Two segments from "The Making of Rumours," the VH-1 documentary that tells the story behind the classic Fleetwood Mac album. Four members of the band - two couples - were in the midst of break-ups during the recording (which, by the way, took place here in the Bay Area at studios in Sausalito). In these two segments, band members and the album's producer tell the stories of how two classic tracks were written and produced.
In addition to the stories told by the band, the way the producer plays with the mixing board is really cool, turning off certain vocals or instruments in order to showcase others. Neat stuff.
The first segment is about "You Make Loving Fun" (written by Christine McVie, who was in the process of divorcing John McVie, about her new boyfriend)...
The second is about "Dreams" (written by Stevie Nicks about Lindsey Buckingham)...
Update: The sound on these clips seems to be a bit off from the actual video. Sorry about that.
