 BE WARNED.... September 15, 2004

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".

You must be a fleetwood mac fan from conception to now to fully appreciate the history and makings of the band. If you are looking for rare concert footage etc or are a Buckingham-Nicks era fan only, you will be disappointed. I found Bob Brunning to give conflicting information. He said Mick Fleetwood wanted Stevie first and foremost and yet, to hear it from Mick, Lyndsey and Stevie, they all say the oppposite! I found this to be a rehash of their history that i already knew about. I was hoping to find out 'new' stuff that had never been revealed before...instead, i get conflicting information. The UK Historian and fan club woman (cannot remember her name) seemed to be very against Stevie, which I found surprising. She said Stevie was calculating. So what! Is it wrong to have ambition? I don't know...I am glad I saw it becasue I am a true FM fan from the very beginning to now, but disappointed that it was just pics and a handful of people giving their opinions (hearsay). No concert footage, nothing. so if that is what you were hoping for (like me) then save your money. Nothing dazzling here. Nothing you cannot find for free on the internet.

There are no redeeming qualities that I can mention about this unauthorized dvd. No Fleetwood Mac interviews nor music or concert footage. A few nice photos, big deal. Not worth it.
Unauthorized, Inaccurate and Horrible! October 27, 2005

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 September 1, 2005

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.
