The Vaudeville Years of Fleetwood Mac 1968 to 1970 (or just The Vaudeville Years) is an album by British blues rock band Fleetwood Mac, released in 1998. It was a compilation of outtakes and unreleased tracks from the band's early line-up, none of which had previously been officially released. Available on double vinyl LP and double CD, it came with a booklet of extensive notes and anecdotes (written by Martin Celmins), and was the companion volume to Show-Biz Blues: Fleetwood Mac 1968–70, which was released a few years later.
The release included songs originally intended for the second unreleased disc of Then Play On. These included tracks recorded by Jeremy Spencer. There was also a single live performance of "Oh Well" with the rest of the collection filled out with various alternative takes of familiar Green, Spencer and Kirwan songs, including an alternative take of Peter Green's "The Green Manalishi (With the Two Prong Crown)".
"The Vaudeville Years" was reissued in 2008 as a double CD set with a single DVD, but without the extensive sleeve notes.
