I realized today I’m a bigger Fleetwood Mac fan than I thought

I don’t know why I came to this epiphany, but I heard several of their songs On a random pandora station and realized I’m a much bigger fan of theirs than I ever thought before. I really wish I had been raised in the late 60s and 70s based on the music that came out those decades. I’d have loved to see some of those bands live.

Loved the Peter green iteration growing up. Followed them through rumors and then drifted away but recently had a strong resurgence myself. Say you will and tusk very underrated and underplayed imo. Or maybe I was absent. Anyway have come back to them very strongly.

A lot of the younger Youtube music review channels have hit them hard in the past year. My 22 y/o son is into them now too. All making me "rediscover them" also, although I've never really left.
I'm an old fart who saw them twice concert back in my LSU days.

I know a lot of people like their early bluesy stuff, but I actually like the later, weirder pop sounds on Mirage and Tango in the Night more. Lindsey Buckingham seems pretty underrated as a producer, or maybe I'm the only one who loves songs like "Empire State" and "Eyes of the World".

I can take or leave Fleetwood Mac but Stevie Nicks is my spirit animal.

Good recommendation. To OP, I had a similar epiphany last year.

During the summer of 1977, between my junior and senior year, I worked at a truck stop 6-2 and my buddy worked at a gas station 6:30-2:30. Every afternoon one of us would pick up the other and pick up some Miller beer at the honky-tonk out on the highway and drive to this little bridge on an old dirt road and roll a J (or 4) and listen to Rumours, Agents of Fortune, Cat Scratch Fever, various Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, etc.
I remember Rumours blew our minds more than most of the others then. So much texture and talent... I know I'm rambling, but damn, I wish I could go back and re-live one week of that. RIP Quincy.

This happens to me everyone and a while.
Usually when I listen To like an 80s or 90s station and realize how many bangers Hall and Oates or the Gin Blossom had

I was so surprised when the tiktokers “discovered” Fleetwood Mac a few months ago. Who the hell is raising these kids?

I always viewed them as lame arse parents music growing up. It wasn’t until I hit my 30s that I started to enjoy them.

Is this resurgence due to that one viral video?
I assumed they just never went away, but not necessarily something to talk about.. I guess I take em for granted..
That said, not a big fan of the early incarnation.. Im firmly in the Buckingham/Nicks camp..

Just seemed the magic stopped there for me. Had listened through the Peter Green years and although enamored with the Buckingham Nicks sound, they were becoming more top 40 for the sake of top 40 and a bad direction.
Although sales wise not a bad move for them. Just to my ears.

Fleetwood Mac is criminally underrated in my opinion. Simply great musicians and songwriters
