Fleetwood Mac prepares to go on tour again

LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- After a three-year break, Fleetwood Mac is hitting the road again for a major national tour. It also marks a milestone, the 35th anniversary of the release of "Rumours," one of the most successful albums of all time.

 Fleetwood Mac is preparing to go on a big arena tour, including stops in late May at Anaheim's Honda Center and the Hollywood Bowl.

"It makes you stay young. It makes you stay vibrant. We're in a wonderful, mysterious, crazy band. So we get to stay young because of this," said Stevie Nicks.

On the new tour, you will hear the songs that make up the foundation of the band, but it may have a different feel to it, according to Lindsey Buckingham.

"It's what you do around the edges, the colors that you use to sort of accent everything else that makes the set different," Buckingham said.

 A deluxe re-issue of "Rumours" comes out next week.

"Broadcast story scheduled for Tuesday January 29th on CBS affiliates nationwide, & possibly international TV affiliates in U.K., Australia, Japan, etc."

Japan?  Really?!... Could that mean their are tour plans for Japan? [just speculating here]. Would be cool, it's been decades since they've been!

They all look great!!  But they're missing John! (He's not a fan of the promotional wheel).

Rumours made the band one of the most iconic bands of the 1970s and garnered wide critical praise, earned the Grammy® for Album of the Year, and has now sold more than 40 million copies worldwide since its 1977 debut.

In  celebration of the release, the current lineup of the band, Mick  Fleetwood and John McVie, both original members since 1967, and Lindsey  Buckingham and Stevie Nicks, who joined the band in 1975, will kick off  and their first U.S. tour since 2009 in April.

RUMOURS will be available January 29 from  Rhino as the expanded edition ($24.98) and the deluxe edition ($99.98).  Digital versions will also be available.

Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks recorded Rumours  against a backdrop personal turmoil, chronicling their raw emotions in  songs like “Go Your Own Way,” “Gold Dust Woman” and “Dreams,” the latter  becoming the band’s first number one smash.

The disc of 12 unreleased live recordings from the band’s 1977 Rumours tour  features performances from concerts in Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Nashville  and Columbia, S.C. The songs include album tracks like “The Chain,” “Oh  Daddy” and “Songbird” as well as “World Turning” and “Rhiannon,” two  tracks from the group’s 1975 eponymous release.

Producers also have compiled a selection of  16 unreleased recordings from the album’s sessions including early takes  of “Go Your Own Way,” “I Don’t Want To Know” and the popular b-side “Silver Springs.” There are also several demo recordings, including one  for the outtake “Planets of the Universe,” plus an instrumental version  of “Never Going Back Again.”

The deluxe edition of Rumours features three additional pieces. First is an 18-track compilation of session outtakes originally released in the 2004 reissue of the album. Next is the original album on 140-gram vinyl. Finally, there is a DVD with “The Rosebud Film.” This 1977 documentary  by Michael Collins includes interviews, rehearsal footage and live  performances of: “World Turning,” “Rhiannon,” “Say You Love Me,” “Go  Your Own Way,” “You Make Loving Fun” and “I’m So Afraid.” 

RUMOURS: DELUXE EDITION
Track Listing

Lindsey Buckingham's Go Your Own Way and Stevie Nicks' Dreams were clearly telling both sides of the same story

At 35, Rumours is still one album you can believe in

Mention the year 1977 to lads of a particular musical bent and you're likely to be regaled with a torrent of memories about the excitement surrounding new releases by the Pistols, Buzzcocks and The Clash, seeing the latter in Trinity and watching our own Radiators from Space develop into the best Irish band of their generation.

All of that did take place, of course, as well as Bowie releasing the iconic single Heroes (UK chart placing No 24 and didn't feature in the US charts at all, so it's taken a while for the song's significance to become apparent) but in the wider world the album charts were dominated by the Eagles' Hotel California and Rumours by Fleetwood Mac.

Both of those records were inescapable for most of that year, with Rumours emerging in January and dominating the airwaves and in-store plays for 12 months or more. The story of Rumours and Fleetwood Mac in general is now the stuff of rock'n'roll legend. Although big sellers in their blues-rock incarnation in the mid-Sixties, by the early Seventies Fleetwood Mac were a busted flush, until bassist John McVie's notion of incorporating the Californian duo of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks opened the key to the golden door. An eponymous 1975 album cracked the million-mark Stateside but the band themselves were cracking up by the time they started work on the much-anticipated follow-up. McVie and his wife Christine were splitting up, as were Buckingham and Nicks and big bags of cocaine were sitting beside the recording console -- what could possibly go wrong?

Chaos

What eventually emerged from the madness and chaos was a record which seemed like glossy but slightly left-field west coast pop-rock on the outside but contained a bitter, fractious undertow.

Buckingham's Go Your Own Way and Nicks's Dreams were clearly telling both sides of the same story, while The Chain, despite providing the BBC's Formula 1 theme for decades, just sounded plain weird.

And what's more, 35 years later the album still sounds great.

The 35th anniversary edition of Rumours is released next Friday
