Starting point is 00:00:03 Now, I already know what you're saying to me right now. What in the world are you doing covering an album from February 4th of the year, 977? Well, ladies and gentlemen, I have a very direct answer for you. As when it comes to an Apple original film, when it comes to the members of the group also posting on their Instagram with handwritten messages, messages, quoting their 1973 Buckingham, Nick's song, Frozen Love,
Starting point is 00:00:44 as Nick's wrote, quote, and if I go forward, and Buckingham wrote, quote, I'll meet you there. Now, that sparked a possible reunion. And, of course, people are clamoring for new music, which, you know, as far as the latest release, I was looking at the most successful, for album i couldn't believe my eyes when i looked at the year i ain't gonna lie to you but when i looked
Starting point is 00:01:08 at the recent releases guess what they do have certain tracks like crying the songs of danny curwin that was the latest release and that was may 16th right and of course it's not the original group apparently there's been different iterations and i say apparently i'm about to go through the list right now there there are mick fleetwood this is the 1977 version the original dog OGs Mick Fleetwood, John McVeigh, Christine McVie, Stevie Nix, Lindsay Buckingham, and then from 1967 and 1974, the early members, oh, so those are really the O, okay, so these are the OG members, Peter Green, Jeremy, Spencer, Danny Kerwin, and Bob Welch, which Peter, Jeremy, Danny, and Bob all played a guitar and were voting.
Starting point is 00:02:03 at certain points but Peter Green was the co-founder but he left in 1970 now why did he leave the world may never know as far as the other members when you come to the rumors era the album that's currently believe it or not but the album from 1977 in the year of 2025 is currently the 30th no the 20th most played album in the world like like actually thinking about longevity, I think the definition may have to have a picture of Fleetwood Mac in it, because this is insane. I don't think I've ever covered a track or album as far back as this, because obviously notorious mass effect, we talk about music and gaming IPs that notoriously impact the masses. But when you are impacted the masses, decades in, it's a different level
Starting point is 00:02:59 of respect that you've garnered from your fan base. Let me just put it like that. currently Steve Nix is on tour he's going to be in Brooklyn New York August 8th and his tour is ending August 25th in Hartford I think that's Connecticut let me make sure you know it can be spreading fake news so yeah I was right that's Connecticut so and then it includes a show and he has a show slated for October 18th in Atlantic City not the only reason i let you know that is because i know there's some dark there's probably some die hard fleetwood fans out there wondering if they're currently doing anything they could support and one of the members as far as stevie nicks is still on tour now that being with that out the way
Starting point is 00:03:49 the main thing i want to get into was future chart predictions of course as when it comes to the track off of the rumors album which the rumors album currently like already set in stone as the 20th most played album in the world. Then when you go to the singles, there's nowhere to be found. But that is what I'm here for as far as future chart predictions. As when I'm looking at it, for August 9th of this year, it is slated to be the 34th most played track in the world. But that was future chart predictions as far as August 9th.
Starting point is 00:04:28 Now you're probably wondering how in the world are you just making such a resurgence decades later? But like I said, the album, well, not the album, the Apple original film is coming up soon. And it's a full documentary on Fleetwood Mac directed by Frank Marshall, a five-time Academy Award nominee in Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award winner. And it's going to be titled, It's Not a Rumor, because, you know, based off the album, y'all get the point. Come on now. And then it features Mick. Fleetwood John McVeigh and so the members Christine McVeigh Lindsay Buckingham and Stevie Nicks shares their stories in their own words for the first time the film
Starting point is 00:05:17 a collaboration between the Kennedy slash Marshall Company and Whitehorse Pictures now of course diving deep into this 50 plus year journey like Apple is probably going to do effectively I believe something may have to be left out as far as what was normal back then because they're going to get canceled. You know what I'm saying? Like, I didn't want to say it, but somebody got saying and who better than me, right? You know what I'm saying? As far as pointing out the obvious, 1977 was a long time ago. It was a long time ago for the people who only listen to the audio version. I was using my different scenes. So with that being said, you know,
Starting point is 00:06:04 I'm going to give them some grace and just leave my coverage there because If I get into what they was probably doing back then, and you know, we're going to start telling some truth. And for right now, I just want to let y'all know that their album rumors, a 1977 album, goodness, is currently charting in 2025, and their track dreams is slated to be, let me look again.
Starting point is 00:06:29 As far as future chart predictions for August 9th, it is slated to be the 30, the 34th most played track in the world so that being said click my link to you in my bio let me know one of my social media is what do you think about fleetwood mac what iteration is your favorite as far as the group and ultimately can you believe that with the help of an apple original film uh almost century old band is still making a resurgence in 2025
