Great video Mazzy . I was obsessed with early 70s Fleetwood Mac albums. I loved Mystery to me when it came out. I ‘ve heard that it was Mick’s personal favorite. Then Play On kicks butt also. I have an old jukebox single with Oh Well / Green Manelishi . That’s an interesting 45!

Super enjoyed this! Your rankings certainly upended expectations (Tango in the Night last? Whoa. Though I do agree about the problematic '80s sound), and I appreciate the perspective of someone who got so saturated with Rumours in the late '70s that you couldn't revisit it for decades. I'm too young to remember any of that. In any case, your timing is excellent as I am wrapping up a deep, deep Fleetwood Mac and all things related dive. My top tier of Mac albums include (alphabetical order) Bare Trees (fucking LOVE that one), Rumours, self-titled '75, Then Play On, Tusk. I should also mention that I really got into Buckingham's solo work, especially enjoying Go Insane and his most recent, self-titled work. Thanks again for the video. (Btw, did you forget Mirage? Or did I just miss it?)

When Then Play On was initially released, it did not have "Oh Well" but had 4 songs penned by Danny Kirwan. It did not sell well. Suddenly, Fleetwood Mac had a hit with "Oh Well". So almost immediately, I mean within a month, Reprise deleted the original release, deleted the 4 Danny Kirwan songs: ("When You Say", "One Sunny Day", "Without You" and "My Dream") and added "Oh Well". You can seek out the British Release (I got lucky and found a copy in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1979) or buy the new reissued CD which contains everything; the Danny Kirwan tunes and "Oh Well". Also, "Station Man" from Kiln House was Pete Townsend's favorite Fleetwood Mac tune. He told that to Mick Fleetwood who conveyed it to Danny who expressed disbelief: "I would have thought he hated it." Liked it so much in fact that when Mick Fleetwood put on a tribute to Peter Green (Greenie was still alive but did not show), and Pete Townsend was invited as one of the contributors, he picked that song to play. And for those that think Townsend has his head up his ass and "it's all about him", he introduced it by saying to the audience: "listen to this" and he played the last chords from "Won't Get Fooled Again". He says something like: "enough of that" and launches into "Station Man". Suddenly at a certain part of the song, the audience realizes he lifted that riff from Danny and he was "subtly" acknowledging that fact. "Station Man" came first. You can view this on KZfaq.

Big fan of the bluesy period of Fleetwood Mac and I would buy all of their Peter Green’s albums, starting with the album that got me converted, Then Play On, with the long version of Oh Well, my all time favorite song. It’s impressive how many albums you have, and the knowledge you shared, love it. I do like both bands, the one with Peter Green’s influence and the one after, which I got to know more till I moved to Spain in the 80’s and got to hear Oh Well on the radio in the middle of one night. I really loved Tusk a lot when I first heard it, and I played it the most on cassette. I’m surprised you didn’t mention Then Play On! Hahaha, I saw you put it as number 1, spot on, we agree on it. I’m assuming you have Green’s In the Sky, I love his guitar playing. With your rating, I’ll have to go back and play them all. Great video, I enjoyed it very much!

Being a very young lad ( not even in kindergarten) in 1968 , I didn’t get a chance to hear the early Fleetwood Mac records.

I subscribed to your channel not only because of your wit and charm, but mainly to hear your stories and more importantly your knowledge. Those early releases with Peter Green are fantastic and I see why you ranked them high on your list.

I live in Australia so I was introduced to Fleetwood Mac through the song Albatross. Been a fan ever since - and I like all the "versions" of Fleetwood Mac. I was glad you put Tusk so high. This is a great album. There were a couple of albums I wasn't aware of. Fleetwood Mac were great because they moved through several music genres so I found it difficult to "rate" the albums. Anyway I love your videos because you put that personal touch in and you use context. Whether I (we) agree is totally irrelevant. "It's not the ending - it's the journey that is important". Thanks.

Hi Mazzy. I love the fact that, no matter what level of success the band were enjoying, Mick Fleetwood never stopped talking about the genius of Peter Green. A truly brilliant guitarist but, as you say, the warmth of his voice was just as important to the band’s sound at that time. I actually really like Tango In The Night but that was my entry point to the band. My first ever gig was actually seeing them in Birmingham in May ‘88. Buckingham had left the band by that point, and they missed his energy, but I still like that period leading up to Behind The Mask. For me, weakest album of the Buckingham Nicks era is Mirage. Other than the singles, it’s a real damp squib compared to the eccentricities of Tusk. I like your comparison of Not That Funny and Why Don’t We Do It In The Road? Spot on.

Fleetwood Mac was one of my automatic buy bands in the 70's too. I'm surprised and happy that our rating of the albums line up really closely (except for Tusk, which I would put below 75's self-titled album). Maybe not surprising because we're both class of '72. There is a great 5 CD "Original Album Series" budget box of the best Reprise albums. Very basic but it includes Then Play On, Kiln House, Future Games, Bare Trees, and then they skip Penguin to include Mystery To Me (yay). It's about $17 on Amazon US right now. Hard to pass up. I enjoy the CD version of Then Play On because it includes the tracks that were deleted to make room for "Oh Well" on the LP version.

I also agree with your top pick as "Then Play On" however following closely behind are "Future Games" and "Bare Tress". Losing Spencer and gaining Welch which added another strong writer along with Kirwan and Perfect really coming into their own, created some of their strongest LP's to date. You described those LP's very well and was wondering why they weren't ranked higher. I respect that you DID rank the earlier blues period (At least some of it) higher then the Buckingham/Nicks era. I appreciate all your background stories and info, don't change!

A very good ranking Mazzy. While I love Rumours, I tend to agree that it got over played and I can only gravitate to it on occasion even though I was a kid in Junior High when it came out and recall hearing especially Dreams and You Make Loving Fun on the radio, but other tracks from Rumours, and from Flreetwood Mac itself, especially Rhiannon, and Over My Head were fairly big hits. I have both the 45 single of these two, and the LP, and of course, later got the CD, though the vinyl is much better. The Speed of at least Rumours is faster on the CD than on the vinyl. I recall when the song Tusk was on the radio and it seemed like it was THE hit song of that album, have that as well. I actually like Mystery to Me, didn't hear Hypnotized until the 1990's when KMTT was playing it every so often (when it was on the air, went off air in the early 2000's by changing format and call letters). It took me several years to find that album, and bought it for the song but ended up liking it as a whole. For me, Rumours ranks high up for one being a much stronger album as a whole than Fleetwood Mac, but both are very good, and the times in which Rumours documents is what makes it what it is, but again, agree, it grows on me, then it wanes due to its super popularity and it got a bit overplayed in the 70's and early 80's so I take it in doses.

Hi Mazzy. I enjoyed your KZfaq video as always. Being a fan of all the Fleetwood Mac lineups, I have a hard time ranking these albums. My personal top 10 ranking today would be: 1. Mystery to Me 2. Bare Trees 3. Future Games 4. Tusk 5. Then Play On 6. Rumours 7. Heroes Are Hard to Find 8. Fleetwood Mac (1975) 9. Tango in the Night 10. Kiln House All of these would get five stars from me. By the way, back in May 1975, Fleetwood Mac performed their very first concert with Nicks and Buckingham at the County Colosseum in El Paso. Me and my buddies at UTEP were there third row center. Imagine my surprise to find out that Welch was no longer in the band and instead there was a strange lady dressed like a Gypsy, playing a tambourine, singing with an unusual voice about a Welch witch. I had no idea who she was. I wanted to hear Hypnotized, Emerald Eyes, Future Games, and Bermuda Triangle. Instead I was subjected to the very first time they performed Landslide and Rhiannon to a live audience. I might have, regretfully, yelled a few unkind words towards the stage. I was so disappointed, but shortly afterwards Over My Head was all over the radio. so I bought their new album. After a few spins on the turntable I became Stevie Nicks’ biggest fan. I also saw her very first solo concert which was at the Summit in Houston when she was promoting Bella Donna.
@markr512 жыл бұрын
"Then Play On" has pieces of jamming scattered throughout the album with stop-and-go interludes that make it totally fascinating and engaging. Couple that with the moodier songs and the fantastic "Show-Biz Blues" and "Oh Well" and you have a "perfect" record. "Albatross" is great, but even though it isn't a Fleetwood Mac song, Peter Green's "Supernatural" on his John Mayall album, still makes the hair on my arms stand up. I believe that Carlos Santana's sustained notes were already in his bag, but he did emulate/copy Greenie. Nothing wrong with that. "Man of the World" can bring a tear to my eye.

Loved your ranking and the background stories. I was also very pleased to see Tusk so high in your rating!! By the way, did I miss something or did you forget Mirage from 1982! For me personally, it beats Rumours as well.

Hey Mazzy, personally Mr. Wonderful is my favorite, and was happy to pick up an og UK copy from Royal in Queen Anne! But I also won’t argue with Then Play On being #1. I’m a big fan of the Peter Green era and it’s a great album. “Show-Biz Blues” is one of my favorite songs in their whole catalogue. Cheers Mazzy!
@mazzysmusic2 жыл бұрын
Of course I like all these records for the most part. Mr Wonderful is a great listen but I just felt it seems like a blues cover album even though it’s mostly not. But they do it so well ✌🏼

@@mazzysmusic Agreed! But Then Play On was definitely the height of that band’s creativity and power, so solid choice Maz!

Future Games yellow cover is the first pressing. My favorite lp by the band.

Nailed it with Then Play On. My Favorite too. Kiln House probably #2. I didn’t know all three guitarists were on The Boston Tea Party set. I passed on it earlier. Definitely need it !! Thanx ! 🎶☮️🎶

I have these 3 separate volumes of the Boston Tea party releases. They are so good! Actually, a new box set is coming out that includes all the discs in it.

I became a huge mac fan around 1979, but I didn't go for the Buckingham nicks version. I went for The then play on lineup, especially green and kirwan. The way they played guitar together blew me away. The 3 cd set of the boston tea party 1970 is a must for early fleetwood mac fans. 1. Then play on 2. Bare Trees 3. Peter Green's fleetwood mac 4. Rumors 5. Future games

Mystery to Me was my introduction, followed quickly by Oh, Well and Then Play On. The Bob Welch version will always be my favorite, but I like all 3 versions. Fleetwood Mac are three of my favorite bands.

Felicidades por tan agradables e ilustrativos análisis , en lo personal mis discos favoritos son la etapa de Peter Green , después se convirtieron en una banda comercial de pop meloso , ojalá se pudieran subtitular en español sus programas ...
