Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Bland and misinformative
Review: I am not a fan of this "cashing in on my old bands success" formula. My favorite part of this book was going through it and picking out all the mistakes Bob Brunning made...there are numerous typing errors and even more information that is just not correct! The pictures aren't anything you haven't seen before...boring!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A pleasant read although it doesn't dig deep

Summary: A pleasant read although it doesn't dig deep
Review: I have to admit I read this book because I crave information on Stevie Nicks, not the history of the band she's usually associated with. I did end up finding some of the early history of Mick Fleetwood/John McVie's band interesting and amusing (I didn't know Mick had worked as an interior decorator). There is some good information on Stevie Nicks once she and Lindsey Buckingham enter the picture, but it just whets your appetite. You groan because you want to know more, much more about the events described. You want the DISH and there's just a sort of genial, breezy narrative here.

I did like the British author's writing style (he was assocatied with the Mac in their earliest blues career). He has a good sense of humor, an amusing vocabulary (at one point he describes a friend of Stevie's being "winched in" to help with one of her albums) and doesn't take himself too seriously. That's refreshing because I'm sure that when the members of the Mac write their own stories, they will. I liked this book but I'm sure hard core fans, the ones I feel I'm constantly trying to catch up to, knew all this stuff ages ago.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fleetwood Rocks!
Review: This book is great if you are a true FM fan! If you have the time to dig deep into the world of Fleetwood Mac, then read this book! It is an indepth look into a world that the author was actually a part of. Highly entertaining!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Probably the best objetive book on the Band available.
Review: Well written, entertaining, thorough book composed by a semi-insider close to the band. But still objective. This is the best overall book on the band. Mick's 2 books are also great but this one has an outside objectcive perspective. Highly recommended.
