Fleetwood Mac fans are some of the most passionate music fans I know. And Rumours is their Holy Grail. Really you should listen to this album the way it was intended to be listened to: from beginning to end. But I like to skip halfway into it to Track 7 first and then dart around from there. “The Chain” gave Fleetwood Mac an edge. Verse-to-verse harmonies. Slow, driving beats. The guitar solo in the reprise. And the dramatic pause. These are signature moments in classic rock history.
“And if, you don't love me now, you will never love me again. I can still hear you saying, you would never break the chain.”
