Fleetwood Mac Double Cover Issue of "Record Collector" Feb, 2024

 Record Collector Presents... Fleetwood Mac. 






Fleetwood Mac are no ordinary rock band, having sold 120 million albums and ruled the airwaves for half a century with an unparalleled catalogue of albums -- so our new special edition, Record Collector Presents... Fleetwood Mac, is no ordinary magazine. 

For the first time in RC’s history, we’ve compiled a double-cover issue that devotes equal love and attention to the two halves of the Mac’s career. 

Once you’ve read the story of the band’s wild early years, when guitarist supreme Peter Green redefined the blues, flip the mag over for the tale of the even wilder Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham era, when the band were beset by drugs, infidelity and chaos and still produced the unmatchable Rumours. Think you’ve read some crazy stories? Read on…

Record Collector Presents Fleetwood Mac will be in shops on 8th February, but you can pre-order your copy here:
