Back Cover Text »

Nothing ordinary ever happened to Fleetwood Mac. Since its English debut in 1967 as "Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac featuring Jeremy Spencer," this epochal band has been through the ultimate rock whirlwind. Musicians were lost to acid, to religious cults, and to madness. Yet through it all, by the end of the Sixties Fleetwood Mac was outselling the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. By 1975 Fleetwood Mac - Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, and Christine McVie - was almost broke in Los Angeles when it hired a pair of starving musicians named Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. This was the band that produced the landmark album Rumours, one of the best-selling recordings in history - while notoriously breaking up. Fleetwood: My Life and Adventures in Fleetwood Mac is the first inside account of life in one of the most popular rock bands in history. For the first time, Mick Fleetwood, a master musician of the 1960s, describes how he nurtured a band that dominated the 1970s, came back in the 1980s, and survives into the 1990s - its fourth decade - as one of the most loved and powerful acts in the world. Mick Fleetwood's shocking, often harrowing story of genius and love, failure, success, and artistic survival lifts the veil of secrecy that has long hidden Fleetwood Mac from its millions of fans. From the early days in South London blues clubs to today's world tour, this is Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks - and others - as their fans have never seen them. Mick Fleetwood was born in Cornwall, England. For twenty-five years, he has been recognized as one of the great rock drummers of his generation. Currently touring with his band, he lives in Southern California. Stephen Davis is the author of Bob Marley, Say Kids! What Time Is It?, the best-selling Hammer of the Gods, and other books. He lives in New England. William Morrow & Company, Inc. 105 Madison Avenue New York, N.Y. 10016 Printed in U.S.A. $17.95 9 78 5 51795
