Pre-Rumours songs in Rumours-era shows?

BrokenWing · #1 07-02-2004, 11:37 PM

Curious question--does anybody know which pre-BN Mac songs, apart from the well-documented Oh Well and Hypnotized, were performed at early BN-era shows? I saw an old review someone posted on the Rumours forum that mentioned Station Man and Spare Me A Little Of Your Love, but was that it?

Lots & lots, & luckily lots & lots are on tape, including The Green Manalishi, Rattlesnake Shake, Oh Well, Station Man, Tell Me All the Things You Do, Sunny Side of Heaven, Spare Me a Little, Believe Me, Hypnotized & Why. There apparently were others, but these are actually on tape & therefore provide solid evidence.

Just recently on another board, someone semi-confirmed that they also played:

Bob Welch's "Angel" (Christine on vocals) and Danny Kirwan's "Child Of Mine" (Lindsey on vocals).

I said "semi-" because I'd previously heard that they played both of those tunes with Stevie handling lead vocals on both.

But, this confirmation sounds a bit more realistic. The person who originally told me about these tunes probably couldn't take his eyes off of Stevie so when she sang the harmonies, he probably assumed she was singing lead.

There's a little nagging vague recall in the back of my mind that they played "Black Magic Woman" (Lindsey vocal) in 1975 when they played Anaheim Stadium and opened for Loggins & Messina/Rod Stewart & Faces.

I have a CD boguht in Spain, kind of a bootleg with part of a concert from the white album days. Station Man and Hypnotized were included.

Got a pointer to the 'other board' posting in question, Steve?

I have "Jumping At Shadows" on a rather low quality boot labelled "San Diego '75".

Revisiting this thread two years down the line:

Does anyone (David) have a note of which boot actually has a Rumours-era "Rattlesnake Shake" on it?

A "second" from me...I've never seen any boots with Lindsey's take of "Rattlesnake Shake" (although I've seen them play it in person a number of times)...and I sure would like to have one. {hint, hint}

With you *all* the way, there, mate

It's going in our setlist as soon as I do

Spare me a little is also in that CD, but not Rattlesnake Shake. I've never heard a Rattlesnake Shake version of the Rumours lineup, and as long as I remember, Mick didn't mention that song in his book, about being playing by the Rumours lineup.

I witnessed it a number of times.

Sadly, up to now, there hasn't been any recordings circulated of them playing it.

Whast about Tell Me All The Things You Do from Kiln House?

chiliD · #13 09-13-2006, 01:39 PM

David mentioned it in the very first response to the original post of the thread.

There are a couple of boots circulating with TMATTYD. A tour rehearsal and the Feb 22nd show from Philly come to mind immediately.

UGH! Here I thought I was gonna look smart, OOPS just the opposite. Steve, I always know I can count on u to correct me...

In 1975 the band also performed Christine's "Get Like You Used To Be," but that wasn't a Fleetwood Mac song. It was originally recorded by Chicken Shack.
