Vintage Years is a compilation album by the British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released in 1975. The album features tracks from the band's early years, spanning from 1969 to 1972. The album showcases the band's blues roots and experimental sound, and provides a glimpse into their early development as a group.

Comments
After first getting introduced to Fleetwood Mac from Kiln House and Bare Trees, I picked this up in 1975 having little or no idea about the Peter Green years and what a great British blues band Fleetwood Mac was in its original incarnation. Great compilation with a well-chosen selection of studio material from that era - most of it be found on the original Fleetwood Mac, Mr. Wonderful and English Rose.
