Rumours By Fleetwood Mac

By JT Stevens


Over the past few years vinyl records, particularly classic ones, have made a comeback on mainstream music entertainment. A lot of companies have created machines that had classic style, yet modern technology, that could play old vinyl records, like the collection of Crosley Record Players. Using these kinds of machines, people who love old, classic records, like Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours", can now enjoy them with a modern twist.

The band Fleetwood Mac is considered to be one of the most popular bands that ever existed. It was a creation of American and British musicians, founded by Peter Green, with John McVie and Mick Fleetwood, in 1967. The band's first and formative years were very successful, and brought them to heights of popularity, but it almost didn't continue when Peter Green left the group.

Almost everyone, both fans and critics, felt that Fleetwood Mac was finished. However, they were proven wrong when Fleetwood, McVie, then new member Stevie Nicks, and the rest of Fleetwood Mac, surged ahead. The problems and troubles they encountered during this difficult time were used by the band to create what would be the band's most popular album, and one of the most successful records in the music industry, "Rumours".

Fans love "Rumours" because the album is considered a triumph against disaster. And both fans and critics love that Fleetwood Mac used their troubles and issues as inspiration and fuel for the creative fire. This creative fire produced a number of popular songs that are still being listened to to this day.

Songs like "Second Hand News", "Dreams", and "Go Your Own Way" make up "Rumours", and all of these songs have become very popular. These songs, and the others found in "Rumours", have made Fleetwood Mac the famed and loved band they are today. In fact, the album and songs are so timeless that even today younger fans can still enjoy the music of what was arguably Fleetwood Mac's best work.

People young and old can today get copies of the songs from "Rumours" in a digital MP3 format that can be listened to using digital music devices. Even if you're a diver, swimmer, fisherman, or anyone working near water, using a waterproof MP3 player would allow you to listen to "Rumours" easily. It is an album that everyone must absolutely listen to!
