On recent tours (2014, 2019) I found "Gold Dust Woman" difficult to get through, and couldn't wait for the song to finish. It was way too long, and the GDW "dance" was just embarrassing. They could have performed another song or two if they'd shortened the song by about five minutes.
I gave away my 8-tracks a hundred years ago, and I've always regretted giving away the FM ones. About a year ago, I found Rumours 8-track in a thrift store. Now if I only had White, Tusk, Live, and Bella Donna(the LAST 8-track I ever bought) back.
