Fleetwood Mac - The Pious Bird Of Good Omen (2025 Reissue)

Anyone unfamiliar with the early Fleetwood Mac, when they were led by the consummate guitarist and songwriter Peter Green, would do well to start here with this remarkable 1969 collection. It is comprised of their initial four non-album UK singles and their B-sides, a song from their self-titled debut album, two tracks from their second album, Mr. Wonderful, and two pieces by blues artist Eddie Boyd, featuring Fleetwood Mac, and sourced from Boyd’s Blue Horizon album, 7936 South Rhodes. Capturing the essence of the band during this period, it’s a compelling document of their unique fusion of Chicago and British blues. Cuts like ‘Albatross,’ ‘Black Magic Woman,’ and ‘I Believe My Time Ain't Long’ are enduring classics and among their very finest work. Take a stroll through some of the best blues-rock ever made, music which laid the groundwork for one of the world's most beloved bands before their global breakthrough the following decade with Rumours.
