Granted, a few years would pass after I was born before I was old enough to truly recognize the brilliance of Rumours’ eleven songs.

Indeed, if there is a single album to which the earliest seeds of Albumism can be traced, it’s unquestionably Rumours. And while my parents’ voices undoubtedly figured prominently in my earliest aural experiences, I’m also convinced that three other voices made an indelible mark on my blossoming brain: Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, and Christine McVie.Įven if completely unknowingly, I suspect that Rumours, a staple of my parents’ record collection that they played often during my incubation, was the record that first fed the curiosity that would subsequently evolve into my full-fledged love for the album format. I was born in October 1977, eight months-nearly to the day-after Fleetwood Mac released their watershed album Rumours in early February of that year.

In my case, I wouldn’t be surprised if I happened to learn that my obsession with song began way back in the cozy confines of the womb, aided in no small part by my parents’ fantastic taste in music. Similar studies have pointed to the positive impact that playing music during the prenatal months has on a baby’s budding auditory recognition. Many studies have suggested that expectant parents who regularly speak to their baby in utero are aiding in an important early step in their child’s language development, while also strengthening the attachment the baby has for his or her parents. Happy 45th Anniversary to Fleetwood Mac’s eleventh studio album Rumours, originally released February 4, 1977.
