Riding off the smash success of their self-titled tenth album, the extensive six months of touring started to tear the band apart at the seams. John and Christine McVie had ended their eight-year marriage, Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks fought constantly upon their breaking up, and Mick Fleetwood's wife was having an affair with his best friend. However, the only constant that kept these bandmates together was the music they would create.

The band started producing their next album in February 1976 under the working title of ''Yesterday's Gone'', which Buckingham took charge of to create a "pop album." He and Christine McVie laid out the foundations of many the tracks upon guitar and piano, and the band would see what worked and what didn't, splicing portions of songs onto other songs and beyond. However, cocaine and sleepless nights dragged the recording onward, where they would come in at seven at night and wouldn't record until two in the morning. All the while rumors circulated about the band breaking up, replacing members, and other scandals.

In spite of the tumultuous recording sessions, ''Rumours'' was essentially all Fleetwood Mac wanted[[note]]mostly--Nicks' "Silver Springs" was cut in favor of "I Don't Want to Know" because the latter was shorter and jauntier, but the former was tacked onto the end of the album in released from 2004 onward[[/note]]. It was released to raptorous critical acclaim, regarded as even better than their self-titled effort, and sold extremely well in the commercial department as well. "Go Your Own Way," "Don't Stop," "You Make Loving Fun," and "Dreams" were all singles from the album, though the rest of the songs have all received similar status.

* BSide: Though cut from the album, Nicks' "Silver Springs" stands as one of the band's most famous songs. It was only released on the back of Buckingham's "Go Your Own Way", to which it served as an AnswerSong, but proved popular enough to appear on a later BoxedSet. The live version from ''The Dance'' was a hit. It was eventually added to the album proper on the 2004 reissue, between "Songbird" and "The Chain".

* TakeThat: This album is absolutely loaded with {{Take That}}s from one band-member towards the other. Lead single "Go Your Own Way"'s probably the most obvious - the ''Packing up, shacking up is all you want to do'' line is Buckingham insulting Nicks. Nicks responded with the single's B-side "Silver Springs" - which features the line ''I'll follow you down 'till the sound of my voice will haunt you/you'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you''. The last-named song was, for many years, one of the rarest and most sought-after of Fleetwood Mac tracks because it appeared only on the B-side of the single of "Go Your Own Way"; it had been left off the album because of lack of space, much to Nicks' displeasure, and wasn't officially released on a Mac album until their 1992 retrospective box-set. It's also been added to the reissued and remastered editions of this album, for what that's worth.
** Saying that Nicks was "displeased" about "Silver Springs" being left off this album is a classic understatement. She once recounted in an interview that when Mick Fleetwood gave her the bad news, she went out into the parking lot and literally shrieked in rage.
