Rumours (Full Album)

[Tommy-uhki]

I bought this awsome record in Budapest when I was 18 in 1978 during my first trip abroad from EastGermany to Hungary. I thought I couldn't believe my eyes when I found my absolute favourite record at this Hungarian record store, because it was really not available in my country. I scraped together my last Forints and bought the record. But I didn't know how to carry my treasure on my EastGerman 150ccmMotorBike. I kept it warm and safe in one of my saddlebags and hoped it wouldn't break or wouldn't be confiscated by Chech or EastGerman customs. But though I crashed the bike twice a little on this 1000km tour home, my record remained unharmed. Today my favourite record has a place of honor in my record collection... When I open my record box it's just in front and number one to see. Sweet memories ! Thank You Fleetwood Mac !

I was 12 years old when this came out. I am now 59, and I still listen to it regularly. A great album by a great band during an era filled with great music…

My 15 year old daughter asked me for this album on vinyl this week. (I bought her a turntable last year and have been buying her 1 random classic album per month since). That's the instant when I knew the kid would be alright. ❤

my mother loved this band and throughout my childhood she listened to this album on repeat...every single one of these songs I know the lyrics for. unfortunately she passed away when i was 11, but these songs....i see why she loved them so much. this whole album is actually a masterpiece.

I bought this album 40 years ago in Nigeria, and still adore it till date. May the souls of the departed in this group rest in the lord bossom.

When this album was released in early 1977, I had just turned 16. The following year, I was a senior, and one of my high school classmates who loved rock and soft rock introduced me to the genre by loaning me this album, a few by Queen, Styx, and a few others. As a Black girl growing up in the northeast Bronx, I sang in a gospel choir, in the choral group and gospel choir in school, and R&B and some pop music at home for fun. I listened to top-40 radio so that was the Osmond Family, the Jackson 5, Diana Ross, and also Barbara Streisand etc. When I heard Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" album, I ran it into the ground and had to go out and by my own. IN LOVE with them. Their music has withstood the test of time and will continue to do so. There are artists who have risen to phenomenal heights of success on the strength of one album and no matter what else they record, or how many awards they get, or how many successful tours they do, EVERYBODY wants to hear the music from that one album. For me, it's Fleetwood Mac "Rumours." I'm sure I'm not alone. There isn't a bad song on the album. There isn't a mediocre song on the album. It's like they were channeling angels or something when they wrote and recorded this thing.

Fall of 77'... It's like yesterday, I was walking down the street with this album tucked under my arm on my way to see my girl, Teri at one of her babysitting jobs. Kids were in bed so we just cuddled on the couch loving touching & squeezing. These songs transport me back to that night in time and makes me wanna go back. Damn!

[joannemaskall]

This album is a masterpiece.

Not only are the songs beautiful but the order they are in is perfection.

As a very nearly 50 year old who's mum played this this all the time, I am so happy my children listen to it too.

Hoping my Grandchildren to come will love it too.

Xx

At one of my first jobs (1977), we had a Christmas party and whoever drew my name, gave me this album. Still one my best gifts ever!

[camdenjace]

I was there when it dropped & I am here now. Rumours has always been just as it is - perfect, personal and timeless. If you have this music moving in your soul, you owe a debt of gratitude to this incredible group of artists.

[ndayiepapawaigo]

There is literally not a single bad or even mediocre song in this album. Masterpeice.

[recurvearcher]

I bought this album when first released, I still have it, I'm almost 71 hadn't listened to it in years, till today, and my god it still towers over anything you want to put up. Brilliant album by musicians hell bent on killing each other, how does that happen, magic.

[sandrasalcido]

I’m 13…I get home with this album and immediately, as I’m listening, taking in every detail of the pictures of the band. I immediately go to my drawers looking for any long skirts, scarves, bandanas I could find to wear. The magic that unfolded from this one album made it just as much a part of my DNA as any family member. I’m 60 now…..nothing’s changed.

Boy, Songbird just brings me to tears every time. Christine was an angel.

[baldiman]

Rest in peace Christine Anne Perfect, Fleetwood Mac's Songbird, creator of great music!Some tears running.Not many people do this on me. <3 THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC!

[kristinwright]

RIP lovely Christine. I just saw you in concert three years ago right before the pandemic. I see I'm not the only one curling up with Rumours in the wake of her sudden passing.

[greekpapi]

One of the best albums ever made. Every single song is great.

[chensel]

Born in 1991, just finished reading 'making rumours' by ken callait. What a luxury to be able to come listen to this masterpiece of an album. Life is good.
