Editorial Review:
Sex, Drugs, Rock n' Roll, it's all just part of the story… In 1978 Fleetwood Mac released an album that would go on to sell over 27 million records. Rumours was the high water mark in a career that has seen ups and downs that would have destroyed most bands. Yet somehow, Fleetwood Mac endures. FLEETWOOD MAC: UNBROKEN CHAIN looks at over thirty years of rock n' roll history, from the perspective of one of the world's most enduring bands.
Fleetwood Mac - Unbroken Chain Reviews:
Waste Of Money 
2007-07-05 - I've been a Fleetwood Mac fan since 1975 so they're wasn't much here for a serious fan & what I did get out of it you could read anywhere.Many facts were wrong & they're wasn't any FM music in it at all.No rare photo's, concert footage or any unknown information. It was a waste of money!Very disappointing!
some inaccuracys 
2007-04-19 - I bought this, so I could see some live footage on fleetwwod mac. Some of the information they give is incorrect. For instance they said that Mick Fleetwwod approached Stevie Nicks not Lindsey to join the band and she said that her and lindsey were a package deal. The truth is that mick fleetwood needed a guitar player and just so happen to be in the studio while they were playing a buckinham/nicks album, he like the guitar player and asked who it was and the person told him that it was Lindsey Buckingham.He asked for Lindsey's Number and the guy told him that he probably would not join without his partner Stevie Nicks. Mick told him that he did not care and he called Lindsey and asked if he would be in there band, and he told Mick that he had talk it over with Stevie, It was Stevie who went out and bought all of Fleetwood Mac's previous albums, so they could decide if this was the kind of music they wanted to play. Stevie convinced Lindsey to join, and that as broke as they were at the time, they would be making money... and the rest is history. (other than the inaccuracys the dvd was o.k.)
Unauthorized, Inaccurate and Horrible!
2005-10-27 - The negative reviews I've read are right on target. I, like others, bought this DVD because I'm a Fleetwood Mac freak and for the inexpensive price, I thought I'd give it a chance. Just because it's unauthorized doesn't necessarily mean that it's going to be awful, right? But, this is so bad that it's almost painful to watch.
It's terribly inaccurate - and for those of us who are huge fans, this DVD is maddening to watch because things are said that simply aren't true. The "experts" have very little connection to Fleetwood Mac - in some cases, they have NO connection to the band. There's no Fleetwood Mac music (I'm sure that's because it's unauthorized) and no film clips, either. There's nothing redeeming about the DVD. I would have rated it a "0", but my review couldn't be posted without giving it at least a "1."
Review of Fleetwood Mac - Unbroken Chain
2005-09-01 - If you are a true Fleetwood Mac fan, do not waste your time or money on this item. It is an unauthorized re-telling of the groups history, with many false statements by unknown people with very little credablity. There is very little to no live footage of the actual group, no interviews; only comman photo's that everyone has already seen. Save your money and buy the Fleetwood Mac Rumours DVD or watch a re-run of VH1's Behind The Music.
BE WARNED....
2004-09-15 - The fact that it says RIGHT ON THE COVER that this DVD isn't an "authorized" product of Fleetwood Mac, should have tipped me off. I must have either been on drugs or had 20 bucks burning a hole in my pocket when I bought this. There is NO FM music in this DVD, there are several factual inaccuracies, and there are no interviews with anyone really important ( no one closely associated with the band, just a few random people who played with them back in the sixties, and two members of the British fan club, of all things .) The few rare pictures shown of FM in concert and things were of only slight interest, and saved this from a one star rating. SAVE YOUR MONEY !!!! There are MUCH better FM DVD documentaries out there, most of them authorized, like the "Classic Albums" series that features "Rumours".
