^ I have it.

Still annoyed that a version with audio has never surfaced. To my knowledge anyway. it's got to exist, don't you think?

You can get the audio back by doing what this video says

I've never run across any audio tape of these Days On The Green gigs. I doubt any of the home-movie camera footage like this has any audio because home-movie cameras that the general public was using in 1977 didn't have microphones. All our old home movies from the 1950s through the 1970s are silent.

I added another snippage of "World Turning" & something following that with Stevie in her top hat -- probably either "Go Your Own Way" or "Blue Letter":

Then maybe YOU are John McVie. After all you are always claiming to be with the Ban(ned). And Dave is right, no sound in the "movie camera's" back then. That's what they were called in those days.

I tried to do what the guy said in that video - but still cannot get sound. Is anyone having any luck with that?

Also, it is very easy to see how and why La Nicks became the focal point and then a huge star. She is so animated and beguiling - not to mention stunning looking. Interestingly, though way less animated today, she still does some of these same moves on stage.

Thanks for posting David!

This is so amazing. It's weird without the audio but man Stevie is in charge of the stage isn't she? A star is born!

Thank you for posting that David. I was too young to go to these shows when they were happening as I was only 13, but I love to see pics & videos.
I found a CD of this particular concert at Amoeba here in San Francisco a few years ago, and I love the show. Stevie still had that beautiful voice then.
I would love to see footage of their 1976 Days on The Green released. Those early tours with Stevie & Lindsey are my favorites.
