About Micks New Billboard Charting CD: BLUE AGAIN
Mick Fleetwood, the iconic co-founder of Fleetwood Mac, celebrates his blues heritage with his new CD BLUE AGAIN, by The Mick Fleetwood Blues Band. On the week of release, this album hit the Billboard Blues Charts at #4, the iTunes Blues Chart at #1 and had rave reviews by such respected entities as AMG (All Music Guide).

The band features a tribute to the original Fleetwood Mac, the all-male blues band that started it all in 1967. This powerhouse blues project features versions of early Peter Green-penned hits such as ‘Black Magic Woman,’ ‘Albatross’ and ‘Rattlesnake Shake’ as well as original material composed by Rick Vito (with a rollicking version of Elmore James’ ‘Shake Your Moneymaker’ included for good measure).

BLUE AGAIN is both an original musical tour de force and a respectful tribute to Fleetwood Mac (in the midst of celebrating their 40th Anniversary), initiated by the sole member of the band to be in every incarnation from the beginning.

Mick manages his own wine enterprise, Mick Fleetwood Private Cellar. As with everything else in his life, Mick uses a hands-on approach to selecting, blending, critiquing and ultimately creating any wine that earns the distinction Mick Fleetwood Private Cellar. Fleetwood explains. I find so many parallels between the wine blending and creating music. Just a little change to either mix can make all the difference. Its so much about really caring and paying attention in the process.
