Fleetwood Mac
Fleetwood Mac are a British-American rock band, formed in London in 1967. The band was founded by guitarist Peter Green, drummer Mick Fleetwood and guitarist Jeremy Spencer. Keyboardist Christine Perfect and John McVie were also added later to the band. Fleetwood Mac released their self-titled debut album in 1968, bringing the band overnight success. However, the band’s career really took off after the addition of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to the band in 1974. The duo contributed towards a more pop-rock/folk-rock sound. However, a milestone in the career of the band was the release of their eleventh album Rumours in 1977. Rumours has sold in over 40 million copies worldwide, making it the eighth-highest-selling album to the date. It is also considered as one of the best rock albums of all time.
Although the band has been through many line up changes with most recently the firing of Lindsay Buckingham, Fleetwood Mac are one of the best-selling and most influential bands of all time. The band was inducted in Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 1998. They also won numerous music awards over the years and are still performing at many festivals around the world.
