Thumbs up Favorite Pre-Rumours Album???

So, we all know that Fm had a great run before the Rumours line-up, so my question is what your all's fave Pre-Rumours album is.

Feel free to discuss.

I believe mine is Mystery To Me. First Pre R. one that I heard, and have been in love with it ever since.

Much Love,
Ethan

Default poll incomplete

Dear Folks,

I do not know if you are aware of it but there are other albums inbetween PGs Fleetwood Mac (dog and dustbin) and Then Play On
my real favorite is Mr Wonderful, but there is Fleetwood Mac in Chicago (a very close second) English Rose which is really half Mr Wonderful,half singles that were not on Mr Wonderful. This does not include The biggest thing since Colosus which is minus Mic Fleetwood and Plus Otis Spann and his drummer.
People should be able to vote on those too.

Oh, it's really a toss-up.

I'll use my standard line regarding ALL Fleetwood Mac albums:

"My favorite Fleetwood Mac album is the one I'm listening to at any particular moment".

That said, from their inception to 1974, I keep going back to either English Rose or Mystery To Me the most. With Heroes Are Hard To Find & Then Play On close seconds.

And, I just realized, I DO play Future Games an awful lot...especially on Sunday mornings. It's a great "lazy wake up" album.

and there is the 'original fleetwood mac' which though released in the 70's collects recordings that pre-date 'pg's fleetwood mac' (correct?).

and the uk-issued 'fleetwood mac's greatest hits' which includes uk singles up to 'dragon fly'. only pre 1974 record with man of the world, oh well (not originally on uk 'then play on') and the green manalishi...

adhering to poll rules: original uk 'then play on'

following to vinnie c.'s rules: 'fleetwood mac in chicago'

zero's rules: uk 'fleetwood mac's greatest hits'

This is tough because I like MTM and Heroes about the same. I ended up picking Heroes but MTM is very close. Bare Trees would come afterwards.

After Then Play On, with Pete leaving, I was quite surprised that Kiln House blew me away as well. This band is bigger than it's stars. It's just a recipient
of incredible Mojo
Of course we all knew that anyway
I voted for Kiln House

I used to use the Beach Boys for that Sunday morning wake up stuff Steve
