I’m a guitar player and yes, Lyndsey Buckingham is criminally underrated. He is awesome. His fingerpicking style is second to none.
Totally agree! Guitar player, song writer, singer, producer!!
Those who have tried to pick 'Never Going Back Again' will agree.
He is second to John Stewart who taught him.
Gotta check "big love" live to really see his talent
Mick Fleetwood chose him b/c of his playing with only his fingers/no pick like old blues players.
Mick Fleetwood’s drumming in this song is criminally underrated!
Yeah, I agree!
He was definitely way ahead of his time
In an NPR special on the production of this album, Fleetwood explained how he hit the accents on 2 and 4 on the early takes, which is standard for rock. The song wasn't going anywhere, so he tried it on 1 and 3, on the front of the beat. That raised the energy and sense of urgency, and set the palette for the rest of the song.
Yes! And he kills it on this song!
The rhythm section drives the whole song
During the most famous part of Fleetwood Mac's history, they had three lead singers. Stevie Nicks, the guitarist Lindsay Buckingham & the keyboardist Christine McVie. All three of them had big hits. To hear more from Lindsay I suggest Don't Stop. Christine had You Make Lovin Fun, and Songbird among others. She has a beautiful voice and you should check her songs out with Fleetwood Mac too.
Don't Stop is Christine's.
Yes yes Songbird. I love Eva Cassidy's version too. Incredible song.
Christine McVee has a totally different type of voice it’s absolutely beautiful.
I saw an interview with Mick Fleetwood and he said Songbird would bring them to tears when Christine sung it in tour.
I believe You Make Lovin Fun was written by Christine when she was stepping out on John, her husband. Can't remember who it was about, but I love to hear her sing!
Lindsay and Stevie wrote songs about each other and their relationship, sang them themselves while the other performed along side. The bands tumultuous relationship really turned out some of the greatest music ever
Lindsey Buckingham is a top tier fingerstyle guitar player. He's also singing this song. Uber talented musician.
Lindsey Buckingham is one of the most underrated guitarists. He may play for fleetwood mac but make no mistake he's one of the greats. You should watch "I'm so afraid" live 97' the dance tour. Puts on a show with the guitar.
An absolute beast. And on this song as well.
Hardly one of the guitar greats and a bit of a 'thrash merchant.' Strangely enough though you were correct to say that Fleetwood Mac had one of the greatest guitarists of all time, but it wasn't Lindsay Buckingham. Peter Green (RIP), their original guitarist is consistently voted into the higher reaches of 'best guitarist' polls when these polls crop up. Peter was the founder of the band and the writer of all their early hits, including "Black Magic Woman," which was later covered by Carlos Santana (the original version by Fleetwood Mac is much better).
@@andyallan2909 Yes of course Peter Green was an all-time amazing player but that doesn't take anything away from the greatness of Lindsay Buckingham. Different types of players.
His version of Big Love from their concert video The Dance shows you what a classically trained teenaged guitarist who was into the Beach Boys can grow up & do.
No he isn't
Absolute classic. Rumours is one of the greatest albums ever. Should check out Fleetwood Mac's original music as well, extremely different style and lineup
Rumors should be in every music lovers collection.
yes, fleetwood mac was so different when Peter Green was still around. I personally love their Black Magic Woman vinyl.
Isn't "Rumours" still on the BillBoard Album Chart?
Rumours is such a classic and then you add the back story of affairs and sleeping around and it just gets better
Yes I listen to Rumors daily
So glad that I was alive and young during this period of the greatest music ever.This era will NEVER be equaled.
What makes it great? That it's real emotion from a couple and band members who lived it, and the feelings after breakup. Just an amazing band and song. Lindsey Buckingham is one underrated vocalist and guitar player. Lyricist extraordinaire. Give Silver Springs a listen for Stevies reply.
It's amazing how they could put all that stuff out with all the emotions and drama behind the scenes. Seems like many of the most amazing performers have all kinds of drama going on...
Fleetwood Mac did not under-rate him... He replaced the likes of some really good guitarist. They wanted him so much so they took Stevie Nicks into the band with him without any audition.
Fleetwood Mac were a hit machine, incredibly talented group.
The 80s were OK But the 70s KICKED AAASSSS LOL Heres proof
Fleetwood Mac had three lead singer/song writers: Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie, and Lindsey Buckingham. McVie probably wrote and sand lead on as many hits as Stevie Nicks. Lindsey Buckingham sang lead on fewer hits but became the band’s primary producer.
THIS era of Fleetwood Mac did yes. Prior to Mick Fleetwood being the luckiest guy on earth to stumble upon Nicks & Buckingham together while looking for a replacement for Peter Green who established Fleetwood Mac & then lost his way in the world.
For original Fleetwood Mac check out "man of the world" "Albatross" "the green manalishi" "need your love so bad" the latter song almost causing a fist fight between my dad & his best friend over what one particular line said. And they were both wrong. Lmao. "And I'm at an end" was the line.
Christine McVie and Lindsey Buckingham, each, actually had more hits singles with Fleetwood Mac than Stevie Nicks did.
What about Peter Green, the founder of the band and the one of the all time great blues guitarists, the original Mac was infinitely better than the Nics/Buckingham era
@@MrThebigredone it all depends on taste and perspective. I am totally unfamiliar with the pre Buckingham- Nicks era although I know it existed. Also, wasn’t Bob Welch after Peter Green and before Lindsey Buckingham?
@@SEIFER69 Mick Fleetwood was looking for a replacement for Bob Welch, not Peter Green, when he met Lindsey Buckingham. Green had already been gone a few years before Buckingham and Nicks joined the band.
Buckingham is a very underrated guitarist, partly because he’s essentially a song-driven guitarist in the vein of a Robbie Robertson, where it’s less about showing his chops and more about shaping the song as a whole. Ironically it seems to me that his more contemporary performances emphasize his skills more overtly, so I wonder if he’s been feeling under appreciated. Anyways, yes his style is unusual and he is able to achieve things that required two guitarists to replace when they fired him.
Dead right, LB is very underrated, some of his solo work is sublime!
true that....still I'm proud that one of the guitarists that did replace him was the great Kiwi singer/songwriter & hit machine in his own right,Neil Finn.....🇳🇿 go Kiwi!!
This song is written and sung by Lindsey Buckingham, the lead guitarist. It is directed towards Stevie who was his girlfriend. He was really angry... she wrote a song reply in "Landslide". Its amazing to watch the group perform these songs - especially because you know the story and you can see each of them both getting really emotional.
Landslide was released on the previous album.
Totally correct and cheers from having me to type that all out 😉👍
It was Dreams that was the reply. "Now here you go again, you say you want your freedom
Well, who am I to keep you down?"
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee sorry, you're right of course, I guess I meant "reply" as in it's her reply to the breakup rather than to his song.
@@cypherspaceagain I thought Silver Springs was a reply to this?
I absolutely love how active John McVie is on bass. His bass lines are incredible
To see Lindsey playing live, you really are blown away by his skill. It’s amazing.
That last solo proceeding to the fade out is absolute legend. Lindsey Buckingham is a beast of a guitarist. One of the goats.
It's been used for an Xfinity ad for their mobile app and also for an Izuzu ad. Fleetwood Mac's singers were Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham (guitarist/singing lead), Christine McVie (keyboardist). This song is about the personal strain of the band members at the time. Lindsey wrote this because he and Stevie had broken up and he needed to come to terms with that and a lot of pent up anger for her that had been going for years. Stevie was mad about the "the packing up/shacking up" line because that's not what was happening but Lindsey wouldn't change it. The entire album, Rumours, is the result of everybody breaking up. Mick Fleetwood's wife had been having an affair and they broke up. Christine and John McVie broke up after 8 years of marriage as well. They only talked about music and the band and through all the turmoil they made one of the best selling albums to date. They may not have been able to stand each other in various ways but they knew how to channel that into something amazing.
Some of Mick Fleetwood’s best drumming.
NOTHING is better than the live version of this song instead of the studio song.
This album is absolutely a classic.
Yes sir belongs in everyone's collection
This song is off the legendary 'Rumours' album of 1977, one of the greatest rock albums ever made and if it was released again today, it would reach the very heights once again. All the musicians in the band were right at the very top of their games as this iconic track proves. Great music is timeless.
Fun reaction. It was used in Forrest Gump, but also in an Xfinity ad and a car ad (Toyota?). That was Lindsey Buckingham singer/songwriter/lead guitarist. He & Stevie were a couple on/off.
I was trying to remember if it was in Forrest Gump but you've helped me out with that!
It was in Forrest Gump and Casino. And yeah, Lyndsey is pretty amazing as a guitarist. The thing that makes his playing hard for a novice player is his ability to maintain a couple of different rhythms simultaneously. Sometimes so much so it sounds like two guitars at once.
Will always be linked with Forrest Gump for me, the part of the movie where Forrest is running across the USA.
Stevie Nicks is singing background vocals on this along with Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie, (they are known for their layered background vocal harmonies) Lindsey is singing lead vocals....the wonders of having a gazillion dollars to spend in the studio. Each of the singers in fleetwood mac do double duty....lead on the songs they wrote and background vocals on the songs the others wrote. Many times they are even heard singing background vocals on their own songs....multi-track recording and over-dubing made all that possible. Live versions of Fleetwood mac are typically a little thin when it comes to the background vocals because it's usually just two singing them.
Aw yes yes yes
Lex? Did you see "Casino"?
In one scene, when Ace (De Niro) is talking to Nicky (Joe Pesci) about trying to win back Ginger (Stone), Fleetwood Mac’s “Go Your Own Way” plays on the car radio.
It was also in "Clerks" and "Forrest Gump"
"Rumours" is one of best selling albums of all time.
Every song is amazing. Great reaction.
As everyone always mentions, Fleetwood Mac had 3 singers capable of leads: Lindsey (male), Christine, and Stevie (female). Lots of Fleetwood Mac's hits were sung by Christine with Stevie and Lindsey doing backup vocals. This one was Lindsey singing lead, as he did occasionally, with Christine and Stevie doing backgrounds.
Previous to Stevie and Lindsey joining I think Bob Welch was part of Fleetwood Mac. I think ... I might be thinking of someone else.
@@dennytaylor1005 For sure, but few people talk about early Fleetwood Mac. It's the band AFTER Stevie and Lindsey joined that became white hot ... and only for a short while before they burned out.
@@dennytaylor1005 yeah and before Bob Welch was Peter Green another great guitarist.
@@dennytaylor1005 I am Bob Welsh as big song called magnet and steel
Prior to joining Fleetwood Mac, Lindsay and Stevie did their own songs and had an album called, "Buckingham Nicks" in 1973 which was released on Polydor Records. She was 19 and he was 18. The cover shot is both of them topless which she didn't want to do.
Mick Fleetwood, while evaluating recording studios, heard "Frozen Love" played back through studio monitors at Sound City by Keith Olsen. Fleetwood would go on to invite the duo to join his band, Fleetwood Mac, on New Year's Eve 1974. That's how good that album was. I have a copy from back then. It's interesting how much it's worth these days.
Fleetwood Mac had 3 singers... Lindsey Buckingham (guitar) sang lead... Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie (keyboards) sang the chorus. It was tough cos it was a breakup song directed at Stevie, and she was furious when Lindsey wrote the line that "shacking up is all you want to do"...
Lindsey Buckingham is one of the most accomplished guitarists & producers of his era... he plays guitar w/ his fingers, doesn't use a pick... and he plays very intricate and delicate parts in Fleetwood Mac songs - 'Everywhere' is a perfect example... another would be 'Second hand news'
An extraordinary band, with a fascinating history. A band that went through several transformations, and has a musical range wider than most. So many great musicians throughout the hole life or the band. Before Nicks and Buckingham became members they had an incredible talent called Peter Green in the band. Listen to a track called ‘Albatross’. It’s an instrumental, but you wont be bored for second without any lyrics to scrutinise, because it’s a force of nature to listen to.
Albatross is a masterpiece. Wigwam by Bob Dylan, as well
Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks were a duo prior to joining Fleetwood Mac in 1974. The band had gone through a few different singers/guitar players during the seven years before they joined the band, including Peter Green and Bob Welch. Buckingham and Nicks, along with Keyboardist Christine McVie all shared lead vocal duties, ✌️
The dude your referring too is Lindsay Buckingham. He wrote this song in reply to Dreams that was written by Stevie Nicks. They were breaking up at that time and not on speaking terms, so they wrote songs to express their point of view. It was a very tough time in the bands history with Bassist John and Keyboard/Vocalist Christine were divorcing, Drummer Mick Fleetwood was also going through a divorce. The title of the album was Rumors and sold millions of copies as a result of putting their emotions to music. What makes Buckingham so unique is his pick less finger style known as a Travis Pick more commonly used in bluegrass on a banjo and allows him to play multiple parts at the same time and sounds like 2 guitars instead of one. When he left the band they needed 2 guitarist to replace him to get the same sound. He also produced their most success albums and the group struggled to hit the charts when he wasn't in the band. He is definitely the driving force behind their success, a fact that Nicks deeply resents him for. The current line up has guitarist/vocalist Neil Finn of Crowded House and guitarist Mike Campbell from Tom Petty and Heartbreakers replacing Buckingham.
How brilliant is this song .. Lindsey's rocking backbeat and Stevie's vocals .. just perfect!
This song is everywhere. Very famous song, commercials, movies, etc. It is iconic in the culture
This song was in Forrest Gump.
Lindsey Buckingham is a masterful guitarist and when he lead sings on a Fleetwood Mac song, it's always magical. I love Stevie Nicks too, but I feel like Lindsey Buckingham is underappriciated for what he does in the band because everyone pays attention to Stevie.
Both him and Christine have a much better voice than Stevie!
@@angelajakem366 Back in the day when she had a cocaine problem, she was bath-averse. Her nickname was Stinkie Nicks.
Three members of the band (from the line up that included Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie, Stevie Nicks, and Lindsey Buckingham)sang lead vocal on occasion, Stevie Nicks of course, but guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, and keyboardist Christine McVie also sang quite a few songs
Lex, if you really want to see Lindsey's guitar skills, check out the live version of Big Love from The Dance. It's just him singing and playing while the rest of the band takes a break. It will blow you away! Saw him do it at a solo show a few years back and was amazed.
I just watched that, it's insane! He's one of those weirdos that can play rhythm and lead at the same time.
He may be well-loved for the songs he made with Fleetwood Mac, but I don't think I've appreciated him enough as an instrumentalist.
The crazy thing about how he plays that song live is that it's even more difficult to play than it looks. It's like his thumb and his fingers are operating completely independently from each other, playing two totally disconnected parts. Neither part is very complex by itself, but getting both going at the same time is more than we mere mortals can achieve.
The song Go Your Own Way was used in Xfinity Mobile, Anoro (COPD medicine), National Car Rental and Dodge Ram Trucks commercials. There was even a commercial in Australia for Isuzu called, The Isuzu Story which featured the song. Brad, you were hearing Stevie Nicks, but as a background vocalist, along with Christine McVie. The singer here was Stevie's boyfriend and lead guitarist, Lindsey Buckingham. This album was made when the entire band was falling apart. Stevie wrote the song Dreams about Lindsey and Lindsey wrote this song about her. So, basically, this album was them fighting and airing their dirty laundry in public, and the world loved it.
Fleetwood Mac have had more than one different configuration of members, but the most successful was when there were 5 members: Mick Fleetwood (Drums), John McVie (Bass guitar) were two of the founder members and from where the group got their name. Then there was John's wife Christine McVie (keyboard/vocals) (no longer his wife, they split but both stayed in the group). All of these are British. They then invited Americans Lindsey Buckingham (guitar/vocals) and Stevie Nicks (Vocals) (also partners at the time but not for long!!!) to join the group. It's Buckingham who sings on this, and who wrote it I believe. The vocals are shared among the 3 vocalists, depending on the song. A lot of their best songs are borne out of and about the romantic/emotional issues going on between the members, especially Buckingham/Nicks, whilst still somehow all remaining in the group.
The classic lineup of Fleetwood Mac had 3 singer/songwriters: Stevie Nicks, of course; Christine McVie, the keyboardist; and guitarist Lindsay Buckingham. That's the guitarist & lead singer for GO YOUR OWN WAY.
Buckingham was also the producer in the studio.
All 3 sang lead on different Fleetwood Mac tunes, and backed up the other two's compositions with harmonies.
For more Lindsay on lead vocals -
Do DON'T STOP!
Do SECOND HAND NEWS!
Do BIG LOVE!
Do NEVER GOING BACK AGAIN!
Do MONDAY MORNING!
Do TUSK!
I’m so glad I saw Fleetwood Mac while Lindsey was still with the band. He is amazing live…he rocked the stage❤️❤️❤️
What a lead guitar break too!!
I honestly think some of the greatest music of all time was made between the years 1970-1990. SO much iconic music in that 20 year period from so many bands.
Brad & Lex, I'd recommend "Silver Spring" from the 1997 concert 'The Dance' and "You Make Loving Fun".!!!
Agree with Silver Springs ' Stevies reply.
Great song though as musical structure and complexity goes the highlight of that was likely Big Love.
The studio album's version pales in comparison to the arrangement he did for playing solo. If you play finger-style guitar it's not just a complete work-out harmonically and melodically at the same time, Buckingham does it while singing on top of it all.
Has to be that live version from The Dance. It's just insane watching Stevie sing with such intensity at Lindsey...the original just doesn't match up.
@@paulgetman9087 Totally agree!
Another vote for Silver Springs. It's a gut punch. Gotta be the live video from 1997. It's priceless.
Fleetwood Mac’s guitarist Lindsey Buckingham also sang lead vocal on this track
This was Lindsay Buckingham singing, he is Stevie's ex this was directed at her, she was very angry over the line " Shacking up is all you want to do" and wanted it changed but Lindsay and the band refused.
Lex. I think the song you were watching a guitar lesson on was "Never Going Back Again." I suggest reviewing that one. It's really good. Also, if you really want to see how amazing Lindsay Buckingham is, look at a live version of "Big Love." It's out of this world.
Fantastic!
My favorite !! So underrated; but for those of us that KNOW.
They should also do Tusk if they want to hear his voice go as nuts as his musicality.
@@Leah-xu2fd only if it's the version from The Dance.
Wildly popular when released; they became a favored couples band, everyone realizing the members had all sorts of intimacy issues going on.
One of the great things about Fleetwood Mac is they have three premier song writers in Stevie, Lindsey and Christie, but so often the drums and bass are front and center setting the theme. They all seem comfortable letting someone else shine.
Lyndsey Buckingham is a superb guitar player. He plays a lot of Travis style picking (very difficult to do well), and then uses his fingers like guitar picks for his heavy leads. He's probably not the best place to start on guitar.
For the record, Robert Johnson just gave advice on playing guitar. 💢
The singers were Stevie Nick's Lyndsey Buckingham, and Christine McVie. Lyndsey also is the guitarist. Christine is on keyboards. Mick Fleetwood played drums and John McVie bass. Christine and John are divorced. Stevie and Lyndsey joined the band as a couple and then broke up. This song was written by Lyndsey. Stevie had to sing backing vocals while Lyndsey sang main vocals.
This song has been in a lot of things. Commercials, stores, movies, etc.
I remember at the end of the 70’s/early 80’s Fleetwood Mac was omnipresent. I was like 13 at the time and they were constantly on the radio. Extremely talented group of performers.
The singer is guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, who wrote the song. Stevie and Christine are on backing vocals. This song is directed straight at Stevie Nicks, whom Lindsey messily broke up with during the recording of "Rumours". Stevie also wrote a song about the breakup, "Silver Springs", but that song was dropped from the album. So then they go out on tour to support the album, and Stevie has to sing back up every night on a song that calls her out. Talk about professionalism. And the drugs probably helped. So, maybe have a listen to "Silver Springs".
Several people sing in the band including Christine McVie.
This is one of the most played songs of all time. It was a big hit and played for decades and is still getting air time around the country.
The reason Nicks isn't as noticeable is because the song is written ABOUT her lol
Brad & Lex, always remember when you guys listen to any song from their Rumors album, it's directed at someone in the band. Nearly every song was about lovers fighting their battles with song lyrics! It's the 8th best-selling album of all time! It was so volatile that the only way they could speak to each other without getting into a screaming match was through song lyrics! By doing it that way, it let the other person know what the other wanted them to know without being interrupted or cut off. Brad, that dude you heard was the guitarist who also was her boyfriend at the time. There are three singers within this group. So, Brad and Lex sit back get some popcorn and listen to the whole album and try to see which song was written to who from who!
Stevie was always pissed at the shacking up lyric.
I think Fleetwood Mac had duel singers (female and male). They were a great band during the late '60s, '70s and '80s. Tons of good songs and videos. Different styles. Rock, folk/hippie rock, pop rock, artsy rock, dabbed in a little disco for a bit, etc.. Yall probably heard this song on commercials, movies like Casino and Forest Gump. radio, grocery stores, etc. Very popular group, yes Nicks has a great voice. Talented musicians on that group. They had some good solo albums, too during the '80s/'90s after their breakup.
This version of FM had three lead singers.
Fleetwood Mac has 3 lead singers…Stevie sings lead on most of the songs and back up vocals on the rest…Christine McVie sings lead a good majority of the other songs (songs like Everywhere and You Make Loving Fun), plays the keyboard, and does backing vocals…Lyndsey Buckingham who sung lead on this song (and other songs like The Chain and Big Love) he plays the guitar really well, and does backing vocals…Stevie and Lyndsey used to go out so a lot of their songs are about their relationship…This song was Lyndsey’s response to Stevie Nicks’ song Dreams (both songs are their breakup songs with each other)…On a Fleetwood Mac song even if they’re not singing the lead, you’re pretty much always hearing Stevie’s, Christine’s, or Lyndsey’s voices…Lyndsey was also in the We Are the World music video…
R.I.P., Christine McVie. Your contributions to FM were major and you will be missed. Thnx for decades of FM music to grow up with.
It’s funny how that when Lex has a certain look and that smile at the beginning of a song you know what’s coming…”Okay, what was this song in? A movie? Commercial?” Every time. So cute.
Back in 1973 they did a album called Buckingham and Nick‘s made a small amount of copies before they join Fleetwood Mac. My dad bought me that album and I still have it listen to a song called “crying in the night“ that whole album is fantastic.
I love all the incarnations of Fleetwood Mac, from the Peter Green era and on. They've always had a superb and unique kickass guitarist in the band. Even Bob Welch was cool.
Just listened to your reaction, some quick infos for you concerning the different singers.
Fleetwood Mac started in the late 1960s ... and they are still there!
From the mid 1970s to the 1990s, they had mainly three lead singers: Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie and (you heard him here) Lindsey Buckinham. They also wrote mostly texts and lyrics each for their on songs. There are some rare duets.
I recently saw a guitar learning video for the Fleetwood Mac song "Looking out for love". Is that the guitar video Lex was talking about here?
It is also by Lindsey Buckinham, and there i s a good live version here on youtube of that song, him singing and playing the guitar.
And then there is the legendary live version of "Landslide", Stevie Nicks singing.
I had known the band since the 1980s, but I really only started to enjoy their music some years ago, and again during Covid. So much beautifully arranged music to lighten up my days.
I really do enjoy both your views and opinions here, thank you so much for doing them.
Love, Love this song. Probably my fav from Fleetwood Mac. Yes Lex, this is a very popular song, probably in multiple movies.
Van Halen and Metallica will likely remain at the top of my list for favorite bands (studio and live show). I always dismissed Fleetwood Mac as a pretty good 80s pop band until they became my wife's favorite band... And thankful for being able to see them live three times, once with the full line up. Amazing band!
You guys really need to hear their song “Tusk.” Original/studio version first- then the live version from their reunion/concert- The concert called The Dance- both versions very different- and fantastic! The studio really shows the tribal chant with drums, etc.. In The Dance concert performance, they bring in an entire marching band..as they all just start entering the venue doors - Very impressive, so the video for the live is absolutely necessary-! Both versions are a musts- I’m sure it’s already been explained that Lindsay is singing lead here..and you can hear Stevie backing up on this one-
Girl, I have seen you comment on this channel (or maybe also "Jamel aka Jamal") many times. I think it's because my name is Kimberly and I have a pup named Bambino, so your name jumps out at me. 😄 I may have even replied to you before because you say what I'm thinking or, in this case, what I posted before seeing your comment. We may have an alternate universe thing going here! LOL
He wrote the song about his girlfriend Stevie Nix (also singing) who was cheating on him with Mic Fleetwood ( the drummer ) if I recall correctly.
Since Stevie wrote songs aimed at Lyndsey Buckingham, he wrote this song as an answer to hers. They were lovers and had a massive breakup during the taping of their best album Rumors. This song actually bumped one of Stevie’s that she wrote to deal with her heartbreak over their split called Silver Springs, another great song written by Stevie. I believe this one was the longest top ten hit they ever had also. And yes, Lyndsey Buckingham is one of the best guitarists ever though he gets little credit for it. I was privileged to see them on-stage in their reunion tour. They were, are and remain one of our generations greatest groups ever.
Lex....love your reactions...you seem so open and it is beautiful. Brad...you always seem skeptical, which is endearing in its own way, but listen to Lex...you guys are too cute together.
In August 1967, Fleetwood Mac made its live debut at the Windsor Jazz and Blues Festival in England. Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Peter Green and Jeremy Spencer made up the group’s lineup at the festival......Fleetwood Mac’s name comes from the last names of the original drummer and bassist: Mick Fleetwood and John McVie. But neither of them suggested that name. Original guitarist and singer Peter Green came up with the name and Fleetwood later said it was an example of Green’s selflessness.
This was the album EVERYBODY had at the time. It was totally good from first track to last. It was also the expression of all the drama inside the band at the time.
Cue drone shot. Pacific Coast Highway. Convertible old school Corvette with the top down. Summertime. Shades on. Tank's full. Road trip!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd forgotten how such amazing musicianship and peppy sound hides such sad lyrics in their songs. All breakup songs, and betrayal...
Go Your Own Way has been used in numerous movies such as, Casino, Forrest Gump, Clerks, and even a Jeep commercial. Even the most modest classic rock music collections includes Rumours.
I'm sure this has been used in a lot of things, but it debuted on Fleetwood Mac's Rumors album that came out in 1977. Everybody had that album, and its songs were ubiquitous on the radio, at parties, everywhere. One hit after another from it.
Bob Welch used to sing for Fleetwood Mac also.. "Hypnotized " is an awesome classic tune!..
How can you not have heard this song - it would have to be one of the most flogged to death songs over the last 20 years. On radio, commercials, movies ...................
Stevie was the lead in the majority of their songs, but Lindsey Buckingham (who you hear here singing and he's the amazing lead guitar) has his songs that he sings ("Go Your Own Way" is probably his most famous, but there's also "Second Hand News" where you can hear Stevie a lot in this one, and "Don't Stop" is another well-known one of his. Christy McVee (the keyboard/pianist) has her songs as well, her most famous being "You Make Loving Fun" and there's "Daddy" and "Everywhere" and more. Her ex-husband, John McVee is bass guitar and the amazing drummer is Mick Fleetwood. I'm waiting for the movie about their whole history to come out at some point, because it's been quite a ride!
Whenever I hear this song I always think back to one particular time in my high-school days. This was back in the day when Rumors was still a new release from Fleetwood Mac. Me and two friends were driving down the highway, it was summer, the car windows were open and this song was blasting on the car stereo. Life was so much simpler then. It's a favorite memory of mine, and this is one of my favorite songs. One final thought - Lex mentioned this sounded like a movie song. I've long thought that this whole album could be turned into the sound track of a movie. I know there is a real life dramatic backstory to the making of Rumors, but I envision a coming of age film, set in summer where every song is part of the soundtrack.
One of the biggest rock songs and band of the 70's legendary! Stevie Nicks is one of three female singers of the group and then there's Lyndsey Buckingham
Had no idea you guys never did this song. Fleetwood Mac was my first concert as a kid back in sixth grade, late 70's. Hard for us middle age white people to believe anyone hasn't heard this song, lol. One of the funnest drum lines of all time. Love you guys, cheers, thumbs up. P.S. Edit Trivia: Half the band is from America, half from England. :)
Fleetwood Mac had three lead singers, Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie and Lindsey Buckingham (who is the guitarist as well). Mick Fleetwood on drums and John McVie on bass.
Love this song ❤️ The lyrics, vocals, guitar, that hard hitting drum. One of my favs.
You two pick the most incredible songs
I remember it was in the soundtrack to casino. Mob movie. Robert de Nero jeo pesci and sharon stone
I’m pretty sure it’s been used in commercials. Several of the songs from this album have heavy back beats. The song “Tusk” plays in the opening scene of the pilot episode of “The Americans” and is perfect.
Surprised you had not reacted to this yet, it was one of the best songs from one of the biggest albums of the 70s. Great band, in their many forms but this was the best version of this amazing group. Try I'm So Afraid, it was a highlite live. Enjoy. 🎵
I had no idea how Great Lyndsey Buckingham was until I saw Fleetwood Mac live. WOW. I saw them in 1982
This track was used in the movie Casino as well as Forrest Gump ;)
Everything on RUMOURS is good. What a classic album. 😊
The rhythmn section is magic. Love Mick's staccato machine bursts of drum fire. Great to watch live when they played for Clinton.
There are 3 vocalists for this version of the band stevie nicks,lyndsey buckingham and christine mcvie they share lead vocals for the albums from this era. Great reaction 👍🏻
Stevie Nicks is harmonizing with Lindsay Buckingham on Go Your Own Way, the lead on this song. There are three lead singers in that version of Fleetwood Mac. And yes, you probably did switch timelines, Brad. It happens all the time. Reality is fluid and sort of unlimited.
Wife here..Knowing the band's " romantic" past..makes this message crystal clear!!..Always loved this 🎵 song!!..Lex..I've been playing rhythm guitar for about 30 years now..It's always exciting to hear about what you're working on!
Awesome song
Stevie Nicks was late to the band. But this album rumors came out when I was in 9th grade and it is definitely the music of my youth. Every song on this album was a hit to some degree or the other really you could just cover every song on this album and they are all fascinating and wonderful. Once again Lex, I love how you hear the music in the feel of it and totally get into it and understand it and Brad also you pay 100% attention just in your own more analytical way. Just great.
that's Lyndsey Buckingham on lead guitar and vocals, he and Stevie were a couple when they joined the group, Christine McVie who's normally on the keyboards was the wife of the base player John McVie and Christine also sings lead vocals to some of their songs...
