I probably have all of these outtakes/rehearsals, but I was still disappointed to see that all those old download links are dead.
I love Mirage for what it is.Though it took me a long time to fully appreciate some of Lindsey's contributions, the album is a very enjoyable listen. It really needs to be given a rehab and re-release. It could include bonus material such as Goodbye Angel, Blue Monday, If You Were My Love etc...

Obviously, the remasters of Rumours, White, and Tusk, didn't provide the numbers necessary, to remaster Mirage. Unless somebody like Rhino does it, I seriously doubt it will ever happen. |

If you guys want my "redux" of Mirage, I cleaned up the tracks as best I could. Send me a PM.

Just as a random example, The Byrds are one of those bands. Every single album they recorded (many many more than Fleetwood Mac) were re-released. Sales figures were not the main objective. The objective was to honor a seminal, historic band by making their catalog of music available in the best manner possible. Then again, there are many lesser known bands and artists, with significantly smaller fan bases, whose albums are deemed worthy of re-release, even if their market base is severely limited. But Fleetwood Mac is not that kind of band!!! They have a f*cking world-wide fan base. And even if a fraction of that fan base purchases a 30-year old re-release of a previously recorded album, there is going to be an acceptable profit margin. Certainly remastering, manufacturing, distribution and marketing factor in. But that's nothing compared to the costs inccurred in recording the original work. There is absolutely no practical reason or justification for Mirage not being re-released. I think, for a band of their stature, Fleetwood Mac's catalog has been poorly mismanaged. The blame falls mainly on their management and their record company, but the band member are also somewhat culpable. They remain insultingly ambivalent.
