Fleetwood Mac Still Has Freshness For '70s Crowd
Loathe your Southern California '70s rock or love it, there's no denying the Fleetwood Mac reunion has far more going for it than your run-of-the-mill nostalgia tour.
That the Mac still boasts uncommon commercial clout is evident in everything from the popularity of the new live album The Dance to the highways jammed with Volvos and BMWs making their way to the sold-out Waterfront Entertainment Centre in Camden on Friday.
Of course, the convening of the lineup responsible for 1975's Fleetwood Mac, 1977's Rumours and 1979's Tusk - drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie, keyboardist Christine McVie, guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and vocalist Stevie Nicks - for the first time since 1987 is enough to send a generation on a sentimental journey.
