Our Take

FLEETWOOD MAC - The Original Fleetwood Mac

In the twisted labyrinth of rock history, Fleetwood Mac, the chameleonic pop institution we know today, once existed in a different form altogether. The Original Fleetwood Mac, a compilation album released in 1971, offers a glimpse into the band's early blues-rock incarnation, where Peter Green's virtuosic guitar work reigned supreme.

From the opening track, "Worried Dream," it's clear that this is not the polished, radio-friendly Fleetwood Mac we've come to know and love. Instead, we're treated to raw, unfiltered blues jams that eschew commercial appeal in favour of emotional authenticity.

Green's guitar playing is nothing short of mesmerising, weaving intricate solos that slice through the air like a surgeon's scalpel. Tracks like "Black Magic Woman" and "Albatross" showcase his unparalleled talent, while "Shake Your Moneymaker" oozes with a primal energy that's impossible to resist.

But it's not all about Green - the rhythm section of Mick Fleetwood and John McVie lays down a solid foundation that propels the songs forward with a relentless momentum. And with Jeremy Spencer's slide guitar adding a touch of country and western flair, The Original Fleetwood Mac is a musical melting pot that defies easy categorisation.

Ultimately, this album serves as a reminder of the band's humble beginnings and their willingness to push boundaries and experiment with different styles. While it may not be the Fleetwood Mac we're used to, The Original Fleetwood Mac is a fascinating glimpse into the band's evolution and a must-listen for any fan of blues rock.
