Mick Fleetwood has announced he is excited by the prospect of a new Fleetwood Mac album, saying he is hopeful the group can put out a new record in the next few years.

Speaking to Esquire Magazine in the US, Fleetwood said the chemistry in the group is once again good thanks to the return of Christie McVie, and ideas of possible new material has been slowly surfacing from different members of the band.

"We have a whole lot of material from Lindsey [Buckingham] and me and John [McVie] from the last two and a half years, and also Christine, when she came to LA a little while ago. We have a whole bunch of tracks. We're hoping... We don't really know how it's going to be placed. My hope is, of course, that it becomes a full-fledged Fleetwood Mac offering."

The drummer explained, before detailing what he hopes the future holds for the iconic band once they finish touring: "There's really not much time now, this tour is unfolding as we speak, but my heart tells me that, within the next couple of years or less, there will be a really, really cool Fleetwood Mac album. And that's certainly my hope."
