Fleetwood Mac was founded in London in July 1967 by ex-Bluesbreakers members, Peter Green and Mick Fleetwood. They quickly became a major force in the UK blues scene with their eponymous first album. After experiencing a personal crisis, the group reorganized under the leadership of Fleetwood and shifted away from blues towards mainstream popularity. Over the years, they have had numerous talented members join and leave the band, including Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks.

Throughout their career, Fleetwood Mac has left an indelible mark on the music industry. Their sound evolved from blues to a more mainstream style that resonated with audiences worldwide. With hits like "Go Your Own Way" and "Rhiannon," they captivated listeners with their unique blend of rock and pop.

In recognition of their contributions to music, Fleetwood Mac was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1998 as performers. Their enduring legacy continues to inspire new generations of musicians and fans alike.

Boston is a set which collects live recordings from an earlier era of the band's colourful history. The set features the classic blues line-up of Mick Fleetwood, Peter Green, Danny Kirwan, John McVie and Jeremy Spencer. Originally recorded at the Boston Tea Party venue over three nights in February 1970, for a planned release later the same year, these recordings were left in the can, unissued, following leader Peter Green's sudden decision to leave the band a few weeks after the dates. Tracks from the shows were eventually released in various forms in the mid-80s but these releases were blighted by poor sound sources. The discovery of the original 8-track tapes and a number of previously unreleased tracks in the late 90s allowed the material to be re-mixed, re-mastered, and substantially overhauled for release on 3 separate CD volumes.
