In 1997, the members of Fleetwood Mac —Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood, Christine McVie, John McVie and Stevie Nicks — reunited to commemorate the anniversary of their phenomenally successful album Rumours. Filmed over three nights in an intimate setting at a sound stage in Los Angeles, the band performed songs that have since become among the best known in rock history, including “Don’t Stop,” “The Chain,” “Go Your Own Way,” “Dreams” and “You Make Loving Fun” as well as other favorites such as “Rhiannon,” “Say You Love Me,” “Sara” and “Tusk.”

With the release of Rumours in 1977, the group achieved unparalleled success both critically and commercially. Rumours became one of the best-selling albums of all-time, remaining at #1 on the Billboard album charts for 31 consecutive weeks and receiving a Grammy Award for Album of the Year.
