Fleetwood Mac - Swing Auditorium, San Bernardino, California, February 19th 1971
(Peter Green reunion)

1. Station Man
2. Get Like You Used To Be
3. Dragonfly
4. Purple Dancer
5. I'd Rather Go Blind
6. Tell Me All The Things You Do > Psychedelic Blues Jam (fades out)

John Mcvie, Mick Fleetwood, Danny Kirwan, Christine Perfect, Peter Green.

After Jeremy Spencer left Fleetwood Mac in February 1971 without a warning to the band, Fleetwood Mac asked Peter Green to rejoin the band, cause some gigs were booked and they need somebody to replace Jeremy....so Peter agreed to temporary tour with them again.

Pretty nice and clean audience recording, short set.

1st generation cassette > behringer ultra curve pro deq 2496 equalizer > tascam cdrw750 > plex tool professional XL > wav > flac.

I don't remember if this was seeded here before, i got this tape in trade 20 years ago, is it a great classic so i think many of you will be pleased to have this show.

Thanks, Brian! I'm headed right there!

Isn't this a soundboard? I have this CD. It sounds like a soundboard to me. I'd grade my copy as a B+. Is this an upgrade?

It is the same copy that at least I've had before. The sound quality and track timings all match. I believe it doesn't come from a first generation tape, as Merely A Portmanteau has two songs from the soundboard of this concert in FAR superior sound quality.

Here's an mp3 sample so you can check it out yourself:

Thanks, Gaius. Yes, I have that "Dragonfly" too. It sounds like the exact same quality as my copy. It's definitely a soundboard. although it still has that same background hiss.

Just shamelessly plugging my own seed:

Fleetwood Mac:
1971-02-19
Swing Auditorium, San Bernandino, CA

Lineage: SBD? > ? > vinyl bootleg "Merely A Portmanteau" > CD-R > EAC > FLAC

01. Station Man 7.25
02. Tell Me All The Things You Do 18.29 (LONGER THAN THE EARLIER TORRENTED VERSION)

Credits: Sharksfan2000 who traded for this with me.

This is a companion torrent to 38f's seed here at Dime: http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=66464
In spite of being sourced from vinyl, the sound quality is notably superior to the torrent that 38f seeded, however, unfortunately only two songs were preserved on this vinyl bootleg.

38f requested that I should combine these two tracks with his torrent, I chose not to do so because I prefer to keep these sources (since they are different) separate myself. In short, I'm just being lazy. However, if someone else wants to combine the two sources and torrent the whole thing here, do go ahead.

Fleetwood Mac fans thought for years that these two songs on the MAP vinyl bootleg were recorded at BBC sometime in 1970. However, when they got their hands on the longer (but poorer in quality) recording of San Bernandino 1971, it was noticed that the two songs on MAP actually come from that concert.

___________

From a post by Sharksfan2000 at the Ledge (THE Fleetwood Mac message board):

"I tried this evening to compare more carefully the San Bernadino disc and side 2 of "Merely a Portmanteau". Very interesting!

"Station Man" is almost certainly the same performance. I'm pretty sure that "Tell Me All the Things You Do" is as well, but it's harder to tell since I believe the version on the disc has been edited (aside from fading out before the end). The later parts of TMATTYD have some differences, and I was getting tired of comparing them - maybe I'll try some more tomorrow. As I say, I'm pretty sure some editing has taken place. Comparing Christine announcing the song and the beginning of the actual playing - there's more between the announcement and the band actually starting to play on "Portmanteau", but it sounds like that part's been edited out on the disc version.

The sound on "Portmanteau" is considerably better than the disc. Must have been too many poorly dubbed tapes before the show made it onto cd-r."

___________

For some weird reason Christine's goodbyes to the audience are found at the beginning of "Station Man", then the song itself starts as in the companion torrent. There's also a funny comment right after "Tell Me All The Things You Do" fades out, it has nothing to do with the recording itself but I just left it there because this is how I received my CD-R copy; you can edit it out if it bothers you.

If the complete set in the same quality as these two tracks ever turns up, please share it!

Ah...the old friend San Bernadino '71. I wouldn't call it a classic, though.
Peter Green only plays rhythm guitar on it (if it IS him, but who else could it be, with Jeremy departed). The other circulated spring '71 are more exciting, but the quality is terrible...

Old threads should be resurrected once in a while:

14 Peter Green says thanks, announcer outro + crowd noise 0:19

Peter Green - guitar, vocals
John McVie - bass
Mick Fleetwood - drums
Jeremy Spencer - guitar, vocals
Paul Butterfield - harp (where noted)

There are minor channel fluctuations in a few spots but this mostly sounds spectacular with a very 60's sounding mix (vocals in one channel and guitars in the other). To be able to hear Paul Butterfield with Fleetwood Mac is a highlight but Peter Green sounds really great too!

I have heard that this was posted back in the STG era, but this version has been remastered with the sets separated better between discs and some minor "nip and tuck" type edits. No EQ or noise reduction was used in the remastering process.

From Peter Green's stage comments, this is from one week into Fleetwood Mac's first U.S. tour and he sounds like he's having a really good time on the last night of a 3 show run with Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane. This is presumed to be the last night because Peter Green makes a comment about how they'll be back in 2 weeks (not the following night). I think that they returned to the Carousel on the 22nd or 23rd of June.

A Dime member offered to create some cover art and it contains some rare cover photos that came from another Dime member so thanks to both of them and to the original source for this terrific recording!

I should mention that the poster for this concert was one of the strangest designs ever. It was a rendition of some medals that was supposed to be cut out and worn. I guess you'd have to see it to understand the concept...

Let's not forget that Peter dragged along Nigel Watson who played congas.

If anyone's got this set, would they be so kind as to re-seed it on Dime?

Or, even more kind, upload it to YouSendIt or something, since it's just six tracks? And since my Dime account got deleted for inactivity while I was out globetrotting...

Some folks over on AMFM would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance to whomever can come through!

Yeah, and I can't get signed up to dime. I keep getting the message that there are over 93.000 members..............

[macfan 57]

Does anyone still want this show? I have it, but it's not a bit torrent. I got it in a trade a few years ago. I can upload it to YouSendIt if anyone is still interested.
