Cons: last 2 tracks disc 2
This is still one of the BEST Rock albums of all time. The second disc of and unreleased demos of Rumours tracks makes those that have listened to these songs for over 25 years enjoy them even more. The last two tracks of the second disc could have been left off though.

Pro Reviews: Rumours [Expanded]
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews In the spring of 2004, Warner Strategic Marketing reissued the Fleetwood Mac's first three albums with Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks as remastered expanded editions. Rumours is not only given an eighteentrack bonus disc, but the Bside "Silver Springs" is added to the original album, between "Songbird" and "The Chain" which may be a controversial move for some, since it upsets the original running order (even though it was added to the previouslyreleased DVDAudio version of the record, albiet in a different place on the album, but that whole release scrambles the track listing on the second side, anyway). Nevertheless, it's very nice to have the original "Silver Springs" on CD, and the bonus disc is quite impressive, even though it isn't necessarily the kind of disc that will played all that frequently. The biggest discovery are the previously unreleased songs two by Stevie Nicks, the very good official outtake "Think About It" (cowritten with Roy Bittan), and the demo of "Planets of the Universe," and sketches by Christine McVie ("Butter Cookie (Keep Me There)") and Lindsey Buckingham ("Doesn't Anything Last"); while only "Think About It" was in any shape to make the final record, they're all interesting listens. Apart from the two jams that conclude the album (one a snippet, the other kind of lengthy and appropriately given "The Blues" as its subtitle), the rest of the album consists of alternate takes and demos of nearly every song on the album, with "Gold Dust Woman" and "Never Going Back Again" appearing twice (the latter is once given it's original title, "Brushes"). These are dubbed as "roughs" on the back cover and that's what they are the songs are essentially in place, just not polished. Hence, it's easier to listen to than really rough demos, but there's not any real revelations either just enough differences to make this a fascinating bonus disc for fans, particularly since the clearinghouse nature of this bonus disc suggests there's nothing Rumoursrelated left in the vaults. While it may not be a disc that's played regularly, it's an excellent bonus disc that makes this overall package a superb reissue. - Stephen Thomas Erlewine , All Music Guide |

While most bands undergo a number of changes over the course of their career, few groups experienced such radical stylistic changes as Fleetwood Mac. Initially conceived as a hard-edged British blues combo in the late '60s, the band gradually evolved...Full Fleetwood Mac Biography

Pros: great album
Cons: the disc of outtakes
After waiting for umpteen years, Warner Bros. FINALLY gets around to remastering 3 of Fleetwood Mac's best albums. But then they lard up 2 of them, 'Rumours' and 'Tusk' by including a 2nd disc of outtakes and demos. Is anyone really gonna listen to this stuff?
At least they left 'Fleetwood Mac' as one disc. I resent Warners for making me, and everyone else, have to shell out extra bucks for these 2nd discs. They'll make great coasters....
As for 'Rumours' well, anyone who's reading this already has a copy, so I can't add anything beyond this: it's almost Spring, and 'Rumours' is one of the best albums to listen to at this time of year. ...
