In 1998, select members of Fleetwood Mac were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and received the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. The band has sold more than 100 million records worldwide, making them one of the worlds best-selling bands. Penguin is the seventh album by Fleetwood Mac, released in March 1973.The album was the first to feature lead guitarist Bob Weston and the only one with lead vocalist Dave Walker. If a greatest hit cd of Fleetwood Macs 1970 to 1974 years was made the first nine cuts would have to be on it.īare Trees- 3rd Of The Danny Kirwan Trilogy Fleetwood Mac are a British-American rock band, formed in London in 1967. This is a very fine cd except for the last song. Nicks wrote the song Rhiannon after reading a novel called Triad, by Mary Leader.Peaking at 11 on the Billboard charts (June 5, 1976), Rhiannon is undeniably one of the best Fleetwood Mac songs with Stevie Nicks on this list.NERD NOTE: Rhiannon is the name of the mythical Welsh horse goddess. Its clearly his work and his overall influence that shaped it. The heat and fire of that transition led to the creation of this album, during which they argued for a month about the proper tuning of a piano.

I would have to agree that Danny Kirwan is the real star of this album. Fleetwood Mac have been working hard, starting as a blues act and continuing after that as a pop act. Its very typical when the name Fleetwood Mac is mentioned, most think of Stevie Nicks and the phase of the band from 1975 through the early 1990s. Kiln House, Future Games, Bares Trees contains some of the best rock music ever recorded. Certified at 18 million units by the RIAA. Danny Kirwans writing, singing, guitar work is unsurpassed.

Starting with John McVies photo, right through the "thickly accented" poem at the end, this album is an oft overlooked treat.īare Trees, Dannys Chant, Dust These songs are incredible.
