FLEETWOOD MAC
USA - yellow EPIC RECORDS - BN 26402
Original 1968 vinyl pressing ~~ the very first Fleetwood Mac album, featuring the dynamic guitar showcase of Peter Green, fresh off his stint with Mayall's BLUESBREAKERS!
Fleetwood Mac the self-titled debut album was released in 1968. This album is British blues with killer flourishes from beginning to end. The vocals are shared between Peter Green and second guitarist Jeremy Spencer.
Hardcore blues. That's what the record is, from top to bottom. And what could you expect from a group that graduated out of John Mayall's Bluesbreakers? The only question is: why did they have to quit Mayall if they didn't do anything different from what they did with him? Peter Green and Mick Fleetwood thought that a new hardcore blues band, with some injection of new blood and a relatively fresh approach, would rekindle the interest in 'roots-rock', so shamefully lost since the advent of the 'psychedelic' era. Thus the Mac took on an honourable function: serve as 'shining knights' of prime unadulterated blues-rock at an epoch when everybody was trying to get away from it. They performed that function with verve - proudly carrying the blues on their shoulders through 1967 and 1968 and caressing it as best they could until it became obvious that other bands, starting from the Beatles and especially the Stones, were getting back to their 'roots' as well - that's when the Mac started relinquishing theirs.
