Fleetwood Mac were formed in July 1967 in London, England, when Peter Green left the British blues band John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers. Peter Green had previously replaced guitarist Eric Clapton in the Bluesbreakers and had received critical acclaim for his work on their album A Hard Road. Fleetwood Mac's self-titled debut album was a no-frills blues album and was released by the Blue Horizon label in February 1968. The band recorded several radio broadcasts, many of which were released on the album Live at the BBC. However, many tracks were not included because they were thought lost. They had, in fact, survived, albeit in some cases in rather lo fi. Nevertheless, the surviving recordings have been loving restored and mastered and complied for this album. Besides some outstand blues there s also rock n roll, psychedelic jams and even Fleetwood Mac backing Eddie Boyd on Where You Belong.
