Favorite Pre-Rumours Album???

[Musicman408]

So, we all know that Fm had a great run before the Rumours line-up, so my question is what your all's fave Pre-Rumours album is.

Feel free to discuss.

I believe mine is Mystery To Me. First Pre R. one that I heard, and have been in love with it ever since.

Much Love,
Ethan

Dear Folks,

I do not know if you are aware of it but there are other albums inbetween PGs Fleetwood Mac (dog and dustbin) and Then Play On
my real favorite is Mr Wonderful, but there is Fleetwood Mac in Chicago (a very close second) English Rose which is really half Mr Wonderful,half singles that were not on Mr Wonderful. This does not include The biggest thing since Colosus which is minus Mic Fleetwood and Plus Otis Spann and his drummer.
People should be able to vote on those too.

and there is the 'original fleetwood mac' which though released in the 70's collects recordings that pre-date 'pg's fleetwood mac' (correct?).

and the uk-issued 'fleetwood mac's greatest hits' which includes uk singles up to 'dragon fly'. only pre 1974 record with man of the world, oh well (not originally on uk 'then play on') and the green manalishi...

adhering to poll rules: original uk 'then play on'

following to vinnie c.'s rules: 'fleetwood mac in chicago'

zero's rules: uk 'fleetwood mac's greatest hits'

I still miss my favorite:
Shrine 69

This is such a difficult question...but here are my top five:

Kiln House (most favorite)
Future Games
Then Play On
Fleetwood Mac in Chicago
Mystery To Me

Oh, it's really a toss-up.

I'll use my standard line regarding ALL Fleetwood Mac albums:

"My favorite Fleetwood Mac album is the one I'm listening to at any particular moment".

That said, from their inception to 1974, I keep going back to either English Rose or Mystery To Me the most. With Heroes Are Hard To Find & Then Play On close seconds.

And, I just realized, I DO play Future Games an awful lot...especially on Sunday mornings. It's a great "lazy wake up" album.

Mystery To Me is my favorite Fleetwood Mac album. As far as the other pre-Rumours albums, these are my favorites, in order:

1. Mystery To Me
2. Heroes Are Hard To Find
3. Bare Trees
4. Future Games

I used to use the Beach Boys for that Sunday morning wake up stuff Steve

Bare Trees. Its actually my second favourite Mac album, after Tusk...

[michelle2677]

I went with M2M by default. I only have a few P-R albums, and this one is my fav out of those.

What albums don't you own Michelle? I could help you out...

[jbrownsjr]

Heroes is my fav album out of all the FM albums

[GateandGarden]

I'd have to say Mystery to Me, and then Bare Trees and Pious Bird of Good Omen are tied for second.

[markolas]

Only ones I've heard are Peter Green's FM, Then Play On, and Bare Trees. Out of those, I like PG's FM the best. TPO is okay, a bit too loud for my taste - I like Rattlesnake Shake a lot, though. Bare Trees is more or less unlistenable to me, and I can't see myself getting anymore albums from the Bob Welch period. Kiln House is a possibility at some point, though, as are the other Peter Green-era albums.

Really? I love Danny Kirwan's songs on that album. Some of my favorite FM songs there. Christine's aren't bad, either.
