2009: The Year In Fleetwood Mac
 

I just thought it would be a good idea to keep a thread going that keeps track of Mac-related releases (music by Fleetwood Mac or its members OR covers by other artists) in 2009. I will update the list on my blog and here. I'm limiting it to Domestic (US) releases unless there are some Imports with new material.

So I hope this thread will be a good place for people to share Mac release info AND to discuss, putting these releases in 2009 Mac context. :]

Mick Fleetwood: Celebrity Playlist Podcast (iTunes) (Release Date: 03/17/09)

Didn't David Cook do a cover of "Little Lies?" I believe I heard it playing on a commercial for the show "Tell Me Lies."

I didn't think it was actually released, but I'll look that up. Thanks!

ETA: It doesn't appear to have been released for purchase.

Oh, and now Crash/Landslide is an official download single.

It must be David Cook's Mac year. He also recorded "Go Your Own Way" with Carrie Underwood to open the American Idol Experience at Disney World. Entertainment Weekly was clamoring for an iTunes release in the latest issue.

d'oh. that's why i put this together and then i forgot.

ETA: Updated above. thanks!

Is there a way this thread can be stickied? I think it's a helpful resource, even if people aren't using it as a comments space. . . and I'm sure I"m missing all kinds of releases, so this would encourage people to keep us all alerted.

First i've heard of this. I'm intrigued. Will have a look on itunes when I get home tonight. What is it??? Free podcast or chargeable??

Okay, sorted, i've found the thread.

COVERS/REMIXES

"Wild Heart" (track), Reviver by Abe Vigoda (iTunes)
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Abe Vigoda???? The Actor?

^^^it's a band named after the actor.

I can't help it...but, I can't stand Fleetwood Mac or Stevie Nicks covers.....just no comparison...

I think the only one I can remember really enjoying was that live cover of "Everywhere" by Vampire Weekend. I know people swear by Eva Cassidy's "Songbird" which is, no doubt, very fine, but, to me, doesn't compare to the original.

lordy that abe vigoda cover of Wildheart sucks...I'm not usually that harsh with music, but that is just awful. they turned it into a dirge...

listen at your own risk:
Abe Vigoda - Wild Heart

OMG! That was horrific! It made me want to punch my computer! How does covers work....did they have to get permission from Stevie to do that? I think Stevie should straight punch them in the throat for that!

Glad we brought this back to 2009 covers. Yes, that "wild heart" cover is not enjoyable. It makes you wonder why they bothered covering it at all.

anyone heard the cover of GYOW by Silverstein?

Im sure most of you got to see the Mac's Unleashed tour in the states, I am wanting to buy some F/Mac DVD's, here in Australia its really hard to find any DVD's of F/Mac or Stevie in our stores, just wondering if they have merchandise sales at their concerts, as I will be seeing them in Dec here, any suggestions would be great!!!

It was released October 13th.

(Not sure if I put this in the right spot -- feel free to put it where it needs to go!)
