You hit the nail on the head, the chain is the band. The members were tearing each other apart with personal drama, the entirety of Rumours is filled with breakup songs and snide remarks but they were chained together by the knowledge they were making something beautiful out of their pain.

[herrzimm]

That bass line drop is still one of the BEST ever written or recorded. Just the way the entire vibe of the song goes "umph" when that bass guitar goes "ooom".

[jasonhutcherson]

The chain is ❤! True unconditional ❤ Forever love. Whether it be partner, friends, family, so on. To me

Fleetwood Mac wrote 'The Chain' for their 1977 album 'Rumours'... Stevie Nicks (vocals) wrote the original demo... the band re-made the song and added more parts... it became a song about the band and was credited to all 5 members.
At that point in 1977, Fleetwood Mac was becoming a soap opera... Stevie Nicks (vocals) & Lindsey Buckingham (guitar & vocals) were a couple and they were breaking up during the recording... (the late) Christine McVie (keyboards & vocals) and her husband John McVie (bass) had separated, and Christine was dating someone else... Mick Fleetwood (drums) got divorced from his wife at the same time... So, there was plenty of heartbreak while this song was being recorded...
A while later, Mick Fleetwood and Stevie Nicks started dating as a couple, and they had to eventually tell Lindsey... but it didn't last. Mick Fleetwood apparently dumped Stevie for her friend Sara, whom he married for a while...

Thankfully, Lindsey Buckingham, John McVie and Mick Fleetwood eventually got happily married to new women not in the band!
Stevie Nicks only briefly married a friend, but has been single w/ no children... Christine McVie married one more time after John McVie but divorced and she stayed friends w/ her ex John McVie... She passed away in 2022 w/ no children.

the drama that was occurring with the band during the making of Rumors album is unbelievable

I've loved Fleetwood Mac most of my life. R.I.P. Christine....sorely missed. Stevie is an American treasure.

This concert was a historic reunion for Fleetwood Mac in 1997... They had not performed w/ this line-up (Lindsey Buckingham on guitar & vocals) since the 80's... Steve Nicks had also left the band by 1992. Fleetwood Mac was on hiatus by 1995.
In 1996, US President Bill Clinton won his re-election... he used Fleetwood Mac's song "Don't stop" at his rallies and thanked the band by inviting them to play at his 1997 inauguration - it was the first time they had played together in a decade.
The reception was so huge that they decided to reunite the classic Fleetwood Mac line-up in 1997 and a live album 'The Dance' was released that year... it went to #1 on the US charts and sold 5x platinum. A major comeback tour followed.
However, Christine McVie (keyboard & vocals) left the band in 1999 weary of touring... She returned to Fleetwood Mac to tour again in 2014 after 15 years away and did their last tours before she passed away in 2022.

Lindsey Buckingham is an amazing guitarist, singer, and songwriter. It's sad that he is no longer with Fleetwood Mac. They owe a lot of their success to him.

[dvsreed]

You need to see them live in the 70's. Check out their performance of "Rhiannon" live on the Midnight Special....it's a spectacular performance.

[davidens]

the guitar Lindsey Buckingham is using is a specific acoustic/electric hybrid instrument he got designed for himself .. it is very cool in my opinion

[teknotony]

Check out Silver Springs live in 2015, the chemistry between Stevie and Lyndsay after all them years is off the scale . Lovely reaction !

[MattJocks]

You nailed it. I believe it was the only song they did that had writing credits for all 5 members. I remember reading an article in Rolling Stone where the writer was present for a rehearsal and he or she (don't remember) described a rehearsal of this song and how much electricity and tension there was in the air when they finished it.

[happymethehappyone]

A MUST HEAR Classic, , Fleetwood Mac "Hypnotized"...TRUST ME on this one my music lovin' sister!!

Another great song from the "Rumours" album. "The Chain" was written during the turmoil in all of their lives. Lindsay Buckingham & Stevie Nicks were ending their years long relationship, John & Christine McVie's marriage broke down, as did that of Mick Fleetwood & his wife Jenny Boyd. Their album "Rumours" (1977) is one of the best-selling albums in history. All the songs on it are great such as "Dreams", "Go Your Own Way", "Don't Stop", "You Make Loving Fun". "Second Hand News", "Gold Dust Woman" etc. Sadly Christine McVie passed away recently.

I think when they wrote and recorded these songs for the "Rumors" album and then performed them live, it was their form of therapy to get past those personal moments.
It seemed to have worked over the years because they still remain great friends and even before the passing of Christine any remaining underlaying animosity has been resolved.
This band made beautiful music out of their turmoil and did it in a way that can not be repeated.

[paulchapman]

I've always been in love 💕 with Stevie Nicks. Got to be 50 years now.
RIP Christine McVie.
Almost a year since we lost her

You should see their performance of "TUSK", from this show. It was their encore, and they brought out the University of Southern California Marching Band on stage, to play the end of the song. It's absolutely breathtaking!

[patrickholt]

An old English slang for "wife" is "ball-and-chain", or "the old ball-and-chain". It refers to a form of leg shackle where an iron bracelet around a prisoner's ankle was welded to a chain welded to a cannonball. A kind of brutality from the period of the slave trade and western European imperial conquests around the world. So The Chain could also be the vows of marriage, and breaking the chain then meaning divorce.

[kirkmatsuyama]

Nothing greater than the band staying together at this point. I love all the different incarnations of Fleetwood Mac. Every key member was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame except Bob Welch. I believe he should have been inducted. My song recommendation is Bob Welch solo song version of Sentimental Lady. Live version with Christine McVie. 😊😊😊❤❤
