How many of you?

[iamstevienicks]

Strive to own EVERYTHING fleetwood mac related?

That includes Bekka Bramlett, Dave Mason and the likes solo albums, appearances on other peoples records etc

I to be honest want everything :o

Im only young so, can work my way through till im an oap ;)

[FiercestCalmSea]

I am always on the lookout for things pertaining to Rumours era and before...nothing to do with Bekka,Billy etc...they just don't interest me at all..while i think they are talented,they merely helped keep FM somewhat in flux through the hard times until most of the true members found their way back.

[chiliD]

Oh, should I? Ok, I will.

While they may not interest you, if they WERE a member of Fleetwood Mac, they were TRUE members of Fleetwood Mac...so Billy Burnette and Bekka Bramlett and Rick Vito and Dave Mason and all the pre-1975 crew all COUNT. Nobody (except Bob Brunning) was there just to "merely help keep FM somewhat in flux through the hard times". Nobody was a "placecard", they were actual living, breathing members of Fleetwood Mac.

From 1987 until 1997, there was no guarantee that Lindsey Buckingham ever wanted anything to do with "Fleetwood Mac" again...therefore, after 1990, there was no guarantee that Stevie Nicks would be interesting in "anything Mac" (saying that if Lindsey wasn't there, she didn't want to be, either)...Christine had already proved in 1994 that she meant what she said at the end of the BTM tour about NOT TOURING, but that she would be open to recording with Fleetwood Mac again.

I myself am a Rumours lineup enthusiast. If the song has Lindsey, Christine or Stevie on lead, I want it. No disrespect to fans of the other lineups, but I just never bonded with their sound.

Sweet jesus:::ducks:::: Ok ok,...so they are true members..i just happen to not like them at all and i was trying not to come right out and say it...damn...

[Mac Fan]

I've always wanted to have everything by FM, but I know it's going to take me ages. I'm only young and have only started collecting sincr July. During that time, I think I've only got 15 FM albums and 1 Stevie album.

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

I don't feel the need to won everything...I have other priorities in life. I try to get what I can but my main interest is the rumours line up, especially Stevie

I'm with ChiliD & Iamstevienicks. I strive to have it all, ALL 16 members, yep, Bruns too. I've got about 20 or so items to go before I am "caught up" with the audio side of things but some of those things are SO rare, I am not optimistic about finding them but hopefully someday... :)

I don't have everything Fleetwood Mac, but I have most of it. There's just some of the old Peter Green stuff that I'm missing, and that's OK since that's my least favorite version of the band anyway. But, I am trying to get everything that Christine is on both with Fleetwood Mac and solo and I'm almost there.

[iamstevienicks]

My favourite little things to get at the moment on ebay are the french,german and japanese picture singles which are so much nicer than the Uk and US counterparts and ultimately very different!!

Also casette singles and casette albums (some are quite tough to find)

Yeah I know, tell me about it, :) my SN "Blue denim" cassette single (with "Mirror miror") broke so I'm on the prowl for a replacement one but can't find one anywhere.

Anyone know a good place I can find an original in playable condition of SN's BD w/MM cass single? (and yes, I've been trying ebay/GEMM etc.) Any help would be great,thanks in advanace. :)

[Mac Fan]

Just wonderding, but are there many 7" singles? I've only found 12" of Everywhere, but parents don't(well, I don't think they do) have a record player.(I would have got it if they did)

[wetcamelfood]

Seven inch singles are generally more common than the twelve inch singles but if you meant of "Blue denim", I don't know as it's only the cassette single that I'm interested in of that since it's the only format that has "Mirror miror" on it (in other words it's not on the BD CD single etc.).

I was talking about singles in general, not just Blue denim.

[Janet]

Well I used to be that way but its way too expensive.

I was on just to get the Rumours line up ...and Stevie, Christine, Lindsey solo.

But thats hard. I have alot of singles...12 inch records and the small records, I have cd singles I got off Ebay, I have actual records and cds of course. I have tons of magazines, and pics.

My thing was videos, to get every single video out there...but that even proved too hard. I have like 60-75 videos ( I really should count) but I am scared that I will never get to see them because of the dvd thing happening!

Now Im just trying to get everything on cd I can, demos, outtakes, b sides, albums , everything. I want pre and post rumours line up as well. I have lots of tapes but now they are obsolete so I just have to keep starting over.

But yeah, I want everything..I really do!

I strive to get anything Fleetwood Mac that I can get my hands on from ANY era, but I especially look for things that are 1960s Fleetwood Mac through the Stevie/Lindsey era. In my humble opinion though, it is important to listen to and collect things from all the eras, because it makes you a more well rounded fan, and it helps you to better understand the group as a whole. The Mac (of any era) is the Mac; you got to love' um! :]

Not having a record player is of no consequence

I agree, although I don't really look for the CDs from the 1960s.(I'm not much of a Peter Green era fan)

It's my mission to own everything FM related that has kept me from throwing my "Tango In The Night" video into the bin!

And why would you want to throw your TITN video in the bin?
I'd love to own everything by FM, but some of their stuff is really hard to get hold of.

[sara1998]

I collect strictly from the Rumours lineup. I agree with jwys_soapbox, I never really bonded with other versions of the bands sound.

It's the worst concert video I've ever seen in my life. I don't like the camera angles, I don't like the way it's been edited, I hate the unnecessary fade-ins/outs and unnecessary "Stevie close-ups" (and she wasn't exactly looking her best at that point of her life), and the whole show just has a really artificial / shallow feel to it. On top of that, with the exception of "Oh Well", I don't like any of the songs on it (i.e those versions). Rick and Billy's version of "Oh Well" is the only song on the video that I've watched all the way through more than once, as they pull it off really well. However, even that version of "Oh Well" is inferior to other performances of it on the same tour.

Knowning me, I won't get that video, partly because Lindsey isn't in it and I can't find it.

[Vianna]

I am really only interested in the Peter Green line-up and the Rumours line-up-I have pretty much everything I want or have time to really enjoy-maybe when I retire I'll go into collecting more=:-)
