Mac,pre 1976.The only thing I don't have are any live recordings of these songs.I don't think they exist.I did have experience of seeing some of them performed live in S.F.,Winterland, and Sac., Memorial auditorium in 1974,or 75. Can,t remember the exact year but I definately will never forget the show.
