Mick Fleetwood has been a member of the ever-evolving Fleetwood Mac, one of the worlds most successful and adored bands, for over four decades. Here he tells the full and candid story of his life as one of musics greatest drummers and bandleaders, the cofounder of the deeply loved supergroup that bears his name and that of his bandmate and lifelong friend John McVie.
In this intimate portrait of a life lived in music, Fleetwood vividly recalls his upbringing tapping along to every song playing on the radio, his experiences as a musician in 60s London, and the earliest permutation of the band featuring Peter Green.

Michael John Kells Fleetwood has been playing drums professionally since his teens in 1963. From his seat behind the kit, he watched the 60s unfold, humbly taking his part in the play that defined rock and roll as we know it today. The band that bears his name, which he cofounded with John McVie and Peter Green and became iconic while fronted by Lindsey Buckingham, Christine McVie, and Stevie Nicks, is one of the most successful, long-lasting, and beloved acts of the past half century. Fleetwood was born in Cornwall, England, and now lives in Maui, Hawaii.
Anthony Bozza remembers being twelve years old, sitting in the passenger seat of his fathers midnight-blue convertible, staring at the cassette cover of Tusk as the music took him in. That moment changed his life. Writing this book and befriending Fleetwood has been nothing short of an honor. Bozza is the author of seven New York Times bestsellers. A native of Long Island, New York, he lives in New York City.

The towering, gleefully maniacal man who has kept the beat for the oft-shifted lineup of Fleetwood Mac since its inception details how he got the beat, the times he lost it, and the rumors and truths behind one of the most fractious, record-shatteringly triumphant groups in rock history.
Sarah Rodman, Boston Globe
Mick Fleetwoods life is the stuff of great rock memoir, and Play On doesnt hold back on the stories behind the songs or the dramas on the road and in the studio. Fleetwood is also deeply reflective on the relationships he sacrificed to the band, whether as a father, a husband, or a son.
David Daley, Salon
Play On is a good read, not only because Fleetwoods got a spectacular story to tell, but because theres a warmth and humanism to what he does, and the stories he tells, that make him a very likable, charismatic fellow.
Dave DiMartino, Rolling Stone
Its safe to say that Mick Fleetwood, drummer and founding member Fleetwood Mac, with forty-six years of rock stardom under his belt, has stories to share. And so he does in Play On, an intimate trip through memories that also doubles as an inside guide to one of the most influential periods and bands in music history, as told by one of its most pivotal figures. Its all there.
James Joiner, Esquire
A pleasant reminder of Fleetwood Macs claim to rock n roll history. The best moments tend to be personal: the recent end of Fleetwoods marriage is poignantly discussed, and there is something warm and reassuring about the obvious affection that radiates for his first love, Jenny Boyd. Musicians will enjoy Fleetwoods descriptions of his drumming style. Ultimately, the book is a reminder of why Fleetwood remains a father figure even to his peers: he works as hard at mending fences and treating bandmates fairly as he does at keeping a steady beat.
Kirk Curnutt, Paste
Fleetwood provides an interesting overview of the band. His voice and outlook are happy and he comes across as a kind, thoughtful man. Play On makes for some fascinating reading.
Georgie Binks, Toronto Star
A chatty tome about Fleetwoods rascally history.
Melissa Ruggieri, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Mick Fleetwoods candid autobiography, Play On, details his ups and downs as the sole constant in the ever-changing lineup of the legendary group Fleetwood Mac.
