Fleetwood Mac, Through the Years

Summary: Pure Drivel! Don't buy!
Review: I am a hard-core FM fan, but I must say this is the most poorly written book I've ever read. Don't buy it. Save your money. It will tell you nothing you don't know. IT is basically the off-the-cuff rambling of a clearly not that intelligent and certaintly not even that enthusiastic fan. It is a total amateur job. It is loaded with copy errors, misspellings, puctuation goofs, and worst of all glaring mistakes, like calling Stevie's first solo album "Belle Donna". Come on! What kind of an idiot is this guy. As if that wasn't bad enough, the writing reads like it was written by a fifth grader. It is truly a chore to read this book. There are only a few photos, all are poorly repoduced, and 90% of them are of Stevie Nicks. This book will give you no new insight. This guy doesn't know diddly about the band- has no connections, he is just a fan. 90% of the book is just pull quotes from magazine articles and other FM books. The other 10% is the author's uninformed opinions. I cannot say enough about how lousy this book is. IF you want a good overview of the band which is objective, check out Bob Brunning's thrououghly readable "Thirty Years of Fleetwood Mac." Don't buy this turkey!

Summary: Exciting history of Fleetwood Mac in new book.
Review: I am excited about my latest book 'Fleetwood Mac, Through the Years.' I have done two books on Stevie Nicks in the past, but with this book I had more space to bring out the history of the band. One thing that enabled me to do this was having access to an incredible archive of the group. I was able to use extensive articles, interviews, concert reviews and more for my research. I complied numerous sources for their view points and insight. Also, the book is in large format style and the photos look very impressive on a larger scale. I really believe that this book is a valuable addition to the Fleetwood Mac library and archives that have already been done.

Summary: Ho-Hum
Review: Thid book was an overview of the Fleetwood Mac career. It covered nothing new, was full of reviews, which I thought was interesting because I was not there to read them the first time around. I would also like to note that this book was written by a man who is a fan of Stevie's and concentrates heavily on her career and has many pictures of her and not the rest of the band. All in all, a good book if you know nothig about Fleetwod Mac and if you are a Stevie fan.

Summary: Boring reading for a longtime fan of "The Mac"
Review: This book held no info that I did not know already. It is mostley full of reviews (past & present) of the band. Not to metion the authur did'nt pay his proof reader enough (many typos thruout book). Claims the pictures have never been seen before, they can be found on numerous F.M. pages on the net. Glad I did not make a purchase that day.
