The 2-LP set didn’t just combine recordings from multiple dates on the Tusk tour … it pulled in songs from multiple tours to present a weird, idealized version of “a Fleetwood Mac concert.” The original release threw in a few cuts from the Rumours tour, a song originally released by Buckingham Nicks (“Don’t Let Me Down Again”) that the Mac performed on tour in 1975, and even a couple of studio rarities (“Fireflies” and a cover of the Beach Boys’ “Farmer’s Daughter”). In that regard, Live was perhaps the apotheosis of the Frankenstein-ed “live” album. The band recorded audio and video at every one of the 112 (!) dates they played between October 1979 and September 1980 and then proceeded to put together an album that putatively represented a Tusk tour date.
The full track listing for Fleetwood Mac Live: Super Deluxe Edition can be found below, along with and unreleased live performance of the group’s classic song “The Chain,” recorded in Cleveland in 1980.įleetwood Mac’s 1980 double-album Live was released as a way for the physically, emotionally, and creatively exhausted group to continue the winning streak that saw them dominate the last half of the ’70s with Fleetwood Mac, Rumours, and Tusk. The album also featured three new songs, including the single “Fireflies.”ĭisc three of the new reissue is made up entirely of previously unreleased live versions of classic Fleetwood Mac tracks, including “Tusk,” “Gold Dust Woman,” “Songbird” and “The Green Manalishi (With the Two-Pronged Crown).” The set also includes a bonus 7″ single featuring previously unreleased demo versions of “Fireflies” and “One More Night.”Ī booklet filled with rare photos, the band’s itinerary from the Tusk tour, plus a detailed history of the live album completes the set. Highlights included “Dreams,” “Go Your Own Way,” “Don’t Stop” and a blistering rendition of “Rhiannon.” Three songs from that record made it onto Live – “Sara,” “Over and Over” and “Not That Funny” – while the rest of the LP was made up tunes from throughout the band’s distinguished career. Most of Fleetwood Mac Live was originally recorded while the band toured the world in support of Tusk, their 1979 two-LP studio album. The new version, Fleetwood Mac Live: Super Deluxe Edition, will be released as a three-CD/two-LP collection featuring remastered versions of the original double album, along with more than an hour of unreleased live music from the band recorded between 19.
