Rumours

Superb album. A must hear from the 70s

Didn't get a chance yet to listen all the way through this, but I like enough of the hits to assume it's at least a three. But based on the strength of Craig's biopic pitch I'll bump it up to 4 and give it a 3,000 screen release. Suck it Top Gun!

Although aware of Rumours, obviously, I've never actually listened to it straight through. I never really understood the appeal of Stevie Nicks. Honestly I was kind of rooting against liking this album. Taking it for a spin "Second Hand News" quickly vindicates my assumption that Rumours is not, in fact, the best album of all time. But man is Dreams a great song, all time great, Stevie and all. Don't Stop is all worn out, not their fault to be fair, but still. Go Your Own Way also great. Songbird isn't as pretty as it thinks it is but then boom! The Chain brings the quality level back to maximum. After You Make Loving Fun there's a bit of a lull, I don't much like Oh Daddy, but Gold Dust Woman is a strong finish. I'm afraid the faults on this album are few and far between. I can only grouch up one star to deduct, and that's pushing it.

Not a huge Fleetwood Mac fan, but this is a very good record

Genre: Pop Rock 4/5 A near-perfect pop album, and clearly Fleetwood Mac's magnum opus, Rumours is a real treat. Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks trade pop masterpieces, while Christine McVie tries desperately to keep up, in one of the best albums the decade has to offer. There are some of the best sounding records of all time on this record, as Dreams, a record that has since enjoyed a renewed popularity via TikTok, is still one of the cleanest sounding rock tracks of all time. Well-arranged, well-sung, and well-performed, it fully deserved its #1, and is still one of the best soft rock songs ever written. As the album progresses (minus Songbird and Oh Daddy), every song is a treat. Never Going Back Again is casually one of the greatest acoustic guitar songs ever written and performed, so technically challenging that they needed two guitarists to recreate it live after Lindsey left. Go Your Own Way and The Chain are two of pop rock's best ever, showcasing Fleetwood Mac's knack for catchy melodies and great songwriting. You Make Loving Fun and Don't Stop, McVie's best tracks on the album, are two others from this project that are still played on radio to this day, a testament to the true longevity of these songs. And those are just the ones I'm naming. Really good shit, and an album I think everybody should love. If they don't, they're lying.

I don;' really like Fleetwood Mac but you can't really fault this. An impressive amount of classic songs on one album

I wanted to be a "Stevie Nicks carries" guy sooo bad, but they weren't lying, you really can go your own way. High 4

It’s decent, but not quite what I wanted from an album that I’ve heard so much about. The hits really reminded me of middle school since my parents played them constantly so it was fun to hear those again. The rest felt too afraid to take risks and just stayed confined to a tried-and-true box for soft rock/pop. 7/10

All the songs are great (or nearly so) and everybody who ever set out to do a break-up album (or poem or novel) can only dream of such success. Still it’s maybe not as interesting (for not being as sprawling or messy) as Tusk. I don’t really follow the song sequencing. The opener and closer both feel out of place – not the best way to start or end. Everything in between is aces, as one used to say, if a little too neatly packaged.

Yeah great brilliant album, overplayed to death and beyond but I guess I shouldn't hold that against 'em.

This album keeps such a good tempo. It’s actually one of my get-shit-done albums. Love this one.

xcelente album viejito pro bonitoyalo habia escuchadio

White People Music

Ju kän gåo jår åvn vääääääääääj

J'apprécie plus cet album à chaque écoute. J'aime beaucoup la voix de Stevie Nicks et les guitares de Lindsey Buckingham. Dreams, Go Your Own Way et The Chain sont des incontournables.

Definitely in that category of great albums from the 70's, even of all-time on some people's lists. When it was released and dominated the radio waves with it's many hits, I tried to avoid getting caught up in the hype of Fleetwood Mac and didn't buy the album. Listening now, the record brings me waves of nostalgia and some weird fuzzy feeling when you think back to your youth...That being said, it is a classic record, but there are other amazing albums that should receive at least half the attention this one did then and now, during it's recent revived interest.

Pour Émilie

Great album

A product of Fleetwood Mac's internal turmoils, "Rumours" is hailed as one of the greatest albums of all time. It's in the top 3 of this generator's global stats, and it apparently contains some of the radio staples in the Western world. This is my second time listening to this. My first time was a long time ago, I remember enjoying the trip as a whole, especially "Dreams", which is perhaps the greatest pop-rock song that I have ever heard. None of these are an overplayed radio track in my country, where every radio station is obsessed with '80s ballads. So listening to it now, it's fairly fresh to my ears. It's not as mind-blowing as some put it, at least for me. It's just an incredibly easy listen, one that would make your feet tap and head bob along the melodies. And it has some interesting instrumental outbursts too, the buildup in "Chain" being a notable example. It's pretty cool how this band, having two couples, were able to translate their conflicts into great music, let alone a pop classic. Truly a masterpiece, not something that I would adore, but it's something that I definitely respect.

Classic.

4 for sure. Creeping up to 4.5 even.

Iconic song after iconic song. Still played all of the time on the radio.

Lovely stuff. Peaks and troughs of energy and emotion, with everyone singing except Messrs Fleetwood and Mac, as it should be.

Bacanudo

Обложка крутая, музыка тоже прикольная, такая хипповая. Приятно!

Classic status for a damn good reason, 4.5/5

like new artist every song

Rock setentero. Varios megahits. Un 4.

Don't stop, thinking about ... Thunders, You can go your own way, You make loving fun. Venga, un 4, porque hay bastantes megahits míos de la vida.

ihana! jää ehdottomasti jatkokuunteluun, sopivan pituinen levy ja hyviä ja erityylisiä kappaleita. lempibiisi: go your own way

Eine Inkunabel der Modernen Rock-Mythologie. Hier wird zur musikalischen noch eine weitere Ebene wichtig bei der Rezeption von Autoren-Werken: das Biografische. Abgesehen von den dramatischen, kokaingepuderten Irrungen und Wirrungen unter allen Beteiligten bleibt ein Album zurück, bei dem nicht alles vollständig überzeugt, aber doch schon weit über das hinausreicht, was 1977 Standard gewesen ist. Vor allem dankbar für die Wehmut in einem Song wie „Dreams“. 3.7

The 11th album from Fleetwood Mac is a pop rock album and was an instant commercial success. It sold 10 million copies in just a month, and all of the singles charted in the top 10 hot singles. The single "Dreams" is the most popular song from the album. In 1977 and 1978, Rumours won Album of the Year, the latter being a Grammy award. This album is certified 20 times platinum which means it's certified diamond! Rumours is cited as Fleetwood Mac's magnum opus and is one of the best selling albums of all time. The most wonderful part of the music on this album are the harmonies between the three vocalists of the band. These harmonies and the backing pop rock sounds make this album beautiful and of course, a bestseller. Everyone should give this classic a listen!

8/10

Album holds up. Super good and catchy. Many hits

Po mišljenju veličine, ovo je klasik od albuma. Jeste, to je tačno. Javno priznanje below! "Ja, Luka Balić, priznajem da sam prvim slušanjem htio dati trojku ovom albumu, međutim preslušao sam drugi puta uz šetnju i promijenio sam itekako mišljenje."

A mislim, jel trebam šta govorit?

Not much to say. One of the biggest albums to be released. Not all songs are great but there isn't a lot that would become a skip on a second listen.

Sometimes I forget how many classics there are on this album. Solid from start to finish.

Solid, that is all.

Solid Songs, Songbird, Second hand News, The Chain - favs

Songbird It's not a second hand news if you listen after the first one. Well, Fleetwood Mac at your greatest? It's what they'll tell you, but it was the mid centre of their history, delivering a massive licks and riffs throughout the years, I can tell it's very impressive at least. But to achieve this goal it takes by 10 albums before their classics "Tango In The Night", "Tusk" (it's included on the 1001 list), resuming the facts there were rumours since the begging but the news arrived only at this point. So it works by giving you the notice right after hook your attention in the other side, 11 songs for the eleventh album, you can't control that their best songs are on a side, when you got The Chain.

8/10

gold dust woman the best track, followed by the chain and songbird

Dit vind ik echt een klassieker.

Goed en gevarieerd. Toch heeft het de weg naar m'n hart nooit helemaal gevonden :)

Iconic with several standout tracks

Vrolijke muziek, leuke melodietjes en een grappig stereo effect. Met deze ingrediënten zou ik verwachten dat dit album me zou grijpen. Helaas gebeurt dit niet en blijft het een beetje een standaard album met leuke (bekende) en minder leuke liedjes. Beste nummer is "Go Your Own Way" natuurlijk. ****

This is a pretty damn good album. But, hate to be that guy, I always felt that the importance of it is overhyped and it's not as jaw dropping as it gets credit for. Tusk is on par with it imo

Obviously this is excellent and a legendary album BUT it gets so much hype. So overplayed, for good reason but that does dampen my enjoyment. Giving a 4/5 to shake the place up

I think Secondhand News is a great song to open with. It's got a great beat to it. The guitar and Stevie Nicks' performances in Dreams are very good. I love the rebellious Go Your Own Way. The Chain is their best song in how it sounds and how it comes together. Overall, I think it's a pretty good album, definitely not one of my favorites, but I can turn it on and be satisfied

Classic FWM album …. Their best ever…. Big thumbs up

It’s great. I mean, it’s got The Chain. But how often am I going to listen to it?

Calm

Thankfully, Lucas already f'd this up from having a full straight of fives so I don't have to. Never listened to this in its entirety and never followed FM, but this album is truly great. Gold Dust Woman, The Chain, and Never Going Back are superb. Some of the others are just overplayed like Don't Stop and Dreams and then there are a couple that drag it down like Songbird and Oh Daddy. But on the whole, I'm super happy to have listened to this one.

All time classic, bangers after bangers.

Love it. Some songs are stupid, but the classics are amazing

Nice album.

Go Your Own Way

Suena bien

.

It's way better than I thought it would be. I guess it's the classic case where the average fan is so repulsive that it tarnishes an otherwise great band

Rightly thought of as a classic.

Couple of great anthems, good guitar solos

Great record, not heard it in its entirety before. Lovely

Just heard this for the first time recently. Great songwriting and arrangement. No questions as to why this is on the list.

The 4 famous tracks give this album a much better reputation that it deserves.

aye, this is class

Jamás he entendido el hype por Fleetwood Mac, pero tienen canciones muy padres. No creo que el álbum en su conjunto sea pa tanto como para un 5 porque si me dieron ganar de darle skips a varias, pero pues sí está chido. Favoritas: las más famosas —Dreams y The Chain— y ese final bien oscuro donde se ve escucha la brujería de la Stevie con el concepto muy dark folk, pues muy bien. Mood: cholo tiktokero tomando su juguito en patineta

Another one I used to play on cassette in my car not long after I got my drivers license. The Chain was and still is my favourite song, as was So Afraid on their prior album, so I guess that makes me a big Lindsey Buckingham fan. In listenIng to this LP now, his contribution was pretty significant, but it's the blending of the different vocalists and songwriters that make album. Gold Dust Woman and Dreams are classics, and the rest of the album is solid enough.

Good shit

Rock setentero. Varios megahits.

There’s not much for me to add here as there’s no question that this is an iconic pop/rock album. Dreams and Go your own way are probably two of the best pop tracks ever written, but IMO You make loving fun is right up there with them. The album isn’t perfect though and I would argue that it shouldn’t be ranked higher than DSOTM, Wish you were here, Ziggy Stardust or Sgt Peppers so it gets a 4 from me

I think I like their self-titled album the best, their first album, but this is a good one. The Chain might be my favorite song of theirs.

better than i thought it would be

Good stuff, of course. Impressive to know the band hated each other.

Tiene canciones chulas y está muy bien pero no me ha explotado la cabeza como el mejor álbum de la historia

Only started listening to FM in the last few years, but I love this album, surprisingly, considering my distaste for folk, this is almost like a guilty pleasure. Almost, but not quite, cos its actually good. Just some great pop songs here, especially Go your own way and The chain.

Classic rock staple. Overplayed but still extremely good. 8-9/10 1. Dreams 2. Go Your Own Way 3. Never Going Back Again

Incredible. A classic.

I enjoyed their music.

While I'm not a Fleetwood Mac fan, I can't deny that this is a good album. One million times better than Tusk or their other albums.

Cheese.

8.5

Classic. Songs that you can move to, songs that you can cry to. Songs that everyone knows. Beautiful guitar tones and voices.

Da ist sie also, die Platte, die von den Nutzern dieses Projektes die höchste Durchschnittswertung bekommen hat. Und die ich nicht kenne. Bin gespannt. Ach, dieses 'Don‘t Stop‘ ist von denen? Ach, dieses 'Go Your Own Way' ist von denen? Ich Ignorant... Bei 'Never Going Back Again' wusste ich sofort, dass ich den heute noch 20 mal hören würde. Die Platte ist durchwachsen, hat aber mit den genannten ein paar Knüller-Songs und ein paar gute mehr.

In the immortal words of The Garbage Bin... “wild stuff. wonder if they made it.” Bajaj!

Has a bunch of hits and some filler.

Det var lite svårt. nära en trea men vissa låtar fick över mig till en fyra.

It’s a classic for a reason

Classic.

Some classics in there, enjoyed listening

Slightly overrated but the singles are huge

Todella hyvän tuulen levy. Pakko tykätä!

Classsssic

Colin likes Fleetwood Mac

1977. Key Songs: Dreams, Never Going Back Again, Go Your Own Way, I Don't Want to Know

great vibe here, good album, there are some flow things that I can't call it a five star

War gut diese, so 3,5

Second hand news and go your own way is good. Its a 3 star album for me

One of the best

I think this record is this popular because it refuses to take a stance. It's perfectly mediocre in everything it attempts.

Incredibly well-made album. But also just quite boring and lifeless to me.

this was alright. I've heard a lot of the songs on here before. The bass line on the chain was pretty bad ass. 3 stars.

Fine

"Dreams" is an all-timer. As someone who is the most casual Fleetwood Mac fan of all-time, the smooth, dreamy and breezy sound of that song is what I like most about the band. Other than that... I can appreciate the lore behind the album: the anger, the jealousy, the betrayal. The songs are pleasant, but even with the lore and the talent, the music does almost nothing for me.

i mean yeah i guess that was good

Ok til Gubberock å være.

p good! dont understand the insane love

I’ll get roasted here, but I have to stay true to myself. I’m barely younger than this album. My parents owned it. So I’ve heard it a lot. My hot take is… it’s ok. Crazy to see it rated as like the top ever when there are soooo many more deserving. Is it the backstory? Because the music is fine, but vanilla.

Day 1: Is a fun album

Bom disco, mas mais incensado do que merece.

So this is what it is all about? Nah, come on. Couple of good songs and that's it. I was looking forward so much to hearing one of the supposed best albums of all time and it came out to be... this?

the real best divorce album is shoot out the lights by richard and linda thompson but this still rules da chain babey

6/10 This is probably a hot take but aside from some of the hits, I don't really care much for this

Gonna go listen to the new Napalm Death and Melvins collab album now :)

Хайповатая тема

The 2 hits in the album are truly amazing and considered masterpieces of their eras as well as songs that have stood the test of time. The rest is quite forgettable, no songs truly stood out. Album is a 5.5, outside of the chain and dreams there isn't many memorable songs

Very consistent album with good songs all the way through. But for me it lacks any flair which makes it a more boring listen. I believe this is a pretty overrated album and none of the songs are on the next level really. Although overall it was enjoyable to an extent and song for song wasnt a bad album.

is great, but for me only 3 songs truly stood up... this is a selfish review, nothing to do with the band's quality and amazing repertoire.

i mean it's good. certainly a fair choice for the top album on this site. though it feels a bit safe for that honor. it's the one that's objectionable to the fewest people, not the one with the most to give. not all hits, but i do quite like The Chain and Go Your Own Way. deserves to be one of the 1001? yes

Yeah it's cheesy (and it's no Tusk) but this is a fun listen

It’s not cool at all I know but I don’t mind this

Adding this to the list of "albums I expected to hate but actually quite enjoyed". I mean, it's not the most challenging listen but it breezes along, doesn't outstay its welcome and has a fair ratio of enjoyable/memorable songs. Would be a 4 but for Don't Stop, which is a stinker. So it's a 3 from me.

I've never been a fan of Fleetwood Mac. I like some of their songs, but this album confirms my opinion. They have a few nice songs and the rest is not so special.

A good album, but not my type of music.

This one has some great songs and some really weak songs. It's a good listen but I believe the lore is why people are obsessed. Slap Silver Springs and a Planets of the Universe demo on this puppy and the rating goes up a whole star.

this is a fine enough album but has never really been my thing. the chain is good but don't stop is so bad that it cancels out.

Halfway between Simon&Garfunkel and ABBA with even more pop? Not bad but nothing special.

Never really listened to the Mac ( as they are not known ) before . Nice , mellow rock.

It's good. Far on the "pop" side of pop rock. "The Chain" is a really great song. Most of the other songs however just pass by without leaving a mark with me. Perhaps it's too polished, too clean for me. 3/5 - good

Alright I guess

It’s got some good tunes. It also has some …. Not so good tunes. None of their later stuff can come close to the old bluesy Fleetwood.

Went into this album ready for my opinion of music to be shifted. Maybe that expectation was too high. It's fine, I'm not sure what's so special about this album though... It doesn't sound particularly interesting... Go your own way is pretty good, as is the chain. Very high 3

It isn't BAD. It just isn't an album I currently am in the mood to listen to and I don't see myself turning to it often.

Criminally over-rated. Thank God this one is in the rear view mirror.

Rumours es considerado uno de los grandes álbumes de la historia; no para mí. Que no se malinterprete; no es malo, y siento la intención de auténticamente hacer música; mas el resultado es dispar. La segunda mitad del álbum vale la pena merced a The Chains, que es la canción del álbum; no hay otra que este ni cerca de alcanzarla. Admito, sin embargo, que tiene una de las portadas más bellas que he visto. De Dreams me gustó el acorde final; y el uso de la batería es, en general, agradable.

Rumours' greatest strength is its ability to captivate the listener with relatively subdued acoustic guitar and drum compositions. Outside of that though, the album's not particularly special. "The Chain" is a great track, "Oh Daddy" and Gold Dust Woman" are good, and the rest are decent or just okay.

I preferred the previous and next albums to this one. But give it three for ‘Rhiannon’.

I thought this was supposed to be the LeBron of albums. Instead it’s the guy who was a baller in high school but never made it off the bench in college. Extremely overrated.

kuolinvuoteellani pistäkää soimaan chain

lots of hits on this, non hits are alright

Amazing. Really great album.

some if it was good iguess

Pensé que me iba a gustar más pero no pasó. NO te digo que está mal pero es un 3/3.5 con mucha fuerza. Sí, destaca el sonido de la época pero parece que no puede salir del molde.

classic but i wasn't in love with it

Disco ameno dinámico divertido

I give ts a 7/10, that’s me being generous

I LOVED dreams and the chain but the rest were pretty good

It's... good. (7/1001) That's all i got to say honestly, once i saw the vast amount of streams some songs had i had big expectations... but they weren't met all too well. It's got some good songs here and there, but this one's not for me. I get if someone would put this album while doing their morning routine but i would never see myself listening to this Only standouts: Go Your Own Way, Songbird, The Chain. The rest of the album with no offense sounds like it would belong in a Happy Madison movie. though "The Chain" was actually REALLY good, but it was the only song i actually really liked...

It's good, but I'm not buying that it's great.

A classic to relax

I am not going to shit on this. It is what it is. A cultural phenomenon that doesn’t feel like it could happen today. A perfectly formed style of acceptable blandness. That is really, really hard to do. To hit that many sweet spots to sell so universally well. I just don’t want to listen to it.

bien, si me pareció ahí un roce aburrido pero tiene sus temas muy buenos

way before my time and as a result I can only admire the artistry rather than have any genuine connection to it

Contenu un peu daté, qui apparaît maintenant sans grande originalité. Quelques références comme Dreams, songbird, The Chain, Oh Daddy.

It was good. Safe, nothing wrong with it. Not the masterpiece everyone says it is.

Not the biggest Fleetwood fan, this album is really good tho and the story behind the production is even better

It's a good album, but a bit... inoffensive? Christine McVie's songwriting is my favorite. Very heartfelt. Everyone mentions the turbulent context of this album's production, but I hear none of it in the actual music. Highlights: Songbird, The Chain, Go Your Own Way, Your Make Loving Fun, Gold Dust Woman

I refuse to listen to this album!

I know this is a blasphemy but I’m not a huge Fleetwood Mac Fan. I don’t know who Oeter Green is or was other than he’s associated with this band. I know this um is the big album but I’ve never felt compelled to listen to it. Opening track “Second hand news” is a great track. I never knew this was Fleetwood Mac. Sometimes I think albums and band like this are a so revered, but radio only plays the singles and I grew up when you could only buy this album or that album and you chose carefully so you didn’t regret it. Ugh. Second track “Dreams” I’m already bored. Goodness this album is going to be a roller coaster ride. This track “Never Going Back Again” is a fantastic song that I again didn’t know was Fleetwood Mac. Track 4 “Don’t Stop”. The theme seems to be if I never knew it was Fleetwood Mac, I like the song. 🤣 Track 5 “Go your own way” is the exception. I knew it was Fleetwood Mac and still like it. 😂🤣 Song Bird was good. The Chain is good at points. Track 8 does nothing for me. So the rest of this album is boring. Next is gold dust woman and I know I don’t like that already.

I don't really have a lot of say on this one. It's a good album, but I'm not sure if it hits for me. It may need another listen down the road for it to truly sink in. Favorite Track: The Chain

thx

So many hits all on one album. Kinda hard not to rate it high. If I’m going to be critical: The songs I didn’t know really did nothing for me. The hits themselves, are mid at best when it comes to hits.

Ήταν λίγο hit or miss αυτό το αλμπουμ. Μερικά κομμάτια μου φάνηκαν βαρετά, ωστόσο άλλα είχαν μια πολύ επική χροιά ίσως λόγω της 'βαριάς' τους σύνθεσης. (έντονο μπάσο, αργοί ρυθμοί και χαμηλές συχνότητες) The Chain

I dont think this album is as amazing as the rest of the world seems to. There are good songs, maybe I have just heard some of them too many times. Enjoy the chain and gold dust woman

7/10, son pref = gold dust woman

Me gustó, aunque tiene algunas canciones country que no son para mi. Le doy un 6/10. Solo me quedé con 4 canciones que me gustaron.

As far as fleetwood mac albums go I find this one to leave a lot to be desired its good when its good but its meh when its meh cuts like “oh daddy” and “dont stop” are just boring to me. Not the best showing of fleetwood macs musical prowise would have much prefered their self title or anything from before the buckingham/nicks era.

P good kinda fun

I thought the album was alright it wasn't anything revolutionary. lyricism: 3 General enjoyment: 3 cohesion (between songs): 4 production: 4 overall: 3.5

This is a good album, even a very good album at times, but a lot of it is very safe paint-by-numbers pop. It's not challenging and it wasn't particularly innovative, both of which I think should be imperative for the highest rated album on this site. Finally, the last two tracks are significantly worse than the rest of the record, so the album loses half a star. 3.0/5.0: Good

Good stuff. I think my enjoyment of this would go up by like 20% if I listened to it a few more times and read up on all the interpersonal drama.

Koslig dette, kommer neppe til å høre igjen. Go Your Own Way er en favoritt. (Hørte også igjennom feil album først - S/T - som også var koselig)

Loved Silver Springs, The Chain and Oh Daddy

Great album. Love the band in all it's complexities.

It does have some great songs but really its massively overrated on here.

Ugh. Not a fan of this band, but duty calls. Song 1, I know, but don't care for. 2 & 3 were the same. As was 5. Respect for a band I don't like having this many recognizable songs on one album. 6 was a miss, then 7 another known, dull song. 8 was known, but still not my vibe. Two more misses near the end. I don't like it, but it's definitely good for this list.

3.4

jaja

Second Hand News 3.8 Dreams 4.0 Never Going Back Again 3.8 Don't Stop 3.6 Go Your Own Way 3.7 Songbird 3.4 --- The Chain 4.1 You Make Loving Fun 4.0 I Don't Want to Know 3.6 Oh Daddy 3.5 Gold Dust Woman 3.5 It's just good radio-friendly 70s pop rock , nothing more , nothing less. Kind of overrated in this site though

Gut

The Chain is a 5. Rest of album is 3 for me.

some really good songs on this album and some really boring

Like an unseasoned steak - obviously good though a little boring

The Chain and Dreams are the only good songs on this album, and the funny thing is that both are fucking amazing

wish i was a white american so i could fully enjoy this album

det känns liksom lite högstadieseriöst.. och vad heter han, han har så svag röst. stör mig. men ändå! då och då dras jag med! återigen hade det blivit bättre om bruden sjungit allt

Har alltid gillat den varma och klara produktionen. Parat med enkla, tydliga refränger blir det ju grym radiorock. För kanske tio år sedan var alla så sjukt tända på F. Mac att det bara var att acceptera att det måste ju vara fantastiskt bra. Men nu slås jag av att listans högst betygsatta album™ till stor del består utav fillers? Second hand news, Don't stop, Make loving fun, Oh daddy. Eller är alla låtar utom Dreams 2,5-3 plus? En vis brud sa en gång att snubbarna trodde för mycket om sin röst förr i tiden. Namnet till trots Lindsey! Fleetwood och John Mcvie i rytmsektionen är riktigt stabila rätt igenom.

I like this album, full of classics like go your own way, I noticed lots of familiar melodies, a lot of artists must be inspired by this band.

I’ve never even heard of Fleetwood Mac until today yet i knew at least 1 song already. Based on reviews i just assumed this album was being glazed but hey it’s not bad. Don’t usually like music like this but even on the tracks i felt were kinda boring, they weren’t bad they were still listenable and i could appreciate the muscisianship. It was good tracks and then some amazing tracks. Amazing tracks meaning ‘The Chain’ ‘Dreams’ ‘Go Your Own Way’ which are (again i only got this information from the reviews) the hit’s that are already recognized from this album and i see why. I can’t say i don’t see why some people think this is the best album oat, but i also can’t say i don’t see why some think it’s overated, meaning: it’s interchangably a good and great album for me

album znany, ale niesluchany, wiec ciekawe doswiadczonko, spodziewalem sie czegos troche innego, bo zamiast rokowosci i eksperymentalnosci ktore znalem z chaina, o wiele wiecej bylo popowego rokowania, rumours z 1977 to jedenasty krazek w dyskografii fleetwoodowych macow, a z pewnoscia ich najbardziej popularny albumik, moze tez najbardziej przystepny, bo to chyba najbardziej popowe oblicze tego skladu, ale na pewno najbardziej rumorzasta plyta jak juz sam tytul wskazuje, bo okolicznosci jej powstania sa owiane taka legenda, ze nawet nie znajac muzycznie plyty to kojarzylem dramy zwiane z jej narodzinami w kokainowych bolach i dziwnych relacjach milosno seksualnych dotyczacych czlonkow skladu, bo ciezko o brak dram jak jest 3 chlopow i 2 baby i nieograniczona ilosc twardych narokotykow i dodatkowych ludzi do ukladanki milosnej, co tez jest motywem przewodnim calej plyty, bo ciekawa rzecza, ze az trojka liryczna sie tutaj udziela i kazdy pisze sam dla siebie, w sensie, ze pozniej kawalek jest spiewany przez teksciarza, a byl to podzial pomiedzy panem buckinghamem oraz paniami steavie i christine, jedyna piosenka ktora ficzuruje wszystkich czlonkow bandy byl juz wspomniany the chain, ktory jest dla mnie najlepszym momentem plyty, bo najbardziej odchodzi o popowosci na rzecz eksperymentow, wiec z dzisiejszego odsluchu dowiedzialem sie, ze nie wszystko tak mi sie podoba jak the chain oraz o tym, ze niektore kawalki przezywaja swoje drugie zycie w smiesznych rolkach, chodzi mi glownie o dreamsy i silver springs, ktore chodzily mi po uszach juz dawno, a nie moglem wiedziec skad, wiec prawie 45 minutowa plyta i 12 trakow na ktorych jest roznorodnosc skupiona wokol motywu przewodniego, da sie zrozumiec skad taka popularnosc tej plyty, ale strasznie nie pasuja mi wokale, zwlaszcza te od pani christine, bo instrumentalnie jest rowno, ale lirycznie/woklanie czuc roznice w zaleznosci od tworcy/spiewaka, na plejke dorzuce jeszcze dreams, bo chain juz sie na niej znajduje

I’d deliberately ignored this for decades. I was keen to listen when it came up on my list. The song exploder with Lindsey Buckingham discussing go your own way was fantastic. And…. That and The Chain are the only high points for me. The rest was just middle of the road meh…

3/5

some great songs, but also lots of filler

ooooo. very campy! love this vibe. Makes me think of summer. Of the woods. Of hot evenings wandering the alleyways of my city. Dirty sneakers. Headphones blasting music. Smiling at passerbies.... make falling in love with a pretty stranger, just for a single song.

Meh

Не мое но одна песня зашла а так альбом где то на 7/10

In my opinion, there’s no way Fleetwood Mac’s “Rumors” is the number one album as this site suggests, probably more a sign of the major demographics reviewing albums here. This might not crack my top 50 nor even my 4 star wall. I grew up with a lot of music people, and this was never talked about or that highly regarded aside for being a decent, smooth, 70s pop rock album with a lot of hits…but a little boring and generic, sometimes even the butt of a joke. Nothing ever wowed me here except for maybe “The Chain”. What I will say, though, is this album has some glossy production, especially for 1977…and like I said, hits galore.

Two star album, one extra for the chain

1. Альбом приятно слушается, почти на одном дыхании. 8/10 2. Голоса у обоих вокалистов красочные и интересные. 8/10 3. Стиль хорош, четко прослеживается атмосфера тех годов и мелодичность музыки семидесятых 7/10 4. Есть скучные песни, но в целом инструменты очень приятные уху. 6/10 5. Желания переслушать полностью отсутствует 1/10 Итого: 30 баллов

If ABBA ripped into the class As, The Visitors would be Rumours. Quite honestly, I don’t understand the fuss about this album. The lyrics are occasionally snarky, but sonically it’s cohesive and safe. It’s all bark and no bite.

Good album! It's probably a bias since I've heard them a lot more, but I definitely like the radio songs more than the others.

Possibly a bit overrated but still a good album full of hits

I have listened to this album before, but I've always thought that its really overrated and i still do. I just don't see whats so special about it, I think Gold Dust Woman and The Chain are phenomenal songs but they're the only ones worthy of the praise this album gets. You Don't Wanna Know and some others are also good just not the all-time great that it's coveted as. Its not a bad album by any means though

просто и коротко: не мое

There are a few absolutely stand-out tracks on this album, and they probably warrant inclusion on this list for them alone. As a whole the album is fine, but I could take or leave most of the tracks.

Love it

está the chain q es de los mejores temas de la historia oh daddy y gold dust woman son god el resto no es tan mi estilo portada d album iconic aprobado

goeie classic bangers maar niet wow

I’m not a fan of 70

This is just a good album for me. I really like Chains. Beyond that, everything else is fine. Soft rock is not really my thing.

this is definitely an album

It's a cool album,I really liked it,I think I'm starting to like this kind of music,it had sprr of a country vibe

En general es un album que me ha aburrido pero seguramente es porque es el tipico album que escucharía mi padre. Soy bastante poser, las dos canciones que más me han gustado han sido Dreams y The Chain, que son las mas conocidad/ Tiktokeadas. En general guay.

It's the quintessential easy-listening album :\

My little sister claimed this band was my “identity music.” I didn’t understand then, and I still don’t now. I’ve asked her why and she said she can’t remember what the root of the joke even was. So that’s all I think about when I hear this band and album. It’s not a bad album, but I would t describe it as anything approximating my identity. Really like a 2.5.

i liked the album, lots of songs and snippets that i’ve heard on tiktok. for sure, an amazing classic album.

eu gosto mas sinto que a maioria das músicas são skips

Gotta say I wasn’t impressed by this one. The stature that this album has is actually a bit baffling. Tracks added to playlist: Don’t Stop You Make Loving Fun

Bon, on va mettre les pieds dans le plat tout de suite. Si vous suivez ce carnet de bord depuis un moment, vous savez que j’ai une relation compliquée avec ce dinosaure qu'est Fleetwood Mac. Vous vous souvenez de la chronique de "Tusk" ? Cette espèce de double album boursouflé, prétentieux et bordélique que je nous ai infligé il y a quelque temps ? J’avais sorti la sulfateuse et collé un violent 1 sur 5, parce que faut pas déconner, la vie est trop courte pour écouter des millionnaires s'ennuyer en studio. Alors, quand le générateur aléatoire du projet "1001 Albums" m’a recraché "Rumours", j’ai eu un mouvement de recul. J’ai failli aller me passer "Streetcleaner" de Godflesh à fond les ballons pour me purifier les oreilles avant même de commencer. Mais bon, comme la règle c’est la règle, on respire un grand coup, on range ses préjugés de vieux disquaire aigri adepte de Post-Punk et de Neofolk, et on retourne en 1977. Et là, surprise... ou plutôt, confirmation d’un truc que je savais déjà mais que mon snobisme musical m'empêchait d'admettre totalement : on est très, très loin de la purge qu'était "Tusk". Pour comprendre "Rumours", il faut comprendre le contexte. On est en 1977, et pendant que les Ramones et les Sex Pistols sont en train d'essayer de raser l'industrie musicale à coups d'épingles à nourrice et de trois accords joués à la truelle, Fleetwood Mac, eux, sont dans une bulle. Une bulle tapissée de velours, remplie de montagnes de cocaïne de première qualité et d'un mélodrame sexuel digne des "Feux de l'Amour". C'est simple, c'est le bordel intégral car les couples du groupe explosent en vol. John et Christine McVie ne se parlent plus que pour s'insulter musicalement. Lindsey Buckingham et Stevie Nicks sont en train de vivre la rupture la plus toxique de l'histoire de la Californie. Et Mick Fleetwood, au milieu de tout ça, découvre que sa femme le trompe avec son meilleur pote. Normalement, un groupe dans cet état, ça splitte, ou ça sort un album de Noise insupportable où tout le monde hurle sa haine. Mais non car ces gens-là sont des professionnels du soft rock. Ils ont pris toute cette haine, tout ce ressentiment, toute cette tristesse, et ils l'ont polie jusqu'à ce que ça brille comme un capot de Cadillac au soleil. Ils ont transformé leur thérapie de couple ratée en machine à cash. Musicalement, qu'est-ce que ça donne ? Eh bien, force est de constater que c'est efficace. Redoutablement efficace. Là où "Tusk" partait dans tous les sens comme un canard sans tête, "Rumours" est un missile guidé par laser. C'est de la pop californienne calibrée au millimètre. On ne va pas se mentir, la production est tellement propre qu'on pourrait manger dessus. C'est lisse, ça glisse tout seul et pour un mec comme moi qui a passé les années 90 à écouter Sonic Youth et à chercher la dissonance, ça fait presque mal tellement c'est parfait. Mais il y a un savoir-faire indéniable. Prenez "The Chain", même moi, avec mon t-shirt Joy Division et mon air désabusé, je suis obligé de taper du pied quand la basse arrive à la fin. Ou "Go Your Own Way", c'est quand même l'ultime chanson de "va te faire foutre" déguisée en tube radio joyeux. Buckingham qui balance ses horreurs à Nicks pendant qu'elle est obligée de faire les chœurs derrière, c'est d'une perversité absolument délicieuse. C'est peut-être le seul moment vraiment "punk" de l'album : l'honnêteté brutale des paroles masquée par une mélodie hyper catchy. Et puis il y a "Dreams", Stevie Nicks, sa voix voilée, cette ambiance vaporeuse... C'est le genre de morceau que je détestais entendre tourner en boucle à la radio quand je bossais chez le disquaire, parce que ça attirait une clientèle qui demandait "vous avez le CD avec la chanson de la pub ?". Mais avec le recul, et peut-être la sagesse (ou la fatigue) de l'âge, je dois admettre que ça fonctionne. Car c'est une mécanique pop implacable. Et c'est là tout le paradoxe de cet album pour un amateur de musiques "sombres" et "exigeantes". "Rumours", c'est l'ennemi juré sur le papier, c'est le triomphe du mainstream, l'album que vos parents mettaient dans la voiture pour aller en vacances, le disque qui a squatté les charts pendant des siècles en empêchant des groupes bien plus intéressants d'émerger. C'est la musique de l'establishment, c'est le son de l'argent, mais c'est aussi un album qui ne triche pas sur sa marchandise. Contrairement à "Tusk" qui essayait de se donner des airs expérimentaux ridicules, "Rumours" assume totalement son statut de blockbuster. C'est fait pour passer à la radio, c'est fait pour être chanté sous la douche, c'est fait pour vendre des millions de copies. Et dans ce registre précis, c'est difficile de faire mieux. J'ai passé des années à vendre des disques de Current 93 à trois pelés et un tondu dans l'arrière-boutique, tout en regardant les piles de Fleetwood Mac partir comme des petits pains en caisse. À l'époque, je jugeais et je me disais "Mon dieu, les gens n'ont aucun goût, ils veulent juste de la soupe". Aujourd'hui ? Bon, je préfère toujours écouter Nick Cave me raconter des histoires de meurtres sordides, mais je reconnais que quand "Don't Stop" passe, je ne change pas forcément de station. C'est grave docteur ? Alors, qu'est-ce qu'on en fait de ce "Rumours" ? Bon, on ne va pas se mettre à genoux non plus car ça reste de la pop-rock californienne très (trop) produite, parfois un peu niaise ("Songbird", au secours), et ça manque cruellement de distorsion et de désespoir existentiel pour figurer dans mon panthéon personnel. Ça sent le patchouli de luxe et les intérieurs en cuir beige. Mais on est obligé de saluer la performance, car transformer un tel chaos personnel en une collection de tubes aussi carrée, c'est un tour de force. C'est un album qui a défini une époque, un son, et qui a servi de bande-son à des millions de divorces depuis 1977. C'est un bon album de pop rock, ni plus, ni moins. Ça ne va pas changer votre vision du monde, mais ça fait le job. Et comparé à l'accident industriel qu'était "Tusk", c'est quasiment un chef-d'œuvre de cohérence. Donc, je range ma haine, je garde mon cynisme pour la prochaine bouse que Robert Dimery va me forcer à écouter, et je donne un score honnête pour un travail honnête. Pour les tubes qui restent en tête même quand on essaie de les chasser à coup de larsen, et pour la qualité d'écriture pop indéniable. Note : 3/5 À écouter quand : Vous avez de la route à faire sous le soleil, que vous ne voulez pas trop réfléchir, et que vous avez envie de chanter des horreurs à votre ex sur un air majeur.

Maybe I’m not white enough to get it

Overrated

6/10

some boring some cute i love fleetwood mac

6/10 Dreams er GOATED Godt album og endnu bedre artist, men nok ikke helt min smag

Good stuff couple peak songs

great, well known songs. an alltime classic.

dis nigga’s legendary??

This is widely considered one of the greatest records ever released. While lighter, poppier rock isn't normally my thing, I do recognize how great this record is. It spurned a lot of hits for a reason; because it's a really good record that people love.

This is an album that is extremely hard to review if you were around when it was released. It is a record that has been so over-played in the last few decades that it's hard to be objective. Several of the songs are worn out to many listeners. Many people will rank it on memories of what they were doing in 1977 when the hits were played on the radio, regardless of the album's merits as a whole. Some will rate based on how much the love Stevie Nicks. I was around when this came out and have several of these perspectives. I consider this record to be very important to pop culture. A soundtrack of sorts to millions of lives. That said, it is a very good album. Not a great one, based on musicality and innovation.

Carino dai

Funny this one, my sister had it back in the 70s, far too tame for me, over the years though it grew on me, I do love “Dreams”, listened last night to the whole album

Wanted to enjoy it more

So many great songs. Lindsey Buckingham’s guitar and Stevie Nicks vocals are sooo good. Probably as close to a perfect album as you can get. But I’ve never really liked it that much.

I feel like out of all the records I have listened to this is the one with the most mystification that surrounds it. Not only is it known as one of the best albums of all time its making is seen as one of the most fantastical tales in rock history. I and can acknowledge that all these things are for good reason but I also have to say that all of this may have made the album seem a little underwhelming in my eyes. It is still a good record but I find songs like Songbird and I Don't want to know just some of the uninteresting spots on this record, but there is so much genius in this LP that is hard to say its anything less than good 70's rock music but for me thats all it is Fav tracks: Dreams, The Chain, You make loving fun, and Gold dust woman

Ikkje så dumt

The most popular album on here. I know the singles, that's it. Starts bad. First 2 Buckingham tracks are misses for me. Although Go Your Own Way is the first song to get me tapping along. The Chain rocks for sure but the rest of side 2 is meh. Overall, 3 great tracks does not make the best album ever. 3.5 rounded down Heard before? Some Owned: Yes: 29/108 (26%) Will I get? No

Rumours” (1977) is polished, hooky soft rock built on sharp songwriting and vocal harmonies—far less noisy or dated than many ’60s/’70s classics, and easily one of the few “old” albums I can see myself genuinely enjoying, even if I’ll mostly replay the standout tracks

The good songs suffer from being too overplayed. It was an enjoyable listen, but I didn't feel like this was a true classic on first listen

I've never listened to Fleetwood Mac before. The album is very melodic, pleasant to listen to. A bit too country to my taste. Sometimes it reminded me of The Beatles, sometimes of Sabrina Carpenter. I would listen to this album while driving a car, but I don't think that I'll reach for it again.

Franchement ça s'écoute bien mais la musique à 2 milliards d'écoutes je ne l'avais jamais entendu de ma vie c'est terrible

A strong 3

This reminds me of my mom. I have heard this album so many times it’s become background music. She was a huge Stevie Nicks fan but I have always preferred Christine Perfect. Dreams, The Chain, and Gold Dust Woman are the standouts. Also Stevie Nicks shot cocaine into her butthole. Allegedly.

its almost like it was a greatest hits record

3 This is one of those albums that you knew was going to show up on this list sooner or later, and there are certainly no arguments from me on its inclusion… but at the same time, I’d be lying if I said that it’s a personal favorite of my own. Don’t get me wrong, having four megahits the size of these contained all on one release is an incredibly impressive feat, but I just can’t say they’re songs that I love personally - with the exception, of course, being Go Your Own Way. I know this whole album is about the clusterf**** going on behind the scenes surrounding the band members’ romantic relationships with each other, but Go Your Own Way has always been the one track that’s really spoken to me about relationships. Like, if you’ve never shed a tear while listening to the song after having your heart broken, have you really lived? For me, it’s undoubtedly one of the two best songs by the group, the other being Landslide (not on this album, unfortunately). But as for Dreams, Don’t Stop, and The Chain… I think they’re fine songs, and certainly not flawed in any way, but they’re also not something I would go out of my way to listen to. And if I’m being petty, the “thunder only happens when it's raining” lyric on Dreams has always kind of bugged me. Like, I know artistic license and yada yada, but it’s not a true statement in the slightest. As for the rest of this album… blah. Once again, there’s nothing bad to be found, but it did make me question if the four megahits are doing all the heavy lifting regarding the acclaim surrounding this album. I felt nothing about most, though I did raise an eyebrow at Oh Daddy, and You Make Loving Fun reminded me a bit of Trampled Under Foot - a song I would consider like C-tier Led Zeppelin, so do with that what you will. Through and through, this album is fine, and I have no real complaints. I do think you would have to be out of your gourd to say it’s objectionably bad, but it’s just not a piece of art that speaks strongly to me for the most part. Go Your Own Way is doing some heavy lifting on my 3 rating here.

Amazing

Like a bit of Fleetwood.

3,5

This was the first time I ever listened to this album. I never had the urge to check it out before. It's very good, but something keeps me from really liking it. I don't know what. You can almost SMELL the cocaine on this one, can't you?

The songs I know are great, the album tracks I didn't are... not as good.

when its good its good, but for a classic album thats less than 40 mins theres a lot of filler lol Fav song: I Don't Want to Know

I think its just me. It's almost definitely just me. But Rumours doesn't do much for me. I appreciate it, it's good, but I can't feel anything for it. I prefer Fleetwood Mac as a blues band with Peter Green. Give me The Green Manalishi over this, any day.

Catchy, but not overly exciting for me. Prefer other albums in their discography

funky. Liked.

Solid album, no complaints here.

I think this album is far and away the one I have listening to the most solely for the purpose of trying to experience the praise everyone sings. I must have listened to Rumours straight through half a dozen times to try and fall in love with every track here, and I'm sorry to say it still hasn't happened with this listen. It does suck because I want to love every track on here as much as I love Dreams, The Chain, and sort of Gold Dust Woman (just like everyone does). But the rest of the album just doesn't click for me. The songs aren't bad at all, nothing here is bad; I just wouldn't ever go out of my way to willingly listen to the remaining nine songs here.

This album is like the time you dated that crazy bird despite all the warnings people have. When it was good, boy was it good. But when it was bad, it was bad. Not much consistency and you never knew what was next. You'd think you were done and over it, but then the next bang(er) would have you wanting more and suddenly you'd be thinking you could listen to this album for the rest of your life and be happy. Next thing you know you have 3 kids, a mortgage and a job you don't really enjoy at the BluRay factory. You come home from work tired one day and forget to wipe up the milk you spilt while making your regular 5.30 pm cup of tea, and your wife looses it. You realise you should have listened to everyone all along. Especially Dave "2 step" Taylor, your oldest friend, who had been saying all along you'd been blinded by the hits. But know you don't know what to do. You blew your life savings investing in your crazy wides homeopathy buisness. That promotion you applied for at the BluRay is looking unlikely due to the rise of streaming services. Divorce will be expensive and the recent mortgage rate rise was the last thing you needed. Some days you even look at your 3 kids and all you can see are the traits of your wife that your come to despise. You wonder what kind of man can fall out of love with his own children. Any way where was I. Some good, some bad. 3 stars.

The music you would hear while trying on some jeans for your mom at a shopping center. Pretty mid

Obviously less foundational for me than for others

The only thing that prevents me from enjoying this album as it should is the fact that I heard this record every single weekend front to back my entire childhood. It's great, sure, but I'm sick to death of it. Is that fair? I don't care, life ain't fair buddy whatareyagonnado I'm sure they'll be okay

Great musical ability but not my cup of tea

Pura música de los 70,s, no está mal, pero no es mi gusto músical.

Overrated

Sympa

The singles are amazing, but the rest is just ok. Glad I have the full album to listen to, but not sure I'll revisit this one.

I guess the reason this one is so highly rated is that there is nothing much to hate about it. It is inoffensive and full of songs everyone knows. However, to me it is very bland. At times the songwriting, music and vocals are good but they never kick on, never explode with energy, never veer from the middle lane. Go Your Own Way and The Chain were the highlights.

Big disappointment (given it’s high 1001 rating), it’s just all a bit hackneyed and plodding isn’t it. The harmonies seem straight out of the CSN playbook, and then most of it feels like middle of the road blues Clapton rock mixed with some Fairport’y style early 70s folk stylings. Not feeling much originality. Other than The Chain, there’s not anything to get the pulse racing. Think I liked the last minute or so of the album best as, a) it was a bit different mood wise and nice guitar work, and b) it was coming to an end and I could put something better on.

Easy listening with good vibes, it’s not only « dreams » it’s all about that atmosphere and ambiance in their music

One of the highest-rated albums on the list and, on paper, an anormous and influential success. Yet I’m totally missing the whole Fleetwood Mac hype (kind of like with the Eagles or Greatful dead). That said, Rumours is much better to me than their previous album we tackled, thanks to the presence of a few classic rock staples. It goes down easy enough, with emotion and some solid melodies.

It’s ok

não sei se tenho que ouvir mais vezes para gostar do album como um todo, mas tenho a impressão que a primeira metade do album é muito mais forte que a segunda.... uma pena que não consegui entender esse como as pessoas entendem

Fleetwood Mac Take Two. Although it proved to be a mega hit of an album, to me it was a weak and middle of the road kinda follow up from the original band with classics such as Oh Well and Albatross. Not afraid to let their music speak for itself. So I probably resented the addition of not one but 2 vocalists. I bought the cassette tape of Rumours in Singapore in 1979 before parallel imports became a thing. I don't mind it though and even like some songs (the Chain).

3.75

Like most of Fleetwood Mac this is a fine listen but works best as background music.

Dreams and The Chain are definitely my favorite songs from the album. I really like the instrumentals of this album and it all sounds beautifully cohesive, but I’d only listen to about half of these songs again. Still hard to give it anything below a low 7/10.

known album

Boomers don't want you to know it is middling at best.

good

This is obviously an important album, good tracks but I just don’t like Fleetwood Mac that much

Fleetwood Mac are alright, not a massive fan but this has some good hits on it

Some enjoyable tracks such as Dreams. The other tracks didn't really stand out to me. It was good to hear this album as I can hear the influence in other albums later on.

i like looking at the overall stats on this site so i know that this album is in the top 10 highest rated. and i don’t get it at all. there are a couple good songs. Dreams and The Chain stand out. but the rest of them are pretty forgettable in my opinion. Go Your Own Way obviously isn’t forgettable but i just don’t particularly care for it. i’m not a huge Fleetwood Mac hater but i certainly don’t understand what most people feel when they hear this stuff. just very bland overall.

while acknowledging this album is damn near perfect - impeccable production, quintessential 70s beachwood canyon vibes… I just don’t like Fleetwood Mac songs. the chain and dreams are the tunes that do it for me.

Banger, but too overplayed

Never got the fascination with this one.

My favorite thing about this album was the scene in Flight of the Conchords: Murray: When you're in a band, you don't get with your bandmate's girlfriend - past or present. Jemaine: Yes, well thanks for that. Murray: You get a love triangle - you know? Fleetwood Mac situation. Murray: Well there there was four of them, so more of a love square. But you know, no one gets on. Jemaine: Okay, I see. Murray: Mind you, they did make some of their best music back then. Bret: Rumours. Murray: No, that's all true.

At least it’s better than Tusk.

Wild how many hits are on this one. I'm a sucker for the tracks with harmonized vocals. Came away liking the lesser known tracks. I get the hype but don't expect to return to it.

Хорошо записано

Some great tracks. Cohesive, but too many skips for me to give a higher score.

It was pretty good, nothing grabbed me hella though. I also didn't pay attention the most so don't listen to me.

This album feels like there are too many filler songs, for the most part I do like it and it has many classic songs I do like a lot. I love Stevie Nicks' voice.

my goal in life is to be perceived as whimsical and ethereal as stevie nicks 3,5/5 🌬️

I have been familiar with this album for most of my life and never listened to it in its entirety. I enjoyed it.

Incredibly overrated. The Chain was fantastic and some others were decent, but also a few dull tracks.

86/1089 - The drummer in this band stole my Dad's socks at the gym. Anyways on to the review: It's okay. Some good songwriting here and there but some very homogeneous sounds throughout.

Take one part personal drama. Add a boatload of cocaine. Multiply that with huge egos and you get one of the most overrated albums in music history. It doesn't mean it's bad. It's fine. There are good songs on here. But to call it one of the greatest albums ever made isn't accurate in my books. Certainly not terrible. Just fine. That's all. Oh and cocaine. Lots and lots of cocaine.

It has several cool songs. "Dreams", "Never going back again", "Don't stop.." , "Go your own way" ..
