Got a Hold on Me: Christine McVie’s Solo Works Returning to Print

July 12, 2023 by Mike Duquette | 3 Comments

The loss of longtime Fleetwood Mac keyboardist Christine McVie last year remains deeply felt by fans of the long-running group’s unbeatable pop/rock songs. Today, on what would have been her 80th birthday, Rhino Records is releasing unheard music by (and in tribute to) her, with plans to reissue two of her solo albums this fall. On November 3, Rhino will reissue a remastered version of 1984’s Christine McVie on CD and vinyl, with a cola-bottle clear color variant of the latter available exclusively at Barnes & Noble. That same day, they will also…

Stand Back: Rhino Releases Stevie Nicks’ Complete Discography on CD, LP Box

June 14, 2023 by Mike Duquette | 8 Comments

If you’ll forgive the easy reference, there’s no one quite as bewitching as Stevie Nicks. Since she joined Fleetwood Mac in 1975 and helped turn them from British blues-based cult act to blockbuster pop/rock icons, her enrapturing voice and stage presence have influenced generations. In 1981, she began a parallel solo career with hits on her own that helped make her, in 2019, the first woman inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice. It’s that solo material that’s the subject of a brand-new box set from Rhino, featuring all…

The Message is Love: Demon Preps Box Set of Arthur Baker Remixes

May 4, 2023 by Mike Duquette | 3 Comments

Demon Music Group scored a real coup in 2021 with the release of Dance Masters: Shep Pettibone (The Classic Master Mixes), a box set devoted to the stellar late ’80s and early ’90s remixer. The branding on the set indicated that Dance Masters was to be a series, presented by another remixing great: American DJ/producer Arthur Baker. Now, two years later, another Dance Masters set is forthcoming, focused on the work of Baker himself. Dance Masters: Arthur Baker (The Classic Dance Remixes), due July 7, will bring Baker’s work behind the mixing…

In Memoriam: Christine McVie (1943-2022)

December 1, 2022 by Mike Duquette | 2 Comments

Many words have already been typed to memorialize Christine McVie, the stalwart Fleetwood Mac singer/songwriter/keyboardist who died November 30 after a brief illness. But really, it was right there in the name all along: before that fateful marriage to John McVie, she was born Christine Perfect. How she’d live up to that name over time. McVie, a founding member of the British blues band Chicken Shack, joined her bass-playing husband in Fleetwood Mac in 1970, a year after they were wed. Almost immediately, her talents were recognizable: she was a fan of…

Review: Fleetwood Mac, “Live” [Deluxe Edition]

May 10, 2021 by Joe Marchese | 11 Comments

When Fleetwood Mac’s Live reached store shelves in time for Christmas 1980, the deluxe 2-LP set was following another mammoth affair: Tusk, released just fourteen months earlier. While Tusk was a success by any measure – it reached No. 4 on the Billboard 200 and yielded two U.S. top ten singles – it fell off the album chart within nine months as opposed to its predecessor, Rumours, which spent a record-breaking nine consecutive weeks at No. 1 in 1977-1978 on its way to becoming one of the biggest sellers of all time. …

Landslide: Fleetwood Mac Readies Super Deluxe Expansion of ‘Live’

February 10, 2021 by Joe Marchese | 12 Comments

Fleetwood Mac’s Live arrived in December 1980, roughly fourteen months after the adventurous Tusk. While Tusk had peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 and yielded two U.S. top ten hits, it fell off the albums chart after nine months. (Rumours, in contrast, spent 31 non-consecutive weeks at No. 1 in 1977-1978, a record for a group or duo.) With the public still hungry for new Fleetwood Mac material, the band issued the sprawling double album Live. It was the first live album from the line-up of Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks,…

Tell Me All The Things You Do: Rhino Boxes Fleetwood Mac’s Early Reprise Years

July 23, 2020 by Joe Marchese | 21 Comments

1975’s Fleetwood Mac introduced a new sound for the band founded by Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Peter Green, and Jeremy Spencer. The addition of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to the lineup saw a marked shift towards mainstream pop-rock and earned the group its first No. 1 album. But the Mac had been reinventing itself virtually from the start. Now, its early years are being revisited on a pair of new releases from Rhino due September 4. Fleetwood Mac 1969 to 1974 is a long-anticipated, 8-CD box set chronicling all seven studio…

Before The Beginning: Fleetwood Mac’s “Then Play On” Receives “Celebration” Editions on CD and LP This September

June 25, 2020 by Sam Stone | 10 Comments

On September 18, nearly 51 years to the day from its original release, Fleetwood Mac’s third album, Then Play On, will be reissued on BMG on CD and half-speed mastered 2-LP in a special “Celebration Edition.” And as far as Fleetwood Mac albums go, this one is certainly worth celebrating. On Then Play On, the band steers away from the straight-ahead blues covers that dominated their earlier albums. The band’s lineup was also in transition – one of many such changes the Mac would see in its 50+ year history – as…

Hidden Depth: Cherry Red, Esoteric Expand “The End of the Game” from Fleetwood Mac’s Peter Green

February 25, 2020 by Joe Marchese | 2 Comments

The End of the Game, influential blues guitarist and Fleetwood Mac co-founder Peter Green’s 1970 proper debut album, should have marked a beginning rather than the promised end. But Green’s title was prescient; he didn’t return with another album for almost a decade even as his old band skyrocketed to superstardom. Cherry Red’s Esoteric Recordings imprint has just returned The End of the Game to CD in a single-disc, expanded edition. Green entered the studio for The End of the Game under duress; he was contractually obliged to Warner Bros.’ Reprise label…

Say You Love Me: Rhino Collects Classic Fleetwood Mac Titles in New Color Vinyl Box Set

December 3, 2019 by Sam Stone | No Comments

Fleetwood Mac were untouchable in the ’70s and ’80s, releasing five consecutive multi-platinum albums from 1975 to 1987. Their self-titled “White Album,” Rumours, Tusk, Mirage, and Tango in the Night dominated the airwaves and the album charts, and the band became one of the best-selling acts of the decade. This Friday, December 6, those five landmark albums will be released in a new color vinyl box set called Fleetwood Mac: 1975-1987. It features the 1975 album Fleetwood Mac — which introduced the Buckingham-Nicks configuration — pressed onto white vinyl; the era-defining Rumours on clear vinyl; the ambitious double-album Tusk…
