Inside the making of one of the biggest-selling albums of all time:
Fleetwood Mac's Rumours
Fleetwood Mac's classic 1977 Rumours album topped the Billboard 200
for thirty-one weeks and won the Album of the Year Grammy. More
recently, Rolling Stone named it the twenty-fifth greatest album of all
time and the hit TV series Glee devoted an entire episode to songs from
Rumours, introducing it to a new generation. Now, for the first time,
Ken Caillat, the album's co-producer, tells the full story of what
really went into making Rumours--from the endless partying and
relationship dramas to the creative struggles to write and record ""You
Make Loving Fun,"" ""Don't Stop,"" ""Go Your Own Way,"" ""The Chain,""
and other timeless tracks.
