Heroes are Hard to Find
Heroes Are Hard to Find is the ninth studio album by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released on 13 September 1974. This is the last album with Bob Welch, who left at the end of 1974, and was replaced by Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. It was the first Fleetwood Mac studio album properly recorded in the US as well as the first to enter the top 40 of the Billboard 200 album chart. The title track was edited and issued as a single but it failed to chart-Wikipedia
Critic Reviews
Show All-
Ultimate classic Rock
Not to sound redundant, but the rhythm section once again saves the day here.

Seattle PI
May not be a classic, but it is more than acceptable and does shine in places.
-
Super Seventies
Those clear, linear guitar leads over busy rhythm figures, and high, simple vocals, have always been the Mac sound,

Maggie Felisberto
I wish this album were a little bit better, as Welch’s swansong, but it’s not terrible. In fact, it’s pretty good. It’s a nice listen.

Vulture
It would be one of the last moments of unchecked zoning out before the big hits began to roll in.
-
Daily Vault
"Coming Home” is a truly forgotten gem and one of the best Fleetwood Mac songs of the decade
-
Best Shot
Seven of the eleven songs are written by Bob Welch and none of them seem to go anywhere.

Clems Music Review
Fortunately there are a couple of bright spots if you dig hard enough. Both Welch and McVie manage to put out one strong song apiece
-
Isra Box
Bolstered by sympathetic self-production and imaginative, often aggressive arrangements that include brassy horns on the title track (a blatant but failed attempt at a hit single), the album is one of their most cohesive yet diverse.
-
FYE
Heroes is a minor gem that retains its effortless pop charms and contains some buried jewels
