This legendary album, certified 21x Platinum, features some of the band's most beloved hits, including "Don't Stop," "You Make Loving Fun," and "The Chain." Christine McVie, the band's singer, keyboardist, and songwriter, contributed significantly to the band's popularity with timeless tracks like "Over My Head," "Say You Love Me," and "Everywhere."
