Thank you for all sharing. To clarify my original question though...
Why do you think they've never performed "Crystal" live?
Too challenging to reproduce live (ala "Sara")?
Too "emotional" for them to do (ala "Sara")?
I'm just curious to know if anyone has any speculations
as to just exactly why this gem has yet to see the light of day live.
Do we know for certain that they never played it? Maybe they played it during their first year or two of touring. It's perilous to discount something like that. Nobody in this country (USA) ever thought Fleetwood Mac played "That's Enough for Me" until a tape surfaced from the Wembley shows with that song on it.

I don't think "Crystal" would be challenging to present live. In fact, just the opposite: it would be a very suitable song to perform live because it's arranged very traditionally.
