Much of what's so cool about the 1978 concerts is that the band was at the Tusk stage of its evolution. All those wonderful early takes on the TUSK DELUXE CDs were recorded at essentially the same time as these Summer 1978 concerts, and you can literally hear the continuity in the sound—from SECOND HAND NEWS onstage here to studio performances like THAT'S ALL FOR EVERYONE, THE LEDGE and ANGEL. By this time, you can really tell that the band had progressed beyond its earlier sound of blues rock and psychedelia. The earlier two albums had hippie sonics, like Levon Helm mixed with the Stones (McVie and Fleetwood always sounded a lot like Wyman and Watts in those years). But they played like different musicians starting in 1978, and their virtuosity and idiosyncrasy were more like the early Attractions albums.
