Mick was initially delighted by one of Buckingham's guitar solos, and sought to hire him as their guitarist. But he wanted Stevie to join as well, so Mick arranged a joint meeting at a Mexican restaurant. Stevie won him over, and both were hired.

'''''Fleetwood Mac''''' is the eleventh studio album--the second SelfTitledAlbum--recorded by the British-American RockAndRoll [[Music/FleetwoodMac band of the same name]]. It was released through Reprise Records on 11 July 1975. In terms of their discography, it is sometimes referred to as ''The White Album''.

Following the release and promotion of their tenth album, ''Heroes Are Hard To Find'', lead singer Bob Welch departed the band. Band co-founder Mick Fleetwood met with a new producer, Keith Olsen, who gave him some demos to listen to. One of them was titled ''Buckingham Nicks'', and was performed by a pair of lovers, Lindsey Buckingham and [[Music/StevieNicks Stephanie "Stevie" Nicks]].

Mick was initially delighted by one of Buckingham's guitar solos, and sought to hire him as their guitarist. But he wanted Stevie to join as well, so Mick arranged a joint meeting at a Mexican restaurant. Stevie won him over, and both were hired.

Over the next three months, the refreshed band recorded this album. The album held eleven tracks, spawning four singles: "Warm Ways", "Over My Head", "Rhiannon", and "Say You Love Me".

Sales were slow at first, but in 1976 it took off, with "Over My Head" being their first Top-40 hit in the United States. Both "Rhiannon" and "Say You Love Me" would subsequently top out at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100. And the album would ''blow up'' from there.

Ultimately, ''Fleetwood Mac'' went seven-times Platinum in the United States, and earned their first Gold album in the United Kingdom.

But another song that was unreleased on its own, "Landslide", would eventually become one of the band's most well-loved songs, as well as one of Stevie's signature songs on its own.
