Summary: Excellent behind the music documentary
Comment: This comes from the great "Classic Albums" series and is a fantastic look behind the making of Rumours. Featuring interviews with all band members and their producers you get a real sense of the turmoil and creativity that went into each song.
From the conception of many of the songs to how they became layered, completed mixes, I love hearing each songwriter's story. There are a few performances such as "You make loving fun", "Dreams" and the "Chain" but this is not for you if you just want to see live performances. Nevertheless this is a great doco,

Summary: a behind the scenes of the making of one of the most important albums of all time
Comment: it's good to go back and see how the band members felt and recall their time in making this very important album. i just love how the engineers and producers can go back to the studio and select different tracks, break them down so you can hear what went into them instrument by instrument. lindsey buckingham is a wizard in the studio. stevie nicks and christine mcvie are philosophical about those times and are interviewed in nice settings. mick and john are their practical selves. yea the music clips come up a little short. but it's not a concert tape. i'm glad they could put some of those clips in. an important look back on the making of one of the most important albums of all time.

Summary: ok...
Comment: We bought this DVD because we enjoy watching concerts on our surround sound system. But this is more a documentary then a concert. Like something you would see on VH1, Behind the Music. A little disappointing.

Comment: Fleetwood Mac goes way back as a RnB band, but when Christine McVie, and Buckingham and Nicks, joined, they couldn't have made a better move nor better music. It's a shame that Stevie Nicks said she gave up on having children to keep Fleetwood Mac going, but that's on her head.
One of the most popular albums of all times, Fleetwood Mac's 1977 album "RUMOURS" spent 130 weeks on the U.S. Billboard album chart and won the Album of the Year award at the 1978 Grammy Awards. It has been certified for sales of 19 million albums by the RIAA. The record almost wasn't made. John and Christine McVie were in the process of seperating, the relationship of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks was on the fritz, and the turmoil between the five members was high. These emotions were channeled into the songwriting process in Sausalito, California that became "RUMOURS". Featuring interviews with Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, and Stevie Nicks, along with the studio engineers and producers, "Rumours - Classic Album" tells the story of the making of this smash album. Featuring the smash hits "Dreams", "Don't Stop", "You Make Loving Fun", and "Go Your Own Way", along with oft-heard tracks "Songbird", "The Chain", and "Gold Dust Woman" Fleetwood Mac's "RUMOURS" is a Classic Album.
