Your Fleetwood Mac Collection??
 

For those of you who really enjoy collecting the rare Fleetwood Mac stuff, what is the one thing in your colelction that you are most proud to own??..

For me it would have to be a few things:

GIANT poster from 1977..its like 35"x57"..huge..has a callage of pictures on it....great ebay find for only 20.00 (always sells for 40-50)

I have the funky callage thingy from the tusk LP signed by mick fleetwood as well as go your own way/dreams (80s reissue) signed by mick as well.

Timespace CD booklet signed by stevie...and signed to my name..

Tusk LP signed by Richard Dashut and Ken Caillat..


Those are some of my favs in my collection

Oh boy, I don't know, I'd have to just say my collection as a whole which has taken many years to get to the point I'm at now with it as I'm only about 20 items away from having an original (CD/vinyl) of (at least) one copy of every studio & live song that has ever been released legally that has at least one member (of all the 16 Mac members) on the recording (as far as I know anyways) in some form (though I must admit, I'm not really into the "remixes" or other artists "covering" songs written by a FM member (unless one of the FM members plays/sings on it of course). For my collection, at least one of the 16 gotta be on the recording, whether they are playing something or backing vocals or whatever) though I can certainly understand why many of you do like the "remixes" & "covers", there's so many fascinating things to come across whist FM collecting! :)

I've got a couple limited edition things where there were only a couple hundred pressed or whatever but it would take longer to explain their relevance to my collection than it's worth and it'd probably send many of you to sleep as many of those relate mainly to the more, how shall we say, "obscure" members of FM (Brunning, Mason, Walker, Weston, etc.).

Good question Adam! I'm looking forward to seeing what others have to say on this as well! :)

Hmmmm...what to mention:

My 1976 Eric Clapton concert program, autographed by Christine, Stevie, Mick & Lindsey.

My copy of Christine's 1984 solo CD autographed by Sara Fleetwood

My copy of the Splinter Group's "Destiny Road" CD signed by Peter Green, Pete Stroud, Nigel Watson & Larry Tolfree.

Come to think of it, my #1 is an 8x10 framed photo of me with Ledgies, K.E. Gil and Phil Hof, together with Peter Green outside the Ventura Theatre in Sept 2000.

The three Rick Vito solo CD's autographed by him ("Pink & Black", "Lucky Devils" & "Crazy Cool")

My autographed copy of Todd Sharp's "Walking All The Way" CD

My copy of the "Future Games" LP with the original YELLOW cover (with Red lettering).

My original pressing of the "Mystery To Me" LP .

My first pressing 45 of "GYOW"/"Silver Springs"

Still have (and it's about 11 sizes too small now) the baseball undershirt I got at the Hollywood Bowl the final night of the "Tusk" tour.

From BigAl's description, I think I still have that same giant poster.
Also a slightly smaller poster of what looks like the Midnight Special performance.

I lost a 3' x 4' poster of the "chicken coop sessions" (the cover of the new VBoFM booklet) during one of my many moves.

The issue of Rolling Stone magazine that reviewed "Tusk" (Bette Midler in a bed of roses on the cover)

Those are great momentos, but what it comes down to is just collecting the music, for me.

After so many years..........

1. All my "Rare cds"
2. An autographed Stevie Nicks tourbook from the '94 show after meeting her.
3.The photo of Mick and I taken at QVC in '1996 after spending 45 minutes "interviewing "him.
4. The altimate box set I created using 25+ years of photos creating a trunk that is full of photos inside and out of great pictures and many things I have picked up since 1977.

My prized possessions....
 

I would have to say my Buckingham Nicks album and my Tusk tourbook. I don't have anything SUPER rare.

I also love all the posters I have (chicken coop 77, Tusk (my fave), Lindsey's GI and OOTC posters and Tango in the Night -British). I am trying to find a decently priced Mirage poster. I keep missing out on them!!

I'm also looking for a Tusk era tee shirt...I found one on Ebay, but it may go for a very high price, I'll have to keep my eye on it.

THANK GOD FOR EBAY! LOL

My favorite FM related items are:

My huge framed black and white poster of the inside cover from Rumours...where I think Chris, Stevie, and Mick are all sitting and John and Lindsey are standing. I love this one.

My framed Wild Heart poster....the one that almost looks like a painting of Stevie's face, wearing that head dress thingy.

My drumstick that was given to me after the 2000 AHI Benefit concert by Scotty Craigo.

BUT MY FAVORITE.....would have to be the frame that I have hanging on my wall with pride, which includes:
- 9 out of my 10 Shangri-La concert ticket stubs (I kept my Reading, PA one in my wallet for good luck).
- 2 After Show Shangri-La tour passes.
- 1 VIP Shangri-La backstage laminate.
- and a piece of paper from the Alladin Hotel with signatures from the following people wishing me a Happy 21st Birthday: Stevie's entire tour crew, band, back-up singers, Chris Nicks, Lori Nicks, John McVie, Mick Fleetwood, and Bobbeye Hall. Oh, and John Kinney :) Basically, everyone BUT Stevie....lol....it rocks.

I would say my most treasured is my TISL tourbook signed by Stevie, Sheryl Crow, Chris and Lori Nicks and pretty much all of Stevie's band. :)

Pip

Wow Chili....awesome stuff you have there!

Re: Your Fleetwood Mac Collection??
 

My cherished collection is the wonderful times I've had with all my fellow Fleetwood Mac fans!

These golden memories make it all worthwhile ....

1. a signed Christine Perfect LP (still hopping around because of that one)

2. the Tusk-tourbook

3. a Stevie tambourine (that one was really expensive)

4. all "uncirculated rumours" LP's

Plus various other stuff, in 24 years of looking, you can even find some stuff in Germany. :)

My Buckingham Nicks gatefold I love..I got that for $50 believe it or not..I was rather dumb I guess. I got that in early 98 when I was a rather new fan.

Also my posters...my TUSK double sided poster, my Street Angel poster with Stevie looking so divine! My Greatest Hits poster ( 1988) that I happened to just find...

My Other Side of the Mirror from England with the hologram sticker included.

My Sara 12 inch single that I found with that amazing pic of everyone undressing Lindsey! I didn't stop staring at that for days...maybe weeks!

My Picture Interview LP from Europe with a live pic from Stevie on one side and a pic of the Behind the Mask FM.

My 1983 Wild Heart tour shirt that some guy gave to me at a record store...fits me perfectly!

All my tourbooks of course...

Everything I guess...my 70 videos too. With Ebay...it seems like nothing is precious but some of these things I got from other fans or looking through many old record stores (or my friend doing it for me when she went across the pond for 4 months) ..

I guess my FAV is when a friend went to the Dance tour and got a picture of Lindsey in a hotel and then sent me an original print of it. That was awesome and I'll never forget that!

Or my ticket stubs from the Dance tour...nothing can replace those experiences!

Sorry...I guess I am a undecided pack rat!

I have nothing rare. :( :(

I don't have anything rare except...

"Mirage" vinyl STILL wrapped in it's original plastic.

"Go Insane," "Law & Order" and "Tango" vinyls

My dad has a Japanese vinyl of "Rumours" along with the original "Buckingham Nicks" and "Go Your Own Way/Silver Springs" single.

If I had to pick one...
 

It would be my Out of The Cradle concert poster I got Lindsey to sign.

But I also just love collecting all the demos I can get my hands on!

wow...kris

HOW EVER DID YOU GET SUCH A RARE FIND ;)

kyla

Welll.....the tickets are my own from the shows that I saw....ten total....the after show passes and backstage laminate are also my own that I got on the tour....and the birthday paper I got from my GREAT friend and college roomate Julie who was backstage in Vegas and L.A. ( I coulnd't make it) and got everyone to sign while she was there! She is the GREATEST friend....best birthday present ever for sure.

Kristin

Janet!!
 

:eek: OMG, girl!! Can you or ANYONE hook me up with that photo, scan it or something!? :nod::D

Janet, Girl you better scan that pic!
C'mon share the love!

I have to say that is the most impressive thing of the lot!

In no particular order...
 

My blown up 11 x 14 pic of me and Stevie holding hands and smiling at each other during EO17 on the 2nd night in Vegas - on the TISL tour. It's framed and hangs in my bedroom - with my laminated VIP pass hanging from one corner, and the TISL dragon necklace hanging from the other corner.

My gatefold B/N album, signed by Lindsey (in 2 different colors of ink - the first pen ran out - he laughed at the pic and made a comment about bell bottom jeans being back in style)...

The pic of me and Lindsey taken that same day.

The pic of me, my friend Bruce and Mick - during the Tango tour.

My Rumours album, autographed my Mick, John and Lindsey.

The TISL lyric book - signed to me from Stevie (a dj friend of mine got it for me at the listening party).

The Stevie hologram in my foyer.

All the unreleased demos and old interviews and oddities I have on cassettes and VHS tapes.

The TISL tourbook with my pic on the nicksfix page.

:wavey:

Livia

It's nothing really rare but means a lot to me...a Buckingham/Nicks album that is in mint condition...the record and everything looks brand new.

Jen:nod:

Lindsey!!!
 

:wavey: Oh, Janet...I BEG of you Please share the Picture
of those fortunate ppl undressing adorable Lindsey!
Please...Please with Sugar on it!!!#1 Fan...Skylark:)

Re: In no particular order...
 

That is a totally awesome picture!

Pip

I would have to say my Buckingham Nicks LP, my Unfounded Rumors LP set, and my Autographed FM poster.
(I'm working on getting The White Winged Dove Rolling Stone BARBIE):blob1:

Hey this thread is from 2002? wow!!

If CDs or Albums are not included, I'd say my THE DANCE poster.
I gave up my Tango tour t-Shirt. I found it in 1992 in a record store in Germany. It was already a classic merchandise, wasn't it? And I wore it.. I guess until (circa) 2003, yes it was too old and I used it as pijama of course

Then I still keep some 1997 t-shirts, SYW too, and now the unleashed tour t-shirts.

Hands down it would have to be my "Rhiannon" poster, signed to me personally by Stevie. It's the big one, limited edition with only 5000 printed. I had it professionally matted and framed and it has hung in a prominent spot in every place I have lived since 1987!

Neither do I. :( I do, however, treasure my high-quality copies of the Tusk Documentary, The Mirage Tour, and Rumours Tour Japan -- all burned to DVD. :D Those qualify as rarities, I guess. :rolleyes:

-Matt

--My Fleetwood Mac rings (one each of Lindsey, Stevie, Christine, Mick and John), I wear whoever I'm going to see whenever I go to see them.

--I have an album frame that the Rumours cover is in. Mick signed it during pre-show and I added the autographed Law and Order booklet I bought at an LB show and my personally obtained Stevie Soundstage CD booklet inside the frame too. Three down, two to go. (Although dare to dream for Greenie as well.)

Signed GOS. :thumbsup:

Wow you all have some very wonderful things! I am still working on getting things..& probably will forever! :lol:

My favs are... a signed SYW cd (the one that looks like a mini book with pages inside w/ lyrics and the bonus cd) Stevie, John, Mick and Lindsey all signed the front.

My two-sided Tusk poster I have framed, I love it cuz the one side they just look like they are having a great time together.

Buckingham Nicks lp (not very rare but I LOVE it & every song on it)

And my DVD with all of the greatest live preformances of Lindsey & Stevie in the early years... like 36 videos on there. That is WONDERFUL!

And I love my Sept. 1981 Rolling Stone mag with Stevie on it... because this is the year and month I was born in. So I feel like Bella Donna is the soundtrack of my life. :xoxo:

Oh and my Bella Donna poster, can't forget that one. :)

I'd really love an autpgraphed Bella Donna lp... I am gonna keep tryin ebay... seems like someone always out bids me dangit! :confused:

Anyway...love this thread. :wavey:

My prized possession is my FM autographed guitar and my Lindsey oil painting that he signed.

Well not really relevant to this forum, but probably the best thing in my FM collection is my cd copies of Billy Burnette's CDs. As some of you may know I am one of the weird people who collect stuff by all 16 members, and so you can imagine my delight to find someone who had professionally copied Billy's out of print albums to CD. Sure they might officially be bootlegs, but it was still fantastic to hear such great music that is long out of print.

I think my favorite most recent acquisition is a mint copy of the Tusk liner notes lithograph. It is super cool.

I also like all of my vinyl bootlegs. I don't collect boots on CD or anything, but I like tracking down the old ones on vinyl. I have "Albatross, But Not Around My Neck Please," which makes me laugh, and I recently snagged the Live Ivory vinyl to add to the others.

I can never seem to get the Uncirculated Rumours set, though, for some reason.

My sigpic...

I love my Rumours n' Fax book :p its not rare but its still cool

And my Tusk tour book from there concert in NZ

I Don't have much but i love my "The Other Side Of The Mirror" Mirrored Poster, its pretty awesome, and a big a2 promo poster from OSOTM too.


And I was the first person in NZ to have "crystal visions" Btw!

Im going to the U.S at the end of the year so hopefully i can find some cool stuff when im over there!

I have all of the usual stuff, the promo posters for all of the albums (Mac and solo Stevie) from "Rumours" on up. I have all of the albums on vinyl and CD, all of the singles and picture sleeves (which I just found out today that the "Nightbird" sleeve is worth about $50 in mint condition, good to know!). I have all of the tour books, I have all of the demos etc. But what I like the most is:

1) The matted and framed "City Of Hope, Stevie & Friends Concert" promo poster from 1983.

2) My platinum album RIAA award for "Rock A Little" awarded to Modern Records. With record awards it depends on who it was awarded to, ideally it would be to the artist, next is the producer, then the record label after that is musicians and radio stations. I had a chance to get either the award to Modern for "RAL" or the award to Stevie for "Bella Donna", I didn't think I stood a chance in getting the BD award, so I bid on the RAL award, turns out I would have won the BD award had I bid!!!

3) Finally my other most prized item in my collection are my original radio shows on LP or CD (depending on what it was issued to radio on). I have over 120 shows I think from 1976 thru today. These include concerts and interviews. Some really awesome stuff on these shows.

I have a Bella Donna LP and a Stevie 2008 tour t-shirt. :D Isn't my collection sooper special?

I don't have anything sooper special either haha!

The Complete Blue Horizon Sessions 1967–1969 boxset
Fleetwood Mac (1975)
Rumours
Mirage
Belladonna
The Wildheart
Crystal Visions
2 Stevie solo tour shirts from last year
Stevie's tourbook from last year
1 FM shirt from Unleashed tour
1 poster from Unleashed tour (with 6 year old pictures on it :rolleyes:)
plus a couple of greatest hits cds...the one from 1988 and the "Very Best of" double cd

Oh, I forgot I have the Crystal Visions tourbook in my closet too. :) And all of FM and Stevie's official CDs. Well, I suppose it depends on what you consider to be 'official'.

Ooh, where'd you get the Ivory vinyl?
