a frothy romp through the golden age of rock with a fleetwood mac-lite band who are all largely insufferable. i do like the oral history format, and TJR does a good job of showing just how many people it takes to get that juggernaut of a touring band moving. maybe this is a me problem, but i would have liked to have read more about the music biz and sat with some real nostaglia rather than put up with a dairylea cheese love triangle. a good book to spend an afternoon with, and certainly better than watching it play out for ten episodes on screen.
