What do you mean, that's how talented he is? Are you kidding me, any time someone leaves a band they replace them, if you are naive enough to think they replaced him with better talent, then you are on bath salts 🧂!!! Lol 😂😂I
Eh Stevie ? Lindsay slayed it with Mick coming a close 2nd. Amazing instrumental set. L.B. is soo underrated as a guitarist. He’s right up there with the likes of Clapton, Prince, Hendrix et al IMHO
@@patstocker3658 There is no denying Stevie’s impact on any number of things: Her voice, her aesthetic (which was so copied by girls in my high school days that I can’t even) and her talent. Lindsay is…how to put this politely…sex with a guitar. Vastly talented, in voice and in musicianship.
Being 66 ain’t too much fun. But looking back we were in a golden generation with so much great music to enjoy, and these playlists bring back the most awesome and poignant memories. I feel sorry for today’s generation with nothing but crap to listen to.
This was my brother’s song. He died in a motorcycle accident in ‘78 at he age of 21. I still miss him, but when Lindsey starts to sing he brings back my brother for just a short while….
I heard on CBC today that Christine MCVie died at age 79. This is heartbreaking news. She was, and ever shall be, a magnificent songwriter, singer and performer. What a blessing for all of us that she graced us with her talent. Rest In peace, beautiful Christine.
Yes, I loved Christine. I actually love ALL of them. That band is fantastic. I really love this song!! I am so sorry about Christine. May God bless her....
@@cindymadden2830 I like all of them too. Without all of them together, they wouldn’t have been who they were or became. And Lindsey Buckingham? Oy vey. What a gorgeous specimen of a man.
Omg yes !!!! And when they do silver springs live and she stares straight into his soul when she says "you'll never get away from the sound of my voice that will haunt you"!!!!! And he literally could never escape it but you know it just shows how professional they all were because the tension was obvious but to spite that they didn't allow it to affect the live shows , in fact if anything it made the live performances that much more better and intense ❤ I never had the opportunity to see Fleetwood Mac live , however I just recently had the pleasure of seeing Stevie live in all her glory at 76 years old the amazing Gold dust Queen rocked out the arena and left us all with a wonderful timeless memory I will never ever forget❣️💯🥰
When American and British musicians get together this is what you get. One of the greatest bands ever to perform on stage. Their music will live forever.
I don't think in the history of music there has ever been a band with so many personal issues going on between band members AT THE SAME TIME. And fortunately for us, they turn that turmoil into some REALLY GREAT MUSIC.
Exactly, Peter Criss and Mick are my favorite drummers ever and underrated and underappreciated by far!!! Both, are why millions of people picked up drum sticks in the 70's and beyond!!!
I know what you mean about the neighbors listening too. I have fond memories of being in college when this song was out. Everyone on the campus of Central Washington University would be playing this song, along with every other one on this album at full blast. . . . all day, every day. It was the best of times.
They were just so damn talented and influential to many bands!!! These guys, the original lineup Kiss, Zeppelin, The Who, AC/DC, Motorhead, and the Eagles are my personal favorites!!!! 👍
I saw them in concert about 15yrs ago & they "Rocked" Really good live show. It wouldn't be the same without Christine. Such a talented women. RIP Christine..🌷💐
That is low key one of the greatest guitar solos in musical history. Just saying. Lindsay Buckingham doesnt get the respect he deserves when we talk about truly Great guitar players. And all without a pick!
@@zacnoordewier4882saw them just outside of Melbourne in the late 70s. They got on late and Stevie was completely wasted and was holding onto the mike stand like her life depended on it!
This band is so damn great that I don't actually have a favorite member, literally!!!! The girls are phenomenal, Lindsay Buckingham is absolutely 💯 percent a great front man and guitarist 🎸 and Mick on the drums 🥁, what else do I have to say about how great these guys are? Kiss, Zeppelin, The Who, AC/DC, these guys, Motorhead, and the Eagles are my personal favorites!!!!
Lindsey has a truly unique style way way way under appreciated.great songwriter as well. They certainly would have never been top of the mountain for a while without him
Nobody is enjoying himself more than the drummer in this clip, because he knows he is participating in one of the greatest hits of all time, in my opinion!!!!!
They were all on their A+ game that night. Words cannot describe this. You believe every word of what Lindsey is singing and it seems here that Stevie is in awe of Lindsey. The entire band is pushing each other to brilliance which is nothing short of amazing. Gives me chills how bout anyone else. Wow!
Not sure Stevie was in awe of Lindsey. Probably more reliving the fact that the song is written about her and dealing with the fact that it's a great frickin' song, even though she's painted in a terrible light.
Despite the decades of interpersonal drama they had, when the five of them are playing live you can just feel how music is just absolutely their first love. Mick Fleetwood always looks like an ecstatic puppy. Their joy is so contagious. Their live performances never fail to bring me to tears.
Lindsay Buckingham’s solo is superb but the drive from John McVie and Mick Fleetwood’s bass and drums is what raises this song to another level. It may be almost fifty years old, but nothing comes close.
Yes, Stevie, Lindsay, and Christine are great, but after listing to these great songs for nearly 50 years, I am more intently listening for John McVie's bass and, yes, Mick Fleetwood's drums. They tie these creative geniuses together.
@ericwilkins1621 Because, if you do your research Lindsay Buckingham is one of best guitarists 🎸 ever, and definitely most underrated and underappreciated!!! Thanks 👍
People living from 1950s to present, have had the best of times, in my opinion. Note how it's all going tits up. Look back, not in anger, but with love and fondness, for an era that is now departed. God, I'm so lucky to have been a part of it.
Amazing performance here. Lindsey Buckingham just killed the guitar solo and his vocals here were never better at any point in his career. And damn, you could tell Mick Fleetwood was really enjoying the drums on this night. Just outstanding!
Yes, it's a real life soap opera. I remember seeing them play in London at the Rainbow just after Rumours was released and they were already in turmoil then. We juvenilely joked that Christine wasn't so perfect... The looks they were giving each other really added to the power of their performance. maybe that was their way of just getting through it all. Memorable, nearly half a century ago.
@@trustnuthinman5778 Hard work? The best songs from bands were sometimes made and recorded in 5 minutes. The beatles said that. For electronic music nowadays you need to be half engineer nowadays (knowing the softwares inside and out. Also mixing and mastering). I'd say it is as hard as learning an instrument. It used to be alot easier to create music!
Agreed, he is the most underrated and underappreciated guitarist 🎸 ever, and Mick much like Mr. Peter Criss from Kiss original lineup are the two most underrated and underappreciated drummers ever as well!!! Love them all!!!
F.M can only be one of the very greatest bands of all time.... Their songs are timeless, their musicality simply beyond any rational experience...Lindsay's guitar work has to be one of the most unique in style ever!! ...the vocal section is just a fairy dream with the rhythm and bass section simply 'untouchable' in the 'world' may I humbly add..Their presence and Christines keyboard presence is something us muso's can only dream about..... Song writing, vocals presence demeanour image and sheer unadulterated talent togetherness and aura go cap in glove with Fleetwood Mac....Take this band to your hearts because when the mould breaks .....it will be the end of music! Nigel H Seymour
Not taking anything away from that amazing guitar solo by Lindsay Buckingham, but Mick Fleetwood is an absolute demon on the drums! And he's clearly having a blast!
April 1st, 2022.... as of today this is one of THE most amazing on-stage performances to me! Everyone is giving 120%... This is music, handmade, no drum-computer and, most importantly: passion!
So nice to hear real human talent and not computers and electronics. This is the last of an era when skills talent and passion actually meant something!! It all compliments each other so smoothly.
I'm 73 now and I can still remember how in the mid 70' when this album helped me get through one of the most intense emotional crises I've ever been through. Thank you.
I'm an old man now..no expert in music..never been but.. I'm allowed to give my opinion..this is like a baby..its a creation..it never existed before these people came together..gave birth to something that is still here 40 years later.. collaboration... building... social evocative...spiritual.. emotional.. moving... beautiful..this is Godly.. light.. creation! Love
One of the greatest songs ever made, by one of the greatest rock bands in history! Your music will last forever, thank you Fleetwood Mac, true artist! RIP to the great Christine McVie, will never be forgotten
You should have heard them back in their early days when Peter Green was the guitar player. They were much more of a blues band then; Green was an incredible blues guitarist. Look him up online if you're into great guitar playing.
Yes Lindsey is a great guitarist. Not taking anything away from the others that have played with them in his stead but it just seems that it always takes 2 guitarists to take his place when he's not with them.
Is there any other band who could make music like this? The perfect lyrics, the perfect instrumental, the perfect look, the perfect tension....just perfect
I could watch Mick Fleetwood beating the drums all day. The energy, pain, intense look and excitement on his face as he strikes every beat of the drums. He really gets into the music.
Yup I saw it too; it was a little more intense than that, with Christine just looking sad. At one point Stevie walks towards the drummer-was he the one she had an affair with? Amazing group dynamics. Fantastic performance. Stellar all around
Stevie turns to face him at the crucial point of the song and Lindsey kind of screws up his face to dare to glance at her . Lindsey wrote this song and Stevie said in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine "I very much resented him telling the world that 'packing up, shacking up' with different men was all I wanted to do," she told Rolling Stone. "He knew it wasn't true. It was just an angry thing that he said.
Well, I love all of them, but Stevie and Lindsay were an item for years, so who knows 🤷♂️ what is true or not? I am not here to worry about a soap opera!!! Lol
25 years since this performance and this song is still one of the greatest songs of all time and Lindsey Buckingham is one of the best guitar players on the planet and a musical genius!!!!!
The incredible thing about Lindsay Buckingham's style is the way that he doesn't just play the guitar, he becomes part of the guitar and he extracts sounds that are otherwise impossible.

This is laughable. He's been highly regarded for many decades!
Please remember when Mick was asked to choose between Peter and Lindsay, he said, “Both!!!”
He is definitely one of the most underrated and Mick on the drums 🥁 as well!!!!
You don’t get bands like this no more , unbelievable song
So true I play Fleetwood mac every chance I get this dong does it for me
You need to do more research on bands..... seriously there are bands like it but there are so many it's hard to keep up (that i agree)
Absolutely agree!
And never will this was talent and hard work not electric everything bless our days
@@trustnuthinman5778 Hard work? The best songs from bands were sometimes made and recorded in 5 minutes. The beatles said that. For electronic music nowadays you need to be half engineer nowadays (knowing the softwares inside and out. Also mixing and mastering). I'd say it is as hard as learning an instrument. It used to be alot easier to create music!
I fell in love at this point. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤😂lol they. Are great 😃😸
Damn, Lindsey could play the hell out of a guitar
Agreed, he is the most underrated and underappreciated guitarist 🎸 ever, and Mick much like Mr. Peter Criss from Kiss original lineup are the two most underrated and underappreciated drummers ever as well!!! Love them all!!!
AND he played without a pick!
Damn straight!!! Mr. Buckingham literally played without using a pick!!!! Unbelievable 👍
Yes it dose bring back a lot of memories
Gives me chills
Mick played the Hell out of those drums!!!😍
Agree . He has very fast sticks going cheers .
That freaking guitar solo!!! Lindsey is a legend, one of the best guitar players ever!
Agree. At the same time Fleetwood's pulsing drums are out of this world.
Never heard his stuff until I heard this show. Big Love is INCREDIBLE. Original. Creative. Put himself out there doing the song.
what?? i'm sure you all are just kidding.It must be
Agreed, he is amazing 👏!!!
although it's good, he's way down the list of the best!
Lindsey Buckingham is one of the most underrated musicians!!! A brilliant guitarist and singer !
Plucking, Strumming, Finger Flicking, Picking and Bending them Strings
Agreed, he didn't ever use a pick!!! This is one of the best guitar solos ever!!!!
He is the most underrated and underappreciated guitarist 🎸 ever, fact!!!!!!@
F.M can only be one of the very greatest bands of all time.... Their songs are timeless, their musicality simply beyond any rational experience...Lindsay's guitar work has to be one of the most unique in style ever!! ...the vocal section is just a fairy dream with the rhythm and bass section simply 'untouchable' in the 'world' may I humbly add..Their presence and Christines keyboard presence is something us muso's can only dream about..... Song writing, vocals presence demeanour image and sheer unadulterated talent togetherness and aura go cap in glove with Fleetwood Mac....Take this band to your hearts because when the mould breaks .....it will be the end of music! Nigel H Seymour
Agreed, this is one of the best damn live performances ever 👏, literally!!!!!!
Not taking anything away from that amazing guitar solo by Lindsay Buckingham, but Mick Fleetwood is an absolute demon on the drums! And he's clearly having a blast!
April 1st, 2022.... as of today this is one of THE most amazing on-stage performances to me! Everyone is giving 120%... This is music, handmade, no drum-computer and, most importantly: passion!
So nice to hear real human talent and not computers and electronics. This is the last of an era when skills talent and passion actually meant something!! It all compliments each other so smoothly.
!00% pure music...
Your statement is right on target!👍
Amen, None better!
Love Them!
Fleetwood cares so much about each drumstick strike, it's an obsession.
Lindsey is one of the best guitarist ever. 🎸
Mick Fleetwood always looks like he's having the time of his life drumming.
Micks eyes are running the show, the rest of his body is on catch up. Fair play to the man:-)
It is him who got me into drumming in the 70's, still am.
That's cause most of the time he is coked off his head. 😅
Love him
So was Peter Criss from Kiss, and both of them are legends and my favorite drummers ever!!!!@ Underrated and underappreciated
Fabulous on so many points
I watch this video almost every single day and always love it
I'm 73 now and I can still remember how in the mid 70' when this album helped me get through one of the most intense emotional crises I've ever been through. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words. Life has moved on wonderfully since then. Hope your life is good too.@@luispedrolicea
ME TOO WITH RUNNING UP THAT HILL
Agree Hope your doing better
Got that right my brother
I'm 72 and I still remember how good Fleetwood Mac is. Rest in peace Christine 🙏🙏
I'm an old man now..no expert in music..never been but.. I'm allowed to give my opinion..this is like a baby..its a creation..it never existed before these people came together..gave birth to something that is still here 40 years later.. collaboration... building... social evocative...spiritual.. emotional.. moving... beautiful..this is Godly.. light.. creation! Love
Beautifully put, Marek!
@@natbarron thanks.. love.. 😊❤️
If you like and play this song, you are not an old man (!)
@@natbarron❤
LOOOOOVE how you put dat YAH!!!!
what a performance, what a song, what a band!!! gotta love it!!!
Christine and Stevie knew this was a special performance. They all knew and sunk right into the song.
One of the greatest songs ever made, by one of the greatest rock bands in history! Your music will last forever, thank you Fleetwood Mac, true artist! RIP to the great Christine McVie, will never be forgotten
Top 5 all time. Lyrics top 3. Wow.
You should have heard them back in their early days when Peter Green was the guitar player. They were much more of a blues band then; Green was an incredible blues guitarist. Look him up online if you're into great guitar playing.
who ?
Nicky was behind their best work imo.
That guitar solo from Lindsey,,dudes talented asf
Lindsey Buckingham...one of the greatest guitarists that ever walked the face of this earth. Rest in peace Christy. She was Amazing
He is ok.
Yes Lindsey is a great guitarist. Not taking anything away from the others that have played with them in his stead but it just seems that it always takes 2 guitarists to take his place when he's not with them.
@@MrTruckerf he is better than ok
@@kevinlangley9644 Because the bastard can play fingerstyle. I cannot due to cerebral palsy.
But was he really playing? Couldnt hear his guitar but one of the backing guitarists...
Been to lots of concerts, they are in the top 10.
What a beautiful sound by that talented group. Those days are amazing and gone.
Buckingham remains one of the era’s great guitarists, unquestionably.
Lindsey Buckingham is one of the most underrated musicians of all time!
LINDSEY
Underrated is the most overused term on youtube
yes! that for sure! nobody talking 'bout him. why so??
@@raimundwessinger9700 Because everyone worships Stevie Nicks when Lindsay was arguably more important to the band!
@@Bawitdabadabangdadang Lindsey
Is there any other band who could make music like this? The perfect lyrics, the perfect instrumental, the perfect look, the perfect tension....just perfect
Shout out to Mick Fleetwood
It’s all about having FUN
and then everything else falls into Place.
Thanks for all the good memories
❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
I could watch Mick Fleetwood beating the drums all day. The energy, pain, intense look and excitement on his face as he strikes every beat of the drums. He really gets into the music.
mate hes on drugs haha
@@sadslippysidverysad731 he was sober by the 90s. lost his money to coke and stopped.
@@kier1563 "Animal" from the Muppets was surely based on Mick !!
EXACTLY !
God help that drum kit!!!!
What a song
What a band
What a performance!!! Total class!!!👏👏👏👏👍
Couldnt agree more..!!
Indeed ✔️
I love the bass in this song
I'm so happy that I grew up with the best rock and roll music ever 🎉🎉
One of the ABSOLUTE BEST live performances EVER!!
Stevie and Lindsey essentially having a lover's quarrel right there in front of the world. Amazingly great.
Yup I saw it too; it was a little more intense than that, with Christine just looking sad. At one point Stevie walks towards the drummer-was he the one she had an affair with? Amazing group dynamics. Fantastic performance. Stellar all around
@@vrc2836 Yes, Stevie had an affair with the drummer
Stevie turns to face him at the crucial point of the song and Lindsey kind of screws up his face to dare to glance at her .
Lindsey wrote this song and Stevie said in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine "I very much resented him telling the world that 'packing up, shacking up' with different men was all I wanted to do," she told Rolling Stone. "He knew it wasn't true. It was just an angry thing that he said.
That's what made it great as well as how amazing they all are, but the weird starring chemistry between Stevie and Lindsay!!! Lol
Well, I love all of them, but Stevie and Lindsay were an item for years, so who knows 🤷♂️ what is true or not? I am not here to worry about a soap opera!!! Lol
This is still the best Version of this song I heard
My favourite band by far
There will never be another Fleetwood Mac without Christine's brilliant harmonies. RIP pretty angel.
❤
Christine's stunning piercing blue eyes round off her whole performance 😘😘
Christie is better. Rip.
Mick Fleetwood,
One of the best on the drum 🥁 kit ever!☮️
R I P Christine ❤
we all miss and love you 🌺💕
I saw Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac in a pub in Wood Green , London , England 🏴🇬🇧 in 1967/8
Absolute classic. Outstanding performance from the entire band. And they performed with such verve, joy, and commitment. I love this track!
Their best concert, IMO. ❤
25 years since this performance and this song is still one of the greatest songs of all time and Lindsey Buckingham is one of the best guitar players on the planet and a musical genius!!!!!
Agreed, and Lindsey is very probably one of the most underrated guitar players of all time
Jepp, agree
These were Yankee rubbish Post Peter Green…….Yuk!
It's actually 45 years old the song that is not this performance
From automotive perspective , would call it full boost !
The incredible thing about Lindsay Buckingham's style is the way that he doesn't just play the guitar, he becomes part of the guitar and he extracts sounds that are otherwise impossible.
Lindsey Buckingham is no joke on the guitar
Even if the song was against him, he out preformed it.......
Top 10 solos, and according to my knowledge he never did solos prior to this....
He is incredible! I mean!! Wow ❤❤❤
Yes man and machine become one ...
One Hell Of A Song ♥️
45 years later and i still get goosebumps! 🤩
Same here..!!
I know..right?! Amazing!
I listen to this song .at the Gym..it Drives me.
Where done? Were you there?
Thanks for all your music Christine McVie. Rest in peace. You will be greatly missed ❤️🧡💛💚💙
