Although they had largely abandoned the group’s blues roots for a more pop-oriented sound, it caught on, and the album began its climb. In 1975, the new quintet released the eponymously titled Fleetwood Mac In July of that year and it proved the breakthrough they had been looking for. It was the smartest move the band ever made. He agreed, but only if his girlfriend, vocalist Stevie Nicks, could also join.
The drummer asked guitarist-singer-songwriter Lindsey Buckingham to join Fleetwood Mac. Fleetwood heard some tracks from an album called Buckingham Nicks, by the couple belonging to those surnames. When Bob Welch, the latest guitarist/vocalist, left the band in late ’74, Fleetwood, McVie and keyboardist/vocalist Christine McVie went in search of a replacement. Then came Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Still, they remained kind of anonymous in the eyes of the rock-consuming public there had even been a fake Fleetwood Mac on the road and few had noticed or cared. They’d placed 10 albums on the American Billboard chart between 19, but none had made a significant dent-the most recent, Heroes Are Hard to Find, had been the highest-charter, reaching #34 in ’74. Their musicianship had always been superb-they had one of the tightest rhythm section in bassist John McVie and drummer Mick Fleetwood-and they’d given a home to some of the most accomplished guitarists in the U.K.: Peter Green, Danny Kirwan, Jeremy Spencer. For nearly a decade, Fleetwood Mac had been slogging it out as a respected but commercially lackluster British blues band.
