Alongside that Fleetwood Mac were the backing group on Eddie Boyd's '7936 South Rhodes' album (1968) and 'The Biggest Thing Since Colossus' (1969) with Chicago pianist Otis Spann. An all-star 'Blues Jam In Chicago' album came out in 1969 with Fleetwood Mac performing alongside Otis Spann, Willie Dixon, Shakey Horton, J.T. Brown, Buddy Guy, & Honeyboy Edwards.
