I wanna get into Pre-Rumours

[Almost Simon]

If you're starting out looking back to the 1967-1974, pre-Rumours years I would start here. A great compilation. Not all encompassing but a very good starting point. Plus its cheap to buy:



1. Albatross
2. Black Magic Woman
3. Need Your Love So Bad
4. My Heart Beat Like A Hammer
5. Rollin' Man
6. Green Manalishi (With The Two Pronged Crown)
7. Man Of The World
8. Something Inside Me
9. Looking For Somebody
10. Oh Well
11. Rattlesnake Shake
12. Merry Go Round
13. I Loved Another Woman
14. Need Your Love Tonight
15. Worried Dream
16. Dragon Fly
17. Stop Messin' Around
18. Shake Your Moneymaker
19. I Would Rather Go Blind
20. Albatross

If you like what you hear you can then check out the various albums and compilations from the 1967-1970 Peter Green era.

Beyond that you're into Bob Welch world and for me the best album is this one. 'Future Games' from 1971. The 'Rumours' of the middle period Mac (although not all would agree with that verdict):



1. Woman Of 1000 Years
2. Morning Rain
3. What A Shame
4. Future Games
5. Sands Of Time
6. Sometimes
7. Lay It All Down
8. Show Me A Smile
