Fleetwood Mac #2 on the ARIA Albums chart

Rumours, Fleetwood Mac's most commercially successful (and best) album is still paying dividends, after an episode of Glee bumped the album to #2 on the ARIA Albums chart.

The 1977 album was only held off the top spot by the juggernaut that is Adele, whose album 21 has held the top spot for four weeks.

Rumours was recorded during a tumultuous time in the band's personal lives, with Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham separating, and John and Christine McVie divorcing. In addition to this, Mick Fleetwood was in the process of divorcing his wife.

The personal tensions made for a classic album, which has sold over $40 million copies to date. It has sold twelve times Platinum in Australia, with sales of over 850,000 copies.
