About this listen
'After 46 years of being on the road, now is the right time to look back in a way I've never done before: now and then. I'm looking forward to sharing it with you.'
Mick Fleetwood has been part of one of the world's most successful and adored bands for over four decades. Here he tells the full and candid story of that life, and what it is to be part of the ever evolving Fleetwood Mac.
His all-access autobiography spans the career of one of classic rock's greatest drummers and band leaders, the co-founder of the deeply loved super group that bears his name.
In this intimate portrait of a life lived in music, Fleetwood vividly recalls his upbringing in Cornwall, Egypt, and Norway, tapping along to whatever song was playing on the radio; his experiences as a musician in Sixties London; the early days of the band featuring Peter Green, and his close friendship with George Harrison and seemingly all of music royalty.
Play On sheds new light on Fleetwood Mac's raucous history, describing the highs and lows of being part of a band that he often single-handedly kept together. His love affair with Stevie Nicks, the creation of landmark albums like Rumours and Tusk, and the many incredible and outrageous moments of recording, touring, fighting, and loving with Fleetwood Mac: all are here. He describes his life's moments with the honesty and immediacy that his fans expect, taking us to the very heart of this multi-layered life.
It's been a tumultuous journey with the excesses of the band's huge success at times threatening to destroy what they strived so hard to create. But through it all, it's been the drive to play on that has won out. Now, then, and always, it's Fleetwood Mac.

Hopefully he’ll update the book though - after a decade, Mick must have a lot more tales to tell.
Chilled and content, as you’d expect Mick Fleetwood to be

The book is well read, which it needed to be as it is not a great work of prose, but it is a great insight into the life of a rock star in his own voice. Also, I thought it a bit slow to begin with and there were sections that I would have edited out, as they seemed a little self-indulgent. However, I enjoyed this autobiography and there seemed to be even handed account of situations that clearly had many facets. This is definitely a book for Fleetwood Mac fans and for anyone interested in the lifestyle of a successful and durable rock star.
A must read for long time Fleetwood Mac fans

I wasn’t expecting too much from this - I got a lot more than I paid for - but it left me hungry for technical details about the making of songs and albums. I wanted to feel like I was in the studio with them, and that rarely happened here.
Performance is good - the guy sounds like Mick and you quickly forgets it’s not really him speaking. Not sure it was necessary to do American accents when quoting Lindsey, Stevie and others.
A rollercoaster of a career, but lacks technical detail

This book touches on the good the bad and some of the ugly parts of Mick and the rest of the members lives. Some parts are difficult to learn, but it's all part and parcel of the essence of the amazing work and gift, Fleetwood Mac produced. Thank you for sharing your story, Mick.
Thank you for this, Mick!
