The ultimate collection from one of rock’s most successful groups, Fleetwood Mac. With more than twice the music of their top-selling 1988 Greatest Hits, this comprehensive two-disc set gathers 36 tracks spanning 1975-1997, including hits, classic album cuts, live recordings, and the recently out-of-print “Silver Springs.” The first CD is enhanced and features footage from the making of Fleetwood Mac’s 2003 studio album. This is the band's first new studio release with Stevie and Lindsey in 15 years! The enhancement also provides a link to a private website where fans can see more exclusive footage, plus lyrics, multi-media content, archival photos and much more.

Rounded out by Mick Fleetwood and former paramours John and Christine McVie, this "classic" Mac line-up lasted for seven albums and created timeless material often fueled by romantic turmoil within its ranks. With Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, and Christine McVie all serving as singer-songwriters, there were plenty of hits to go around. | | Ably displacing 1998's GREATEST HITS package, this two-CD set features plenty of well-known radio hits starting with cuts from the Mac's 1975 self-titled smash ("Monday Morning," "Rhiannon," and "Say You Love Me") on through the live 1997 reunion album THE DANCE ("I'm So Afraid," "Big Love"). In between, the wealth of solid material boggles the mind and includes classics found on 1977's classic RUMOURS ("Go Your Own Way," "Don't Stop"), 1979's TUSK (title track, "Sara"), and 1982's MIRAGE ("Gypsy," "Hold Me"). Equally engaging are slightly more obscure cuts like "Paper Doll" and "Silver Springs" (originally found on the out-of-print box set 25 YEARS: THE CHAIN). |

| | Professional Reviews | | Rolling Stone (11/28/02, p.94)
- 5 stars out of 5 - "...[The album] showcases the results of having three strong songwriters and a willingness to spend months in the studio sweating the smallest details..."Q (Magazine)
(p.120)
- 4 stars out of 5 -- "The soundtrack to millions of lives in a way that most bands can only dream of, the proof is here and still makes often ravishing listening." |
