After changing the landscape of pop music in the 1970s with their unparalleled folk rock sound, the band and their songs have become integral mainstays of the global music scene. From legendarily soul-baring tunes like “Landslide” and “Dreams” to the inimitable rock grooves of “Go Your Own Way” and “Rhiannon,” their dynamism and knack for earnestly vibey song-craft has endured through everything that’s come since.
So, American Songwriter put together a list of Fleetwood Mac’s 10 greatest hits. Compiled based on data from Billboard charts, streaming analytics, record sales and more, the following songs are the definitive greatest hits of Fleetwood Mac:
Not crazy about this list. I know this sounds like rock-snobbery but limiting FM to the Buckingham-Nicks era is very, well, limiting. I saw them in between Rhiannon and Rumors. They were fantastic AND they played the back catalogue with authority and passion – Oh Well, Green Mahalishi and Station Man.
