Joe asked how there was a Fleetwood Mac before McVie was in the band. Well... Peter Green played with John Mayall after Clapton left, and Fleetwood and McVie were Mayall's rhythm section. Green left Mayall to lead his own band and was hoping to get Fleetwood and McVie to join him. He even named the band after them to sell them on it. Fleetwood quit Mayall and joined Green, but McVie liked the steady pay of the more established gig. but then he changed his mind.

I think Buckingham is an obvious top pick because, as Joe said, the direction of the band changed with his presence. But, I would also say that Stevie Nicks had as much an influence. I find it strange that Jason that Dreams is his favourite Mac song but doesn't seem to credit Nicks here. I would argue that her songwriting has way more depth, complexity and character than McVie's. Though Christine's songs are solid, whether it's Say You Love Me, You Make Loving Fun, Think About Me, Little Lies, they're all very similar lyrically. Here is where I would take issue with both Joe and Jason on Nicks' post-Rumours output. To me Sara, Beautiful Child, Sisters of the Moon and Storms are all stunning. Her emotive and heartfelt lyrics complement the varied melodic feel of each of the songs compared to McVie's catchy but ultimately shallow songs. There's no doubt that without Buckingham and Nicks, Fleetwood Mac would be a fairly run-of-the-mill band rather than a great one. Both their personalities drove the band in a new exciting direction. Reflecting on the band, listening to side one of Tusk, you have the great arrangement of McVie's Over and Over, the guitar work of Buckingham elevating her Think About Me, his eccentric and energetic The Ledge, followed by Nicks' soulful Sara. This diversity is what made the band so interesting. Think also of side two of Tusk where Buckingham and Nicks' compositions dominate are all much more adventurous than anything McVie ever did (unless it was Buckingham's producing/arranging influence) Nicks should definitely be number 2 to Buckingham. They came as a complete package.

Interesting rankings, everybody has their favorites. One thing I would have to say is that Danny Kirwan was a much better guitarist than Bob welch. While the two were in the band Kirwan played 90% of the leads. Any intricate or blistering guitar was played by Kirwan. Welch pretty much played rhythm guitar at that time. Peter Green was definitely the best guitarist to ever play in fleetwood mac. He is an all time great.

Ok, I think Stevie’s contributions to Tusk are being undersold. Although I’m not the biggest fan of Sara (I much prefer the single edit to the tedious album cut) I think the other songs are quite solid, and I rank Sisters Of The Moon and Angel among her best material. About Jeremy Spencer’s fate, it happened some time in 1970 when the band were about to tour America. They entered the airport in (I think) LA and were constantly mugged by people with folders, this particular bunch being members of the Children Of God cult. Being known as particularly fickle-minded, Jeremy apparently got reeled in near a bookstand when he told the other members he was gonna get some cigarettes (if I’m not mistaken). Some time later they were able to track him down and he was basically kidnapped by some young recrutes of this rather dubious cult which gained notoriety because of sexual and physical (child) abuse and mind control. And Bob Weston got fired in 1974 because he slept with Mick’s wife (oh, the irony…).

Peter Green is the total package. Phenomenal songwriting with "Oh Well", "Man of the World", "Green Manalishi", "Before the Beginning", "Black Magic Woman", "Albatross", "Love that Burns", etc. Killer interpretation of songs like "Need Your Love So Bad", "I've Got a Good Mind to Give Up Living", and "Jumping at Shadows". One of the all time guitar greats, a genius at getting the most emotional impact from as few notes as possible. One of few British guitarists who actually played blues instead of an imitation. He had restraint that most guitarists wouldn't even think of. And he was a bottomless well of improvisational ideas. He was distinctive. His sense of delivery was as important to his vocals as his guitar. His writing, voice, and playing were all his own. He lifted everyone up. Danny Kirwan's best playing was bouncing off of his ideas. Mick Fleetwood says everything about the drummer he is, he owes to Green's tutelage. And he had this ability to bring out the best in whomever he played with. The classic lineup with him, Danny, and Jeremy was one of greatest live acts in rock. He even named the band to ensure that he could leave if he wanted, and his friends would still have a band.

@stevehoran55952 жыл бұрын
Just spit-balling here and my opinion is shaped largely by my seeing Fleetwood Mac as one of the best guitar bands in rock music, but I think this is how I'd rank them 1) Peter Green: he started and named the band and his reputation as one of the best guitarists and singers to emerge from the British Blues boom rests on what he did with Fleetwood Mac. Albatross, Man Of the World, Oh Well, and Green Manalishi are four of their best songs and he wrote them all. 2) Danny Kirwan: when he joined the band they really became Fleetwood Mac. As great as Peter's lead guitar work was, Danny raised the intensity by playing with more feel. He might have had the best vibrato in the rock guitar field. After Green left, he co-lead them through three albums transitioning them further from blues to pop-rock. His highlights over those albums include Station Man, Jewel-Eyed Judy, Sands Of Time, The Sunny Side Of Heaven, and Dust. 3) Lindsey Buckingham: He's not in the same league as Peter and Danny in electric lead guitar playing but his acoustic playing is better and gave the band more range and he was a great arranger for his own songs and for Stevie's. He still fit in well as far as being right for the SoCal style the band had been adopting on the earlier, post-Green albums. 4) Mick Fleetwood: Not only is the band named after him and McVie but he's been with them through the band's entire history and it seems he's been sort of the manager/leader since the early members fell away. Also, his spooky, tribal drumming on songs like Black Magic Woman and Coming Your Way give the band a little bit of the menace they had early on. 5) Stevie Nicks: her singing and writing revitalized the band and gave them huge hits. She is the band's superstar. Also, I think you guys underrate the eponymous 1975 album. That was our introduction to Buckingham Nicks and it established a beachhead for Rumours. Rhiannon was so fresh at the time and I still think it might be her best song. 6) Christine McVie: She rivals Stevie so far as having a bunch of hits with the band plus she was, like Kirwan, a major piece through transitional albums. And the warm intimacy of her songs is a major part of the FM sound. 7) John McVie: the other half of the rhythm section in the band's name. He's good and consistent. 8) Jeremy Spencer: I wasn't fond of his Elmore James slide guitar songs in the early days but I like his goofy contributions to Kiln House and he was a major part of their live shows; he'd sing old rockabilly and teen rock classics and the band would really fucking rock them out! You won't hear this on their studio albums but they were a great rock band in the early days. Also, his Somebody's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In Tonight is great. A lot of the great early Mac stuff isn't on the studio albums. I like Sentimental Lady but other than that I'm not a big Bob Welch fan. I don't think his smooth jazz approach worked too well with FM. The other people passing through I don't know about as they played on LPs off my radar.

Are we ranking by talent, dedication to the band, public persona? The different members brought this by one degree or another just not in the same order. Peter Green basically invented the band (as well as being a brilliant guitarist and songwriter). Mick Fleetwood is probably the most dedicated. Lindsay is probably the most talented (and the least dedicated). And let’s face it the band would not have enjoyed all the success it did without Stevie’s public persona (plus she gave the band it’s only number one hit with Dreams). And I just adore Christine McVie she seems to be all of these things (and she gave the band most of it’s hits). Wow this is really hard. Bob Welch is good just never in the right place at the right time. Jeremy Spencer gave them their hard core blues reputation. Danny Kirwan kinda bridged the blues to pop gap between Green and Buckingham-Nicks. Wow this is really hard. I can’t do it.

It's hard to see Spencer being placed above Green. Obviously i'm a bit of a Green fan. But Spencer isn't really a songwriter. He only wanted to play either Elmore James style slide blues or 50s rock'n'roll, so his songs are copies of those two things. And while his slide playing sounds good, he really only plays that one thing. He's the reason there are 4 songs with the same intro on the 2nd record. When Green's songwriting starts to branch out Spencer doesn't even play on those songs. Green and Kirwan do a lot of interesting back'n'forth while Spencer plays marracas. Green's singing and playing are more dynamic and more nuanced. Again... i know, i'm clearly a Peter Green fan. And it's easier to pick up on what he does well on live stuff, including TV appearances where you can see them in action. The much bootlegged Live In Boston record from 1970 that unfortunately got shelved when Green had his mental breakdown really shows where that version of the band was going. (okay, i'll stop now).

It is on youtube, Letterman's reaction afterwards is priceless. I went to see Tina Turner in '92 or '93 because Lindsey was her opening act, and was blown away, seeing him live. Years later, I was able to see Fleetwood Mac, unfortunately Christine Mcvie had retired from touring durng that tour. And not to make you guys too jealous, but I was blessed enough to see the "Behind The Mask" tour. Actually not a bad evening, first time seeing them live, as well as Pat Benatar, who opened the show.

Horses for courses, of course, and if we all liked the same artists to the same degree, there’d be nothing to discuss or argue about, but such a low rating for Peter Green, especially if we’re talking about contribution to the band, is scandalous! I initially got into FM through Jeremy Spencer’s incendiary slide playing, but Peter Green’s guitar work is exquisite. He and Danny Kirwan took the band from a very good pub blues band to one writing masterpieces like Albatross, Man of the World (one of the saddest songs ever), Oh Well and the frightening Green Manalishi in a couple of years. Who knows where they’d have ended up had he not succumbed to mental illness. The mind boggles. There’d probably never have been a Buckingham/Nicks era, which would have robbed the world of some amazing pop music, some of the best. Maybe he had to leave for the band to metamorphosise(?) into the Rumours band, but given what he did, what he wrote and what he played and ultimately what his departure eventually led the way to, I’m amazed he is ranked so low. Again, just my opinion.

This incarnation barely registered stateside, so it is understandable that a casual music fan from the U.S. wouldn’t resonate with that period of Fleetwood Mac. The Nicks/Buckingham era was popular everywhere, but especially in the states. From ‘75 onwards, they’re pretty much an American affair, I’d say.

Not much point in ranking those that had minimal time or impact in the band, so my list includes just the essential personnel, the top 9, and obviously shows my personal preferences. 9. Jeremy Spencer 8. Peter Green 7. Danny Kirwan 6. Stevie Nicks 5. Lindsay Buckingham 4. John McVie 3. Mick Fleetwood (Fleetwood and McVie have been there through it all, providing the solid backbone of the band) 2. Bob Welch (May be controversial, but I enjoy his music and contributions more than Buckingham/Nicks era 1. Christine McVie (More than anyone else, she represents Fleetwood Mac throughout all their stages, and has contributed the most). Eight of these nine essential members were all included in the band's induction into the RnR Hall of Fame (1998). The only one that wasn't included was Bob Welch, an absolutely criminal omission.

Was so hoping you guys would do “Ranking the members” for side 3. Great job on all these. You guys know a lot more about a lot of artists than I do, but If there’s one thing I do know, its Fleetwood Mac and you guys pretty much “got it”, other than under rating Green a bit, and being overly hard on Burnette and Vito, BTM, and Time. Check out some live clips of Vito tearing into Peter Green’s blues stuff in the late 80’s. You forgot to include the screens with your printed lists and your averaged lists? I can live with either Christine or Lindsey in the #1 spot but Christine gets the nod in my book for her longevity, consistency, and overall volume of great songs. 1. Christine McVie (the songs, the hits, the voice, the tenure!) 2. Lindsey Buckingham (the vision, the production, best guitarist ever!) 3. Mick Fleetwood (the tenacity, the drumming) 4. Bob Welch (kept em going in the wilderness years, underrated) 5. John McVie (the bassing, the attitude) 6. Stevie Nicks (the popularity, the poetry) 7. Peter Green (that guitar sound) 8. Danny Kirwan (created some great moody songs) 9. Billy Burnette (great singer, songwriter, underrated) 10. Rick Vito (great guitarist, best outfits!) 11. Bekka Bramlett (wonderful soulful vocalist, hated for no reason!) 12. Jeremy Spencer (important early on but does not resonate with me) 13 Dave Mason (good songwriter, but zero influence, and only on Time) 14 Dave Walker (one good song- the Derelict!) 15 Bob Weston (hard to say- he didn’t do much- co vocals on “Did you ever love Me”?, nearly broke up the band by having affair with Fleetwood’s wife)

My two favorites are Spencer and Kirwan. But not based on just Fleetwood Mac. Love their voices and guitar sound. There were lots of great artists within The Family on all their Heaven's Magic productions so Spencer does not really feel like a star there even though his contributions are very welcome. And the second side of Spencer's Flee album from 79 is very enjoyable. Kirwan did a lot more for Fleetood Mac. And then 3 fairly enjoyable solo albums afterwards.
@roxannewalsh2 жыл бұрын
I know all of those solo albums. I found the Flee album long ago on LP in a one dollar bin and since I never found the CD I even ripped it to lossless files and saved it on CD. There was something in the chemistry of Fleetwood Mac that brought out the best of those guys. Neither those two nor Bob Welch could make it on their own. (In my opinion, those solo albums can all be filed under what today is called Yacht Rock - the boring kind. Fleetwood Mac often were close to it but always retained some class.)

@roxannewalsh2 жыл бұрын
Peter Green introduced a completely different type of guitar player to the late 60s when everybody wanted to be faster, flashier and louder than the next guy. He was all about tone and mood and he created it with a few - the right - notes. That desperation in Green Manalishi, the hidden danger in Black Magic Woman or the effortlessly gliding majestic Albatros. Even non-musicians could feel his emotions painted in every of his songs...musicians even more. Gary Moore dedicated a whole album to him (Blues For Greeny), Snowy White built his career on that tone, players as diverse as Mike Campbell, Mark Knopfler or Kirk Hammett name him as a major influence (Hammett even paid an enormous sum to get one of Green's original guitars). Carlos Santana saw Fleetwood Mac in 1969 and not only covered Black Magic Woman but also covered much of his approach (which was not so hard for him as both had their common roots in BB King anyway). Not to forget that Green himself recovered in the late 1970s and started a second solo career with a number of classic albums (In the Skies, Little Dreamer, White Sky and many more).

@@roxannewalsh Did you hear how he got that out of phase tone? He accidentally put in his pickup backwards after cleaning his fretboard ,and decided to keep it that way. I think what is missing in these guys rankings ,since theyre only ranking albums and songs,is what a charismatic performer he was live. I'm too young too have seen him in his prime,but there is plenty of evidence on KZfaq. Jimmy Page said in the 60's"he's the best of all of us. Best player,singer and songwriter" when referring to the british guitarists coming out of the '60's. There is a story where he was jamming with Hendrix,and suddenly Hendrix stopped playing and stared at him,like he was transfixed. Apparantly,Hendrix likely very stoned,told him"man I need to touch your hair" lol

Lindsey is #1. He took the band to another level. Stevie solo is good meat and potatoes rock but her songs Lindsey worked on, playing/producing/arranging, are something else entirely. Gypsy is a good example, the way that song is put together on Mirage is incredible. Even if you take Stevie out entirely, a Lindsey, Christine, John and Mick lineup would still be one of the greatest bands of all time. So, Christine #2, John #3 and Mick #4. Welch and Kirwan also deserve high placings.

The placing of Stevie Nicks is way off. The way to view this is what you’d be left with if they’d never been in the band. If Stevie had never been in the band you’d be without some of their most iconic songs and you’d be without their lead singer and figurehead. Without her, you’d lose “Dreams”; “Seven Wonders”; “Sara”; “Landslide”; “Silver Springs”; “Gold Dust Woman”; “Gypsy”; “Rhiannon”; “Storms”; “Sisters of the Moon”. You take away those songs from Fleetwood Mac, the band no longer has iconic status. She is easily in the top 3 most important members of the band.

This is the first ranking the members video I have seen, but I think you are underperfoming this concept in two ways. First, I think you could do these a lot more, not just when there have been 20+ members. Rank the members of Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath (which actually did have quite many players over the years), Who, Queen, Iron Maiden, E Street Band, et cetera. This could very well be your permanent side three. Or have a month dedicated to it, similar to your March Badness, but call it Members May, where each week (or weekday!) you rank the members of a famous band. Secondly, I think you are dropping the ball a bit by having three individual lists of your own. It works well in your main videos, because each of you has their own tastes and preferences, but here I think trying to achieve a consensus would work better. It would enable way more debate and discussion about the contributions of any single member, which is more interesting than just spelling out three different lists of names. The way I see it, you start chronologically and then just ask if the next member goes above or below the earlier ones, and allow swapping at the end. "Band member B, do they go above or below A? Okay, below. How about C? Below B, okay. And D? Between B and C? Alright. E? Between D and C." And so on, while giving arguments for or against the member, if there are any. You can allow ties too if you need to. "F plays drums very well, but does not compose songs, so they can tie with C or D." Besides, there are three of you, so in worst case you can just outvote the outlier. Good thing is that most bands do not have 20 or so members, but rather maybe 6 or 7, with only 4 or 5 truly prominent ones, so these lists do not have to be super long. But I would be certainly interested in hearing the debate!
