"Fleetwood Mac" is the tenth album by the British-American band Fleetwood Mac, released in 1975. It was the band's second eponymous album; the first was their 1968 album. This is the first Fleetwood Mac album to feature Lindsey Buckingham as guitarist and Stevie Nicks as vocalist, after Bob Welch departed the band in late 1974.

The album reached number one on the Billboard 200 over a year after entering the chart, and set a record for most weeks on the chart before reaching the top position (broken in 1989, when Paula Abdul's Forever Your Girl took 64 weeks to reach #1). It launched three top twenty singles: "Over My Head", "Rhiannon" and "Say You Love Me", the last two falling just short of the top ten, both at #11. In 1986, it was certified 5x platinum by the RIAA representing shipments of five million units.

Until the release of this album, Fleetwood Mac's albums generally sold around 300,000 - 350,000 copies apiece. This album helped launch them as musical superstars with an almost constant radio presence (which would be continued with their even more popular follow-up, Rumours). In 2003, the album was ranked #183 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

In Britain, the album was initially largely ignored and the first three singles lifted from the album failed to chart, therefore, generating limited interest in the album and the new line-up of the band. Only "Say You Love Me" charted on the UK Singles Chart and it reached #40. With the massive success of Rumours in 1977 and interest in the band re-ignited, Fleetwood Mac was issued again in 1978, along with the re-release of "Rhiannon" which peaked just outside the Top 40 at #46. The album eventually peaked at #23 on the UK Album Chart but was a prelude to a run of hugely successful albums for the band in Britain, including four multi-platinum #1s: Rumours, Tusk, Tango in the Night and Behind the Mask.

The album peaked at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart with sales of 158,000.

  • for all the 50 and 60 somethings out there this album is ageless lets pass it on to the new rockers out there

  • "Landslide" is easily the best one on here; with the perfect sound from the mouth of Stevie Nicks.

  • Monday morning! I just want to get up and get down and rock to this Lindsay Buckingham groover of a song! I'll be there if you want me to!

  • @LORDGOAT1976 There was the old tale that Buckingham learned acoustic guitar from latter-day Kingston Trio front John Stewart & that Stewart learned 'lectric listening to Buckingham.

  • @infinera06 It's true. Anyway I prefer Stevie and Christine to Lindsey. Even though I like Lindsey's work very much.

  • @TroubleinBellaDonna Of course not. But the ones that were were.

  • @infinera06 Not all the songs written by Stevie and Christine for this album were released as singles.

  • @TroubleinBellaDonna The best songs are usually released as singles. None of which were Lindsay's from this album.

  • @infinera06 All the songs of this album are great. Even the ones sung by Lindsey. But you prefer Stevie and Christine's voices, don't you ?

  • @infinera06 wow really? BOLD statement
