Fleetwood Mac - Live 1980 LP

When Fleetwood Mac released its first live album in December 1980, it captured the legendary band's most iconic lineup on stage demonstrating the full scope of their collective, creative powers. Recorded mostly during the world tour for Tusk, Fleetwood Mac Live delivered a double-album's worth of exhilarating performances that included massive hits like "Dreams" and "Go Your Own Way," "Rhiannon," and "Don't Stop."

The majority of the original album was recorded live between 1979 and 1980, save for a few exceptions: "Don't Let Me Down Again," was recorded in 1975 during the tour for Fleetwood Mac; "Dreams" and "Don't Stop" are from the band's sound check in Paris; while "Fireflies," "One More Night," and a cover of the Beach Boys' "Farmer's Daughter" were all recorded in California during a special show for the band's crew, family, and friends.

"Then and now, Fleetwood Mac Live artfully marks a fascinating time period for a group that, in one form or another, has been on the global stage for more than half a century... It's a wildly entertaining rock 'n' roll circus in full swing under a big tent of the band's own creation as they leave audiences dazzled in locales from Paris, France, to Passaic, New Jersey." - David Wild
