C.A.T: Rumours

Fleetwood Mac – Rumours (1977)
Since it is becoming increasingly probable that Nancy will never write a CAT again, here’s another quick one from me.

Proving my theory that anything that came out in 1977 is awesome is Fleetwood Mac’s opus Rumours. In the great tradition of the Beatles, this album probably made the word “rumors” one of the most frequently misspelled by young music lovers.

Apparently this album is the product of all the turmoil from the romantic relationships within the band. John McVie and Christine McVie divorced, Lindsey Buckingham (a man) and Stevie Nicks (a woman) split, and Stevie hooked up with Mick Fleetwood. It’s like, what were they thinking? This is some Friends bullshit! You don’t have to date the people you work with, there are literally billions of other fish in the sea. Anyway, it was probably worth it since this album shot Fleetwood Mac to superstardom and created some of their most famous tracks.

“Second Hand News” is the first track you’ll hear, and it’s a damn fine one. It’s hard to resist singing along or at least engaging in some proper toe-tapping. I’d say that’s true about Linsey Buckingham’s other two tracks as well, “Never Going Back Again” and “Go Your Own Way.” These songs are the immortal hits of the band, and while certainly highlights for me, that is not to say the rest of the tracks aren’t good. Really they are. You’ve probably heard them before. Go listen to “Dreams,” the second track on the disc. Yeah, you’ve heard that. And it’s good. I could go on, but I don’t want to.

Most people could probably say they’ve heard this album without even knowing its name, because I hear a lot of these songs on the radio all the time. And I don’t even listen to the radio very often. But that just demonstrates how freakin’ good Rumours is. If you’re someone like Kevin, you should definitely give this album a listen just so you can identify those songs you hear all the time.

Favorite Tracks: “Second Hand News,” “Never Going Back Again,” “Go Your Own Way”
