Viv, your recordings?

Plus, I'm still looking for some RAL Rhiannons if you guys have them. Thanks!

Here is a good Rhiannon - not the best from the RAL tour but gives you an idea how she did them during that tour.

These RHIANNONs are probably the only time a French horn has been anywhere near any member of Fleetwood Mac onstage since 1967.

Okay I've discovered there are two essential version of Rhiannon. Largo 1975 covers the earlier period the best. But Los Angeles 1982 (Mirage Video) is a lot different and is equally good, if not better. Lindsey's soloing throughout this video is his best ever, I think, and in some respect it makes 1982 the best-ever year for live Mac. And Lindsey's fire seems to energize the rest of the band (and vice-versa), so that everyone--Stevie includes--is playing really hot.

So you need this Rhiannon too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkU5V0bH-eE

And walk across cut glass if you need to, but get that Mirage video. It has essential versions of Rhiannon, I'm So Afraid (Stevie singing high harmony instead of joint melody), Sisters Of The Moon, Gypsy, The Chain, Blue Letter, Eyes Of The World, and Go Your Own Way (though the Japan 1977/Young Music Special Go Your Own Way is the best, or at least tied with this one). And though it's not my favorite song, I think You Make Lovin' Fun here is as strong as I've ever heard it.

I have the Mirage DVD and this version never ceases to amaze me. I'm going to rip it onto my iPod from YouTube though... thanks for the HQ link!

Stevie was backstage kibitzing during "I'm So Afraid." She was almost always offstage in those days for "Oh Well," "Not That Funny," "Never Going Back Again," "What Makes You Think You're the One," & "I'm So Afraid."

Christine sang harmony on "Afraid."
