Life without Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac would be glum

Well said, couldn't agree more.

For me, it's definitely also the Peter Green lineup, but I do like the post-Green lineups as well. It's so weird that we are forced to compare them, due to the name, when the reality is, they have so little in common music-wise.

I really am only familiar with Fleetwood Mac from the Rumours Album onward. From reading the posts on this thread I think I must start listening to the earlier stuff. I do love the Rumours Album though.

The musical style of Fleetwood Mac from the era of 1967-1970 is way more up my alley and I enjoy it much more. It can not be denied though that the band had way more success with the lineup with Nicks/Buckingham/C.McVie in it.

I call the later Fleetwood Mac Plastic Mac. I love Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac, I thought Jeremy Spencer was a great addition to the BB three and young Danny Kirwan was a great guitarist for his age. He showed that in the late sixties you could be any age to be an influence on other blues guitarists, especially with BB King being a main influence and the extravagant performers who played blues inspired music of the time. In my opinion one of the greatest straight up blues bands to ever exist. However, later Fleetwood Mac is very hard to compare, a very talented outfit that wrote songs in a modern manner and fantastically drifted from decade to decade. I enjoy both but blues Fleetwood Mac was such a natural blues band!

Really not a Stevie fan by any means but Rumours is a great album. Peter Green's lineup will always be uncontested.
