Performer: Fleetwood Mac
Distributor: RED Distribution Notes: PERFECT DAYS is a 12-song distillation of the material from the double-disc collection MADISON BLUES, chronicling the period in the early 1970's when keyboardist/singer Christine McVie (then Christine Perfect) was the main front-person for Fleetwood Mac. As they were still essentially blues-rockers at this time, Perfect's soulful belting on these live and studio recordings is as far from the silky pop tones of her later work with the band as the material is from the Mac's mainstream blockbusters later in the decade.
Making endless shifts in personnel and style, Fleetwood Mac went from being one of the most original British blues bands of the 1960s--under the leadership of Peter Green and Mick Fleetwood--to becoming purveyors of a smooth, masterful L.A. pop aesthetic that conquered the American airwaves during the '70s. Their most successful album, 1977's RUMOURS--featuring the group's most well-known lineup of Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, and Stevie Nicks--is one of the best-selling records of all time. Although never quite able to repeat that success, the band continued touring and recording off and on for the next three decades in various incarnations.
