By chance, while we were at the Wadebridge folk festival ( brilliant ) we heard on the radio that Fleetwood mac were having a revival concert in Oxford a few days later. Oxford being quite a bit away from Wadebridge, we decided to enjoy the festival and then beatle off. the concert in Oxford was worth the awful drive through brittish motorways!!!!! I wonder how they will do on this one. I mean that was 22 years ago!!! |

In the late sixties and early seventies they were a blues band - probably the most spectacularly melodic and inventive to come from our country. |

05 Feb 03 - 04:28 PM (#883430) Subject: RE: Fleetwood Mac Fans? From: mooman I agree with alanabit having seen both the original Peter Green and later Jeremy Spencer-led lineups live. Utterly superb. Good to see Peter Green is having something of a comeback with The Splinter Group now too...a truly great guitarist and blues singer. I have to say that Stevie Nicks, Lindsay Buckingham and Christine McVie wrote a few decent songs in the later line up too, although I prefer the earlier Fleetwood Mac. mooman |

06 Feb 03 - 04:42 AM (#883821) Subject: RE: Fleetwood Mac Fans? From: Bullfrog Jones That very first album (was it just 'Fleetwood Mac'? The cover with the dog nosing around the dustbins) was just sensational -- and then they added Danny Kirwan and got even better! I don't mind some of the Californian pop stuff, but they should have changed the name. BJ |
