View Full Version : What's your most prized item in your FM collection?
For those who collect Fleetwood Mac memorabilia, what's your most prized item in your collection?
Personally, aside from my small autograph collection, it would have to be my Oakland Day on the Green (1977) poster. I snagged it online a few years ago for about $50. :D Before I bought it, it was my most wanted FM collectible; now that title goes to a Rhiannon art print.

Same here- my absolute favorite item is my 1977 Day On The Green lithograph. I just love it because it's beautiful to look at. My parents bought it for me for Christmas about 15 years ago.

I would probably say its my Greatest Hits 24k gold cd that I bought probably about 16 years ago. I have it framed in my music room as I call it.
My other favorite is my Stevie Nicks signed tambourine that I won from her website about 14 years ago. I have that in a black shadow box.
Buckingham Nicks album signed by both Stevie and Lindsey at RRHOF when they were inducted.

A signed (by everyone except Christine McVie) copy of the 2002 'The Very Best Of Fleetwood Mac' CD, that 'Warner Brothers Music' had put up for auction for some charity cause, if I remember correctly.
Stevie-wise, a 'Wild Heart' tour gold ring made by her jeweller Henri David, and an inscribed signed photo that I got through her mail-lady Ginny Kamano.

My collection isn't overly exciting, but my most cherished one is my vinyl copy of Tango in the Night, which my parents got me for Christmas in 1987 (along with a new record/cassette player for my room). I'd been listening to their banged-up copy of Rumours on a little folding record player (meant for kids' records) for a few weeks after finding it in a back closet. Needless to say, putting on a brand new vinyl record with a set of decent speakers -- that album, no less -- just blew me away and I could stop listening to it. Even the few Tango songs they've remastered don't compare to it. Now, if I could just find that record player...

Mine is simple. It's my Super Deluxe Edition of Rumours.

Oh my god .Thats a good question.I love my whole collection.
I wish I had something signed.
1.My "Ultimate Box Set" I created with 20 years of photos in a decoupage chest inside and out of pictures I collected from 1977-1997. All my treasures are inside the chest.
2. My autograph picture Stevie signed of her tour book in 1994 back stage when I met her.
3. Mick Fleetwood signing my "25 Years"book after meeting him in 1996 at QVC and spending time talking about what was about to come.
........and so much more!

No kidding, I'm dying to know.........:eek:
My items would be a Lindsey Buckingham guitar pick, (yes I know he doesn't use them, but he has them stuck into his mike and my husband grabbed one that had fallen on the stage for me-it's white with a black LB on one side and a picture of a pick, with a red circle and line through the middle on the other side :lol:, I just think it's funny and kinda cool) and the drumsticks that Mick signed for my husband and I.

it's amusing how Lindsey turned it upside down to sign above his head, while John did not.
i don't collect stuff and don't care for signatures. but i don't mind having some picks:

Thanks! I've been thinking of selling it actually. I have the padded envelope that it came from Fleetwood Mac's management company somewhere and the letter that said "Congrats! You won!" :lol:

I really only collect the music. The books and autographs and posters aren't important to me, but the music is - so I guess I'd say the most prized item in my Fleetwood Mac collection is the whole collection. I did have a sealed copy of Mirage on vinyl, but I finally opened it last summer.

My concert tickets. I've saved them all
I'm glad I'm not the only one who saves and cherishes ticket stubs! I'm still forever upset that the friend who accompanied me to my first ever Mac show in 2013 ended up holding both our tickets and kept promising to get mine to me then eventually claimed he threw them out. That was my first Mac show! I have this great shot I got of Stevie at the show, blown up 12x12 in a shadow box and had planned to put my ticket in there. On the other hand I went to the Detroit show in 2014 with an aunt and uncle and I believe I have all three tickets. I save stubs from everything though. Used to scrapbook so I think it makes me a bit of a hoarder. ;)
As for my collection, well don't have much. Have one of the 24KG lithos. Think I'm also framing Stevie's Rolling Stone cover from this week's isse because I adore the photo (anyone know where I can get some gloves like those?!)
I'm a vinyl geek and my ultimate goal is to have every single album and 45 single by all generations and the band and everyone's solo albums (we're talking Bob Welch, Jeremy Spencer solo albums etc in addition to the obviousStevie, Lindsey, Christine and that random Mick Africa album- have an unopened version of that one lol). It's a full fledged hobby. I have a unopened Japanese import of one of Stevie's solo albums, think it's Bella Donna but uh my general record collection is so large right now and spread out in different boxes, I need to take inventory. Lol. That was a really cool find though. Have an unopened US edition of Rock a Little on vinyl too. I buy doubles in those cases so preserve the unopened ones but mostly I like to play vinyl so i geta second copy to play. Given my screenname I treasure my Go Your Own Way/ Silver Springs 45s (have at least two and a GYOW or two with whatever the alternate B side was). Also have two copies of Buckingham Nicks and I'm super protective of them. Took me awhile to win a bid on eBay then at the same shop I found the Japense import Stevie solo album, they had B/N for less than I paid online, in just as good or better (near mint really) condition. So I had to buy that second copy. Apologies to any Detroit area fans still trying to score it though. Lol.
Said record shop that had BN and the Japanese import also had two bootleg cds from Rumours and Tusk of studio stuff and demos. Maybe it was questionable to pay for them but they're for the most part not the extras that have been released on extended remasters, not even sure though of their origins. If anyone is ever interested I could tell you what I've got but I assume most of the bootleg fans here likely have all those tracks and a zillion more. (And at least a couple of the Tusk ones are on the Tusk extended cd) I do love those two CDs though, love the purity and rawness of demos.
I think that's about it beyond the usual vinyl. Pretty sure I had either a TISL or SYW (or both) cardboard ad thingy like they used to put up in all the record shops but it was years ago in my teen bedroom (used to always ask to have them from the music shops and one shop used to sell extras for a quarter) but those all disappeared some time ago.

During the pre holiday shopping time I was at Barnes and Noble and buying Mick's second memoir and I'm weird about my books anyway, never want to crease them and such and the way they were on display had damaged most on the table so I made this big silly deal about letting me carry the book out seperate from the rest of my purchase and what a Big Mac dork I am. Awesome guy at the check out starts speaking to me in Mac lyrics and goes and tells me he has a poster from's think a 76 Rolling Stone of the band and how they sell pretty high on eBay and I'm basically drooling, regret not trying to buy it off him especially since he said he was much more of a Zeppelin fan but loved 70s Rock in general (and was amused at mid-20s me saying I thought that was the best era of music by far). Sounds like this guy has just been holding onto all sorts of rock memorabilia for decades.

Honestly, the most cherished item I have is something anyone can get:the complete Blue Horizon recordings boxed set on cd.
I have a few photographs, some rare songbooks from the early 70s, a few tour t-shirts. Not much. But I'd give them all away to keep that box set.
My second most cherished item is also something anyone can get: the MP3 of the 1974 live version of Loved Another Woman. Everyone sounds incredible on it.

I have A LOT of stuff. My little home office is just a FM shrine. But, I love looking at the ticket stubs and remembering some of the things that happened in various places. How many zillions of times I had to hit ticketmaster before I scored those tickets, etc.
I like looking at this printed out copy of an old website I made (long since dead), where I posted reviews of my early TISL/SYW experiences in long, drawn out details that were, to me, hysterically funny in retrospect. And I have great pictures taken by friends (mine always came out fuzzy). And, mostly, memories of meeting both Stevie and Lindsey and having them be even nicer than I ever thought they'd be. That was pretty special. Not tangible but important.

I have a Lindsey signed set list from us WTTW Chicago gig that I got off stage and he signed it. Also, a personalized signed TISL poster that Stevie signed personally for me at the radio station my cousin worked at. He said no cameras and I obliged, but it was just Stevie and I in the room!!!

1. My friend who was working at a restaurant that Lindsey really liked in Palo Alto got his autograph for me in 1981 or 1982.
2. My Tush tour book.
3. My Bella Donna tour lilac t-shirt with just a tambourine and flowers on the front (by now threadbare and only worn to see Stevie in concert).

I have some rare-ish vinyl in my collection but I can't pick one. Just my Fleetwood Mac collection itself is prized. I couldn't imagine giving up any of those classic albums up to Tango.
Treasured memory: Last Christine concert before retirement, only seated about 20 feet away, shouting WE LOVE YOU CHRISTINE and she heard me and thanked me! So glad she rejoined but it's still a treasure of my memory just the same!

Besides memories of meetings backstage, I have a scarf Stevie gave to me personally - back in the 80's. :nod: One of the best memories was talking to her for a long time as she was telling me about Tiffany lamps and how to spot reproductions. It was very surreal.
