NEW RELEASE Fleetwood Mac Mark 50th Anniversary of '75 Album

Fleetwood Mac will mark the 50th anniversary of their self-titled 1975 release with a few Rhino exclusive top-of-the-line audio variations, all available now to pre-order with a release date of August 8th.

  • FLEETWOOD MAC (RHINO HIGH FIDELITY) (SINGLES EDITION)
  • FLEETWOOD MAC (RHINO HIGH FIDELITY)
  • FLEETWOOD MAC (ATMOS)(BLU-RAY)
Pre-order at Rhino.com 



Released on July 11, 1975, Fleetwood Mac was the band’s tenth studio album and the second named after the group, sharing its title with their 1968 debut. Often referred to by fans as ‘The White Album,’ it also introduced Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks into the group’s core lineup, joining Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, and Christine McVie. The chemistry between the five was immediate—and transformative. The album’s sound marked a break from the band’s blues-based roots, pivoting toward a melodic, harmony-rich approach that would come to define a generation of FM radio.


The album, which has earned platinum status nine times by the RIAA, initiated a new era for the ensemble. Lovingly referred to as “The White Album” by fans, it introduced Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to the existing lineup: Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, and Christine McVie. 


Sonically, 1975’s Fleetwood Mac presented the synergetic fusion for the newly forged quintet. The set also marked a shift for the ensemble, who moved away from their initial blues-based roots sound to increasingly melodic, harmony-focused deliveries. Their efforts resulted in genre-defying hits, which make up the album and subsequent rereleases. 


Included on the newly revisited collection is the Christine McVie-penned “Over My Head,” the group’s first US Top 20 hit, in addition to fan favorites, “Rhiannon,” “Say You Love Me,” and “Landslide.” Upon its release, the set received moderate praise, but word of mouth and a heavy touring regimen resulted in No. 1 on the Billboard 200, 15 months after it dropped, and sales of over seven million copies. 


For fans of the band and the acclaimed album, the Blu-Ray Audio received a new Dolby ATMOS mix by Chris James, to give listeners a fully immersive experience. Also included is a 5.1 surround mix by original producer Ken Caillat and Claus Trelby.


Fleetwood Mac (Rhino High Fidelity) was cut from the original analog master tapes and pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Optima. This presentation of the iconic album was mastered by Kevin Gray. 


The releases boast high-quality glossy covers and “tip-on” jackets, an old-school aesthetic that evokes the golden age of vinyl.


  1. "Monday Morning"
  2. "Warm Ways"
  3. "Blue Letter"
  4. "Rhiannon"
  5. "Over My Head"
  6. "Crystal"
  7. "Say You Love Me"
  8. "Landslide"
  9. "World Turning"
  10. "Sugar Daddy"
  11. "I'm So Afraid"

This particular rendering will be limited to 5,000 numbered copies. 



A special version of the set will be set at 2,000, to preserve the specialty. It will also offer two replica 7-inch singles, mixes of “Over My Head” b/w “Rhiannon” and “Say You Love Me” b/w “Blue Letter.”

  1. "Monday Morning"
  2. "Warm Ways"
  3. "Blue Letter"
  4. "Rhiannon"
  5. "Over My Head"

2. “Say You Love Me” b/w “Blue Letter”




In addition to the updated album treatments, new liner notes written by Anthony DeCurtis will accompany the music collection. Speaking to the feeling of the era, Buckingham shared, “I think we all felt that we had grabbed a hold of something and that it was going to take us wherever it was going to take us.” He adds, “It was a great sign that we were destined for something.”


50th Anniversary Release - First-Ever Dolby Atmos Mix 


The Blu-ray audio edition features a new Dolby ATMOS mix by Chris James, delivering a fully immersive experience of this classic album. It also includes a 5.1 surround mix by original producer Ken Caillat and Claus Trelby.

Fleetwood Mac’s Chart Run Rolls On


Chart Update: June 20, 2025

Fleetwood Mac’s Chart Run Rolls On: Streaming Shifts, Vinyl Power, and a Comeback on Video

From the Top 40 to the Top of the Vinyl Charts—Fleetwood Mac Keep Finding New Ways to Win

Another week, another global check-in with Fleetwood Mac—and once again, the legendary band continues to chart like it’s their job (and frankly, they’re better at it than half of today’s streaming-first artists).

While some numbers dipped and others rose, the story this week isn’t just stability—it’s staying power, with a few surprise twists (including a sudden return to the UK Music Video Chart that deserves a moment of its own).

Let’s dive into how things moved since our June 13 update.


UK: Still a Fixture, Even as the Chain Slips (Slightly)

On the UK Top 100 Albums Chart, Fleetwood Mac’s positions haven’t budged:

  • #6 — 50 Years – Don’t Stop (same as last week)
  • #19 — Rumours (down from #18)

But beneath the surface, things are shifting. Rumours dropped slightly on streaming:

UK Top 100 Streaming Albums:

  • #3 — 50 Years – Don’t Stop (no change)
  • #20 — Rumours (down from #17)

UK Top 100 Album Sales:

  • #25 — Rumours (up from #28)

UK Top 40 Vinyl Albums:

  • #15 — Rumours (down from #13)

UK Top 100 Singles Chart:

  • #72 — Dreams (down from #53)
  • #94 — Everywhere (down from #77)
The Chain has dropped out of the Singles Top 100 but remains present on other charts.

UK Top 100 Streaming Songs:

  • #46 — Dreams
  • #62 — Everywhere
  • #93 — The Chain

UK Top 50 Music Video Chart:

  • #33 — The Dance (re-entry)
The 1997 concert film reappears on the UK Music Video Chart, possibly thanks to a viral moment or a social media boost.


USA: Rumours Rises on Vinyl, Streaming Holds Steady

Billboard 200 Albums:

  • #25 — Rumours (down from #24)
  • #120 — Greatest Hits (up from #127)

Top 100 Album Sales:

  • #24 — Rumours (up from #26)

Top 40 Vinyl Albums:

  • #11 — Rumours (up from #14)

Top 25 Indie Store Sales:

  • #19 — Rumours (new entry)

Top 50 Rock Albums:

  • #4 — Rumours (down from #3)
  • #22 — Greatest Hits (up from #23)

Top 50 Rock & Alternative Albums:

  • #5 — Rumours (down from #4)
  • #26 — Greatest Hits (up from #28)

Top 50 Streaming Albums:

  • #28 — Rumours (down from #27)

Top 50 Streaming Songs:

  • #30 — Dreams (up from #35)
While Dreams has lost momentum in the UK, it’s gaining strength in the U.S., perhaps sparked by yet another nostalgic moment or trend.

International: Canada, Ireland & Australia Stay Faithful

Canada Top 100 Albums:

  • #19 — Rumours (up from #22)
  • #97 — Greatest Hits (re-entry into the Top 100)

Ireland Top 100 Albums:

  • #5 — 50 Years – Don’t Stop (down from #4)
  • #23 — Rumours (down from #21)

Scotland Top 100 Albums:

  • #24 — Rumours (down from #23)

Australia Top 50 Albums:

  • #21 — Rumours (down from #17)

The Takeaway: Vinyl Climbs, Streaming Wobbles, Legacy Stays Locked

Fleetwood Mac are holding ground internationally and climbing in physical formats, even as some streaming metrics soften week-over-week. This kind of chart performance for a band with no new music, no active tour, and no front-page scandal is virtually unheard of.

The re-entry of The Dance on the UK Music Video Chart is a cherry on top—a reminder that in 2025, Fleetwood Mac aren’t just relevant… they’re multi-format monsters.

Their legacy isn’t just being preserved. It’s growing—algorithm by algorithm, record by record.

Fifty years in, and the only thing that’s slowed is the BPM on “Landslide.” Everything else? Still charting.

Fleetwood Mac Take Over Global Charts

Fleetwood Mac Take Over Global Charts With Two Albums, Four Singles, and One Undeniable Legacy

“Rumours” Reigns Supreme, “50 Years – Don’t Stop” Powers Forward, and Classic Hits Re-enter the Conversation

It’s official: Fleetwood Mac are having yet another moment—and they didn’t even have to record a new album to do it.


Nearly 50 years after Rumours first rewrote the rulebook on pop-rock, Fleetwood Mac are storming charts across the globe this week like it’s 1977 all over again (except now, they’re doing it with streaming numbers, vinyl sales, and download charts most of them probably never imagined). The band currently boasts two albums in the UK Top 20four singles on the UK Top 100, and chart presence in eight countries across more than a dozen different categories.


So what exactly is going on? Let’s break it down.


UK: Rumours Still Rules, But "Don’t Stop" Is Shifting Gears


On the UK Top 100 Albums Chart, Fleetwood Mac are pulling double duty:

  • #6 — 50 Years – Don’t Stop (down two, but still holding strong)
  • #18 — Rumours (down six, but still very much in the game)

That's two albums in the Top 20, including a career-spanning compilation and an album that’s older than most of the UK Top 40 itself. Not bad for a band that hasn’t toured in years.


Even more impressively, they're soundtracking British life this week across multiple singles charts. On the UK Top 100 Singles:

  • #53 — “Dreams” (up 10 spots — someone’s been on TikTok again)
  • #77 — “Everywhere” (up 8 spots — still a perennial favorite)
  • #95 — “The Chain” (a re-entry — cue the F1: Drive to Survive fans)

And on the UK Streaming Songs chart:

  • #40 — “Dreams”
  • #54 — “Everywhere”
  • #70 — “The Chain”
  • #93 — “Go Your Own Way” (re-entry — possibly due to a breakup montage or two)

Meanwhile, on UK album-specific charts:

  • #6 — 50 Years – Don’t Stop (Streaming Albums)
  • #17 — Rumours (Streaming Albums)
  • #28 — Rumours (Album Sales)
  • #42 — Rumours (Downloads)
  • #13 — Rumours (Vinyl Albums — because of course it’s on vinyl)

In short, Fleetwood Mac are streaming, selling, and spinning across every UK chart that matters.



Ireland & Scotland: Celtic Devotion Runs Deep


The Irish clearly know a classic when they hear one. On the Ireland Top 100 Albums:

  • #4 — 50 Years – Don’t Stop
  • #21 — Rumours

And on the Singles Chart:

  • #52 — “Dreams”
  • #80 — “Everywhere”
  • #95 — “The Chain” (yet another re-entry)

Scotland’s not far behind. Rumours holds the #23 spot on the Scottish Top 100 Albums Chart, proving the band’s tartan appeal remains intact.



North America: The U.S. Remains Loyal


Over in the U.S., Fleetwood Mac’s chart grip is equally strong:

  • #24 — Rumours (Billboard 200, up one spot)
  • #127 — Greatest Hits

Streaming and sales metrics paint a similarly impressive picture:

  • #26 — Rumours (Album Sales)
  • #27 — Rumours (Streaming Albums)
  • #14 — Rumours (Vinyl Albums)

On rock-specific charts, the band sits comfortably:

  • #3 — Rumours (Rock Albums)
  • #4 — Rumours (Rock & Alternative Albums)
  • #23 & #28 — Greatest Hits (both categories)

And on the Streaming Songs chart?

  • #35 — “Dreams”, still floating on its dreamy revival wave.

In CanadaRumours climbs to #22 on the Top Albums chart.


Fleetwood Mac may be competing against Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift on the Billboard charts, but they’re doing it with songs recorded during the Carter administration.



Rest of the World: Rumours Circulate Far and Wide


Australia keeps it consistent at #17, while Austria welcomes the album back at #71 — its return to the Top 100 marking a quiet but clear resurgence in Central Europe.


All this activity across countries and formats reveals one major theme: Fleetwood Mac aren’t just surviving—they’re thriving across formatsgenerations, and algorithms.



So, What’s Fueling the Fire?


Some chalk it up to syncs in TV shows. Others point to TikTok nostalgia. A few blame Gen Z discovering the band through their parents’ records and never looking back. Whatever the cause, the result is clear: Fleetwood Mac is charting globally in a way most modern artists would envy.


And with the 50th anniversary of Rumours just two years away, we may only be in the opening act of yet another Mac renaissance.


If this is what "retirement" looks like for Fleetwood Mac, we hope they never stop.

Nearly 50 Years Later, Fleetwood Mac’s Masterpiece Shows No Signs of Fading

Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours Defies Time Once Again With Historic Return to the Top of the Charts


Nearly 50 Years Later, Fleetwood Mac’s Masterpiece Shows No Signs of Fading

In a musical landscape dominated by short attention spans and algorithm-driven trends, few albums have managed to defy time quite like Rumours. Released in 1977, Fleetwood Mac’s iconic album was instantly hailed as a pop-rock masterclass—one that would go on to define a generation. Today, almost half a century later, Rumours is proving that classics don’t just age well—they evolve, endure, and sometimes, even outperform themselves.

This week, Rumours has made headlines once more by breaking into the Top 30 on Billboard’s Top Streaming Albums chart—reaching a new all-time peak of No. 30, up five positions from the previous week. It marks a significant moment for Fleetwood Mac, as the legendary band has not only maintained a presence on major charts for decades but is now riding the crest of a digital revival.

A Viral Spark Fuels the Climb

The latest surge in Rumours’ streaming numbers is widely attributed to a perfect storm of nostalgic social media content, a renewed interest in classic rock vinyl, and the viral resurgence of “The Chain” on TikTok, which has soundtracked everything from emotional breakup montages to motivational gym edits. While “Dreams” has enjoyed viral fame in recent years—most notably thanks to a longboarding cranberry juice moment in 2020—this time it’s the entire album seeing widespread rediscovery.

Fleetwood Mac’s label, Warner Records, also recently launched a digital campaign spotlighting the 1975 self titled Fleetwood Mac album’s 50th anniversary this year, fueling renewed curiosity and pushing longtime fans to revisit the bands catalog.

Chart Dominance Across the Globe

In addition to its new streaming peak, Rumours is holding firm across nearly every major Billboard album chart. The set remains steady at No. 3 on Top Rock Albums, No. 4 on Top Rock & Alternative Albums, and No. 26 on the Billboard 200, marking its 634th week on the all-genre chart—an astonishing feat for any album, let alone one released in the ‘70s.

On the Top Album Sales chart, Rumours moves slightly from No. 20 to No. 23, and on Vinyl Albums, it maintains a top 15 position, now sitting at No. 12.

Internationally, the love affair with Rumours is just as strong. In the UK, the album climbs to No. 21 on the Top 100 Albums Chart, while in Canada, it rises to No. 25. The album is even gaining momentum in Australia, where it jumps from No. 31 to No. 25 on the ARIA Top 50 Albums Chart.

Meanwhile, the companion compilation 50 Years – Don’t Stop continues its own run, reaching No. 6 in the UK and No. 4 in Ireland.

A Legacy Rewritten in Real Time

Originally certified 2x Platinum just months after its release, Rumours has since been certified 21x Platinum in the U.S., with global sales surpassing 45 million copies. Its continued relevance in the streaming era is not only a testament to the songwriting and production but also to the emotional intensity that defined its creation. From the heartbreak of “Go Your Own Way” to the spiritual strength of “Dreams,” the album remains a mirror for human relationships—brilliantly fractured, yet undeniably beautiful.

“Every time someone hits play on Rumours, it becomes relevant again,” said a Marketing executive in a recent interview. “That’s not nostalgia—that’s timelessness.”

What’s Next for Fleetwood Mac?

With the previously announced Fleetwood Mac Documentary expected from Apple Original Films in 2026 —Fleetwood Mac’s influence is poised to grow even more in the coming years. Although the band is currently on an indefinite hiatus following the 2022 passing of Christine McVie, individual members like Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood have hinted at new solo projects, and fans remain hopeful for some sort of reunion of the surviving members of the band in the future.

Until then, Rumours continues to tell its story—one stream, one chart, and one generation at a time.

Here's a rundown of album charts in North America, Australia and in the UK (previous week in brackets)
