Mr. Wonderful is the second album by the blues-rock band, Fleetwood Mac, released in 1968. An expanded version of this album was included in the box set, The Complete Blue Horizon Sessions.
Like their first album, this was an all-blues album, but this time the band had made a few changes. The album was recorded live in the studio with miked amplifiers and PA system, rather than plugged into the board.[citation needed] They also added horns and featured a friend of the band on keyboards, Christine Perfect of Chicken Shack. Four of the songs, "Dust My Broom", "Doctor Brown", "Need Your Love Tonight" and "Coming Home", begin with an identical Elmore James riff.
