1.0 out of 5 stars What a ripoff!, December 13, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Rumours Exposed: The Unauthorized Biography of Fleetwood Mac (Hardcover)

If you've seen the VH1 Behind The Music specials on FLeetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks there's NOTHING NEW to learn here. The writer took quotes from the VH1 specials and articles she found on the Fleetwood Mac Penguin website and wrote a book making up stories to surround these out of context quotes. Its sad that this "author" didn't make any attempt to do ANY research, talk to ANYONE or do ANYTHING other than view 2 hours of tv shows and read a few dozen old articles.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nothing new, December 3, 2000

New World Smurf "new_world_smurf" (Richmond, Virginia) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)

This review is from: Rumours Exposed: The Unauthorized Biography of Fleetwood Mac (Hardcover)

Even a casual fan of Fleetwood Mac's will not find any surprises in Leah Furman's biography, "Rumours Exposed". It's obvious Furman did not talk to anyone even remotely associated with FM, and she used readily accessable print/Web sources for the majority of her information. The writing is stop and go as well, as if this was a magazine article padded to book length, and Ms. Furman's style veers between rock-journalist pretension and gushy fan. Diehards may just want the book to add to their collection, but if you're less than that, just borrow it from your local public library.

This review is from: Rumours Exposed: The Unauthorized Biography of Fleetwood Mac (Hardcover)

Sorry guys, nothing new here. It's all rehashed from the usual articles, and if you're a fan of the group you've read all these articles 6 times by now. Save yourself the time and go reread Mick's autobiography!
