Inducted into the Rock Hall in 1998 by Sheryl Crow, Fleetwood Mac’s latest tour has shown the world that the band remains a formidable force at the box office.  Having already sold more than 325,000 tickets for their 2013 tour, The Mac’s newest leg is sure to be a must-buy for boomers who grew up rocking to the band as well as new fans that who can’t imagine a world without Rumours.

Speaking of which, in celebration of the 35th anniversary of that pivotal album’s release, Fleetwood Mac is issuing a deluxe version of Rumours.  Set to drop Jan. 29 on Rhino Records, the expanded edition includes the b-side of “Silver Springs,” several unreleased live recordings from the band’s 1977 world tour and a disc filled with outtakes from the album’s recording sessions. 

And, if that’s not enough to entice Fleetwood Mac fans, the deluxe edition also includes a DVD featuring 1977’s “The Rosebud Film” that documents the making of the album as well as a vinyl copy of Rumours.  Digital versions will also be available.
