Summary: Fleetwood Mac Rumours
Review: If you want to hear music, don't purchase this video. Each song is quickly interrupted with current interviews of band members talking mostly of their failed romantic relationships during the recording of Rumours. This should be labeled a documentary, not a music video. The band members do talk about the music, and there are nice clips shot at Sausalito, California's Record Plant showing how particular tracks were mixed. However, I believe using the Rumours album cover on the video packaging deceptively implies that it is a music video.

Summary: Don't be fooled this is just a documental
Review: It's disappointing to say the least. I'm not sure what Suzzette Phillips is talking about in her review, but on my version the classic album rumors isn't on my dvd. (And nowhere on the disc or packaging does it say the album is contained on the disc. Possibly, there are two versions? Anyway, 75 minutes of interviews about each song, and vintage footage each lasting about 15 to 30 seconds. Nothing new is on here that you haven't seen on any other documentary. It would be great if they played the vintage live selections in their entirety.

Summary: Silver Springs
Review: John IversonYou could be my silver spring
Blue green colors flashing
I would be your only dream
Your shining over ocean crashing
And did you say she was pretty?
And did you say that she loves you?
Baby I don't want to know I begin not to love you
Turn around, see me running
I say I loved you years ago
But tell myself you never loved me, no
And did you say she was pretty?
And did you say that she loves you?
Baby I don't want to know
Oh no
And can you tell me was it worth it? Really I don't want to know Time cast its spell on you
But you won't forget me
I know I could have loved you
But you would not let me
Time cast its spell on you
But you won't forget me
I know I could have loved you
But you would not let me
I'll follow you down till the sound
Of my voice will haunt you
You'll never get away from the sound
Of the woman that loves you
I'll follow you down till the sound
Of my voice will haunt you
Was I just a fool?
You'll never get away from the sound
Of the woman that loves you
Was I just a fool?
I'll follow you down till the sound
Of my voice will haunt you
You'll never get away from the sound
Of the woman that loves you
You could be my silver spring

Summary: A must for Mac fans
Review: My favorite parts were watching the three singers sing three of their songs solo. Stevie plays piano and sings "Dreams" beautifully. Lindsey gives us the acoustic version of "Never Going Back Again", wonderful! Christine sings "Songbird" the same way it was originally recorded, in an empty concert hall. I also liked the old concert footage. It's interesting how the sound engineers and Lindsey break down the songs at the mixing table for the viewer. There's even a bit of "Oh Daddy" with Stevie's vocals in the front. Very interesting for FM fans.

Review: No one song complete, just short clips and explanations about the making of the album, nice but not for a dvd, at least in my humble opinion.

Summary: Big Love
Review: Returning to the circumstances surrounding the recording of the Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" is as nostalgic, glowing and painful for the viewer as it is for the members of the band. That's a great accomplishment for a documentary. We find our own experiences that we attached to the songs back in 1977 were perhaps rosier than those who wrote, sang and recorded this pop masterpiece. But we've all aged and experienced much of what these artists have and were immersed in at the time; and it's brave of them not only to have recorded it in the first place, but to return to the experience with such candor. And "big" love doesn't really leave us. Its face may change or we may hold it closer to or farther from us, but once we've experienced it, those chains will always "keep us together." Very personal filmmaking here with exquisite sound.

Summary: Fantastic dissection of legendary album
Review: Rumours is always on the best album lists and everyone knows it won the Grammy as album of the year in 1977, but if you truly want to know why, then buy this video. It breaks down each song with Lindsey, Stevie, Chris, Mick and even the never-vocalizing John. They tell how they wrote the songs, recorded them and you get to hear how the harmonies came together so perfectly. The producers also explain how they worked their magic. Not too many people heard of "Silver Springs" before "The Dance" came out, but I knew of it and I heard of how the band tore out Stevie's heart by not including it on the album. This video tells the story of how a legendary album was made and how one more song would have made it the most PERFECT album ever recorded. P.S I also can't say enough about "Stevie - In Concert 1982" Buy these NOW!!!!

Summary: Rumours DVD
Review: The Rumours DVD is a retrospective documentary made 21 years after its release. Nothing more and nothing less. It's appeal will primarily benefit those interested in the way the tracks were laid down, the underlying emotions that led to the creation of the individual songs, and hearing bits and pieces of the tracks with the other instruments removed. It's important to remember that no filming occurred in the Record Plant (their recording studio) during the sessions. The film footage that did exist was all post production concert footage; sound quality that is poor by present video based audio standards. With that said, those interested in learning how one of the most emotionally charged albums in Rocks history was created will find the DVD very gratifying. Those looking for film footage of the songs being played in their entirety will be disappointed.
