Two new Fleetwood Mac box sets are to be released on September 4 through Rhino Records which will focus on the band’s early years.
The first is an 8CD set titled Fleetwood Mac 1969-1974 and will include remastered versions of Then Play On, Kiln House, Future Games, Bare Trees, Penguin, Mystery To Me and Heroes Are Hard To Find.
Among the standard album tracks will be single versions, unedited recordings and alternative takes, while a previously unreleased concert from The Record Plant in Sausalito, California, in 1974 – recorded just months before Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks joined Fleetwood Mac – will also be included.
A 4LP collection will feature the unreleased 1974 live album along with Penguin, Mystery To Me and Heroes Are Hard To Find.
The studio albums have been cut from the original masters and will be presented in replica sleeves. The vinyl collection will also include a 7-inch single with For Your Love (Mono Promo Edit) and the previously unreleased Good Things (Come To Those Who Wait) on the b-side.
Aside from the two box sets, a coloured vinyl pressing of Fleetwood Mac 1973-1974 will launch exclusively through Rhino Records. Penguin, Mystery To Me, Heroes Are Hard To Find, the live album and 7-inch single will also appear on variously coloured vinyl through the label.
