In the end, the real Fleetwod Mac retained all rights to their name. Mick Fleetwood, however, managed to get Davis' band banned from performing or collecting any royalties. Using all new musicians, Davis attempted to take the pseudo-Mac on tour, reported the Washington Post. Because this occurred in the U.S., the real Fleetwood Mac had to move to America to fight Davis in court.Īn article on WOGB states the band had a total of only $2,700 when they arrived in the U.S. This fake wannabe was the brainchild of the original group's manager, Clifford Davis, who claimed rights to the name in 1974.
Complicating matters was another band also calling itself Fleetwood Mac.
