"Spare Me a Little of Your Love" became a staple of the band's live act from 1972–1977. The album features the original version of "Sentimental Lady", which was later re-recorded by its composer Bob Welch (with Mick Fleetwood, Christine McVie, and Lindsey Buckingham backing him) for his solo album French Kiss. In the wake of the band's success in the mid-1970s, Bare Trees peaked at #70 and achieved Gold status in 1976 and certified platinum in 1988 for selling over a million copies. This is their last album to feature Danny Kirwan, who was fired during the album's supporting tour.

Originally Mastered By – Bobil (tracks: 1 to 4), Rasputin (tracks: 5 to 10) Marketed by Rhino Entertainment Company, a Warner Music Group Company. Buckingham left the group initially, but the band decided to soldier on, releasing one other album before Nicks and McVie left the band in the early ’90s, hastening the group’s commercial decline.Release of the album: 1972, March The band reunited for one album, 1987’s Tango in the Night, before splintering in the late ’80s. The band retained its popularity through the early ’80s, when Buckingham, Nicks, and Christine McVie all began pursuing solo careers. Combining soft rock with the confessional introspection of singer/songwriters, Fleetwood Mac created a slick but emotional sound that helped 1977’s Rumours become one of the biggest-selling albums of all time. Obsessed with the meticulously arranged pop of the Beach Boys and the Beatles, Buckingham helped the band become one of the most popular groups of the late ’70s. By the mid-’70s, Fleetwood Mac had relocated to California, where they added the soft rock duo of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks to their lineup. Originally, guitarists Peter Green and Jeremy Spencer provided the band with its gutsy, neo-psychedelic blues-rock sound, but as both guitarists descended into mental illness, the group began moving toward pop/rock with the songwriting of pianist Christine McVie. Ironically, they had the least influence over the musical direction of the band. Throughout all of their incarnations, the only consistent members of Fleetwood Mac were drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie - the rhythm section that provided the band with its name. Initially conceived as a hard-edged British blues combo in the late ’60s, the band gradually evolved into a polished pop/rock act over the course of a decade. While most bands undergo a number of changes over the course of their careers, few groups experienced such radical stylistic changes as Fleetwood Mac.

Wonderful' & 'Then Play On' the driving force of Peter Green had deteriorated as he lapsed into a personal crisis by 1970. Founded in London in July 1967 (by ex-Bluesbreakers members, Peter Green and Mick Fleetwood), Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac instantly became a major force in the UK blues scene, along with their eponymous first album.
