Success in the music business has always been a long shot. Those who do break through usually do so with a sound and style that is fresh and unique and all their own. With that in mind, Gary Wenstrup will take you off the beaten path. . .
Fleetwood Mac: The Chain … Broken?
This modest blues band launched in the mid-1960s, achieved monumental success in the mid-1970s, and still makes headlines today. Using interview and performance video, we’ll trace the band’s career with a focus on their blockbuster album Rumours and the band’s classic line-up of Stevie Nicks, Lindsay Buckingham, Christine McVie, John McVie and Mick Fleetwood. It’s a fascinating journey of failed romantic relationships that fuel music of intensity and warmth. Fleetwood Mac is a soap opera set to music!
