Inside the making of one of the biggest-selling albums of all time: Fleetwood Macs Rumours Fleetwood Macs classic 1977 Rumours album topped the Billboard 200 for thirty-one weeks and won the Album of the Year Grammy. More recently, Rolling Stone named it the twenty-fifth greatest album of all time and the hit TV series Glee devoted an entire episode to songs from Rumours, introducing it to a new generation. Now, for the first time, Ken Caillat, the albums co-producer, tells the full story of what really went into making Rumours-from the endless partying and relationship dramas to the creative struggles to write and record You Make Loving Fun, Dont Stop, Go Your Own Way, The Chain, and other timeless tracks. Tells the fascinating, behind-the-music story of the making of Fleetwood Macs Rumours, written by the producer who saw it all happen Filled with new and surprising details, such as Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckinghams screaming match while recording You Make Loving Fun, how the band coped with the pressures of increasing success, how the master tape nearly disintegrated, and the incredible attention paid to even the tiniest elements of songs, from Lindsey playing a chair to Mick breaking glass Includes eighty black-and-white photographs Review Ken Caillat is an active record producer nominated for two Grammys and his Daughter, Colbie Caillat is a 2 time Grammy nominee and has just released her 5th album this week, a Christmas album titled Christmas in the Sand. Ken has studios in Santa Monica and Westlake Village, California. This might be the best rock and roll biography I have ever read; perhaps one of the best books period I have read in a long time. Maybe its Caillats easy manner, his perfect recall, the way he completely opens up about the mid 70s in California & brings the reader along for the journey. But Making Rumours is also about creating the music & here is where Caillat shines as he lovingly illustrates in detail how the songs of this seminal Grammy-winning album were birthed. Making Rumours is a insightful and thorough read about a pivotal time...in one mans life. ~ Ralph Greco, VINTAGE ROCK I have just finished reading your book, thank you for taking me on a journey behind the making of my all-time favourite album. Of all the books I have read over the years this stands out in my top five music books of all time. Thanks again and I am off to play the album one more time :) Peter Lewryeditor: Johnny Cash-The Man in Black Producer-engineer Ken Calliat tells the story behind Rumours like a taut Hollywood screenplay, rich with crisis, conflict and confrontation in possibly the best book yet about the recording studio. One of the best-selling albums of all time is now one of the greatest rock stories of all time. Joel SelvinSan Francisco Chronicle, Senior Pop Music Correspondent The best book Ive read. I was a little sad to finish it. It seems that making that album was everything I hoped it would have been, plus some. You obviously had a lot to do with the magic of it, but it is definitely the telling of that story from your point of view that is the true magic of the book. I found myself helping you fine tune and press down the 2 buttons of the 24 track several times. I had Rumours on lightly in the background while I read much of the book. The album sounds just a bit different now...and somehow even better than before. Thanks Ken :) Bob Barger From the Author Rumours by Fleetwood Mac - the album absolutely changed my life, and yours, too. Containing brilliant songs byLindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie, its a classic among classics. Producer Ken Caillat has a brilliant book coming out on the making of Rumours, but ahead of its release, he spoke to me about how he tracked the mega disc cut-by-cut.
