A book showcasing the legendary Fleetwood Mac blues session at Chicago’s Chess Studios in January 1969

This book focuses on a crucial moment in the history of one of the most popular bands in music history and its beginnings as a blues band in the late 1960s. It includes many never-before-seen color and black-and-white photos from this legendary  session.

  • This is the only book to cover this famous and influential 1969 rock/blues album
  • Includes photos of Fleetwood Mac guitarists Peter Green, Danny Kirwan, and Jeremy Spencer jamming with Chicago blues-scene legends Willie Dixon, Otis Spann, and Buddy Guy
  • Includes forewords by both producers present at the session: Mike Vernon MBE, and Marshall Chess


High quality images show founding Fleetwood Mac members Peter Green, Danny Kirwan, Jeremy Spencer, Mick Fleetwood, and John McVie with the major Chicago blues musicians - Willie Dixon, Otis Spann, and Buddy Guy – of the time. Also featured throughout the book are recollections by many of Fleetwood Mac’s contemporaries, such as Kim Simmonds, Aynsley Dunbar, and Martin Barre, as well as a new interview with Buddy Guy.

The resulting volume is sure to be a must-have that belongs on every fan's and collector's bookshelf.

Jeff Lowenthal began photography as an enthusiastic amateur but soon became a professional after images he took at a recording session were featured in DownBeat magazine. “If I can’t make music, I can document those who do,” he says. Jeff has a BS from the University of Wisconsin and an MSJ from Northwestern but learned photography on the job. Robert Schaffner grew up in a variety of states, until his family finally settled in the Chicagoland area. His hometown and his interest in British blues made the Fleetwood Mac in Chicago album a perfect and inevitable topic for this book.
