This poll makes more sense to people who have read all books about FM bio, but everybody is welcome to vote.
And I know there are more books about Fleetwood Mac, many of them not so "official", but as I remember these books of the poll were commented several times in The Ledge. So let's see which one is the favorite.

I probably like Mick's better, BUT think CAH's is from an outsiders point of view, and I feel far more revealing(of course neither book is 100% truthful).

Each book appeals to a different side of the palette... Ken's book is probably the most accurate, Carol Ann's is by far the most entertaining, and Mick's is probably the most encompassing. I have Bob Brunning's book somewhere, but I don't recall it being able to keep my attention. If I could only read one of these books ever again, it's probably be Carol Ann's. It's just enjoyable to read, and is the one that really gives you the feeling that you're peeking behind the curtain.

Mick's. love reading funny little episodes in it, like driving around in the beat up cars on FM 1975 tour, with the windows rolled down and music blasting, loud.

I didn't vote b/c I have only read Mick's and am 1/2 way through Making Rumours.
I will say this however, I agree with Mick's little episodes. When he is describing driving up to Sound City with the girls in the back seat {and groceries flying out the back window of the station wagon (my envision, not Micks)} up and around the curvy LA streets. The tale is described so vividly, I can hear the opening horns to "Heroes" play. I have always thought that a book that can hold my attention and make me visualize the scene would make a great movie. ![]() |
