It was here that Fleetwood Mac became the iconic lineup that we’re most familiar today, and the passionate yet turbulent relationship between Buckingham and Nicks began to dominate the spotlight. In 1974, the band metamorphosed once again when Mick Fleetwood invited folk-rock duo Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to join the band. McVie, of course, knew all the songs, and with her creative input, the band began to reclaim its identity. All that changed when the band asked McVie, who was touring with her husband, to come on board. At this point, Mick Fleetwood claims that the band were lost “babes in the wood” another wannabe British rock band with no direction. Things went awry, however, after Peter Green, the guitarist and original creator of Fleetwood Mac decided to leave in 1969. Six weeks later the pair were married, and the merging of the two chart-topping bands began. We then meet John McVie, the bassist of Fleetwood Mac, who recalls spotting McVie playing the piano at a jazz festival and subsequently asks her out. Although she was initially tasked with playing keys and singing background vocals, when the band scored a hit with a cover of Etta James’ I’d Rather Go Blind with McVie on lead vocals, it quickly became evident that she was destined for greater things. We learn that McVie was working as a window dresser in the department store Dickins & Jones, until she moved back to Birmingham to join her old friends Andy Silvester and Stan Webb in a blues band called Chicken Shack. * Automatic Updates: Always stay up to date using Songbird's built-in automatic updates.How and why the driving force behind one of the world’s best-selling bands was overlooked for so long is a question that is slowly unravelled in this fascinating profile of the legendary singer-songwriter, which traces McVie’s early beginnings in Birmingham, the British blues explosion in 1960s London, and her first foray into music. * Multi-language Support: Over 25 completed.
