Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Given their monumental legacy, it's hard to imagine that the so-called "classic edition" of Fleetwood Mac essentially came together casually over chips and margaritas at an L.A. eatery; the then-obscure duo of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks (whose own mid-'70s debut album had initially gone almost straight to the cut-out bins) became the crucial axis of the legendary band without so much as a formal audition. As the eponymous title suggests, the 1975 Mac realignment seems like a fresh start, though tracks like Christine McVie's smooth-jazz inflected "Warm Ways" hearken back to the Bob Welch/Bare Trees/Heroes Are Hard to Find era. But it's Buckingham's compelling, updated take on '60s California folk-pop, informed by the mystique of Nicks's proto-New Age song-sorceress presumptions, that breathed new life into the veteran, chameleonic band on now-familiar songs like "Monday Morning" and "Rhiannon." His chemistry with McVie is no less powerful, yielding such Mac staples as their collaboration "World Turning" and suffusing her "Over My Head" with nervous, insistent guitar rhythms. This deluxe, remastered edition features the significantly different single mixes of "Say You Love Me," "Rhiannon," "Over My Head," and "Blue Letter" (the latter previously unissued), as well as the moody, also unreleased studio workout "Jam #2." Parke Puterbaugh's newly penned liner notes offer concise, thoughtful insights into the genesis of one of rock's greatest, if most unlikely, rebirths. --Jerry McCulley

Before there was Rumours, Fleetwood Mac released their more unknown re-debute, which displayed their new-found pop style, in contrast to the blues rock of the Peter Green-led Fleetwood Mac. While not as classic as their smash album, Rumours, this album stands on it's own, actually. It's hardly a developing relic of the sound of Rumours, it doesn't feel like a cheap prototype, nope, it's just more great music, different enough to stand on it's own from Rumours (I don't prefer the music as much as I do from Rumours, but that's not because of style, it's simply a matter of preference).
Aside from the very bland and boring Crystal, your looking at ten great tracks here, no bad songs, but nothing but great pop music. Like the smash hit Rumours, you can tell the different styles of each. As usual, Mcvie writes upbeat, a bit melancholy pop songs, and she still sings in that stunning voice she has. When she slows it down for Warm Ways and Over My Head, it's just as stunning as she is in songs like Say You Love Me. Stevie Nicks, actually gives her absolute best, as her smaller contributions make up for amazing songs. Buckingham is the master of making those bouncy pop songs, and with this album, throws the fantastic I'm So Afraid at the end of the album. While were on the subject of Buckingham, he plays some of his most passionate solos here, from bluesly licks, to sensual, scorching, I agree with the people who say that his playing is underrated (same goes for John's ...

I bought this CD specifically for 'Monday Morning' and the original rendition of 'Rhiannon' and I was not dissapointed. While this isn't their *best* work in my opinion (See 'Rumours' for that!), the music is great...as I say in the title, a good additional for any true fans of Fleetwood Mac!

I intended to purchase the MP3 for Fleetwood Mac, Fleetwood Mac (white cover). When I clicked to buy the entire album, the Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac came up, whatever that is. I downloaded the latter by mistake and it IS NOT the Fleetwood Mac that I have in vinyl. In my opinion, it's junk.
