Fleetwood Mac (1975), ook ‘the white Fleetwood Mac album’, is het 11e album van de Fleetwood Mac. Dit album bevat de hitsingle Rhiannon, die ruim een jaar later in de Europese hitparades verscheen. In deze periode werd ook het album wel opgemerkt maar haalde het de top 20 niet. Ook nummers als Landslide en Over My Head worden gemist door het platenkopend publiek.

Fleetwood Mac is the tenth studio album by the British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released on 11 July 1975 in the United States and on 1 August 1975 in the United Kingdom by Reprise Records. It is the band's second eponymous album, the first being their 1968 debut album, and is sometimes referred to by fans as the White Album. It is the first Fleetwood Mac album with Lindsey Buckingham as guitarist and Stevie Nicks as a vocalist, after Bob Welch departed the band in late 1974. It is also the band's last album to be released on the Reprise label until 1997's The Dance; the band's subsequent albums until then were released through Warner Bros. Records, Reprise's parent company.

The album peaked at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart on 4 September 1976, 58 weeks after entering the chart, and spawned three top-twenty singles: "Over My Head", "Rhiannon", and "Say You Love Me", the last two falling just short of the top ten, both at number 11. It has been certified 7× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales of over seven million copies in the United States. Peaking at number 23 on the UK Albums Chart, it was the start of a run of hugely successful albums for the band in Britain, with six number ones, Fleetwood Mac being followed by Rumours (1977), Tusk (1979), Mirage (1982), Tango in the Night (1987), and Behind the Mask (1990).
