Spare me a little Live 1975

Fleetwood Mac – Spare me a little of your love Live 1975



This is a Christine song from the Bare Trees album. The period of 1971-72 was nothing less than chaotic for Christine McVie. After joining Fleetwood Mac permanently in 1971, she was spending 24 hours a day with husband John– which was something our lovely Christine was not used to, due to the fact that she had come out of early retirement of being a housewife and didn’t see John nearly as much then. It was in these years that Christine had a « barely concealed » affair with Bare Trees engineer Martin Birch after John’s drinking routine became stronger and stronger. At this time, they decided to give their bumpy marriage another go.

Why not lie here in my arms And listen to the night You must know you have certain charm And I feel the time is right I think that the third line « You must know you have certain charm » is referring to the fact that Martin IS married, and Christine is too…but Martin’s vibe is so strong that she really cannot resist.

The « time is right » because John is so « out of it » and Martin is just the thing she needs to break away for now.** So spare me a little (just a little bit) Spare me a little (just a little bit) Spare me a little of your love (or your love) Spare me a little (just a little bit) Spare me a little (just a little bit) Spare me a little of your love (of your love) Lauren had a lot of good ideas on this one. Christine isn’t asking for a lot, just a little bit of John’s love, which she hasn’t seen for a long time. It is thought that …

why so many photos of Stevie? It’s Christine’s song, and Stevie and Lindsay weren’t even in the band yet! Stevie can’t hold a candle to Christine! What a voice!

Great tune from an awesome band, but where’s the guitar in the heart of the song and the solo? Could hear everything else great in the mix but only really heard the guitar in the ride out…too bad !! Love the Mac !!

That was the time when songs contained great exciting arrangement, riffs harmonies end melodies…. Love the band

I’m actually making that kind of music, or at least using many of the 1970′ s elements.

Lady steals my heart. Ive always thought Christine was a Big part of The Mac. The band’s second album, Mr. Wonderful, was released in August 1968. It was an all-blues album that featured Christine Perfect (McVie) of Chicken Shack. Check out the artwork on Kiln House, Macs fourth album. Shes been there from the beginning.
I got to see her in Denver 82 when she came through with a group called The Zoo, Mick on drums, WHAT A PREFORMER. All McVie the whole night,
Beautiful.

As I listen to this wonderous piece, I’m whisked back to the carefree 70′s, and how life was so different. Christine’s voice and brilliant hooks are great. But, what makes this song awesome is the backbone of the group, the rhythm section of John and Mick. They drive, Christine asks if you want a ride. It’s Friday after 5, sun is shining, you kick off the weekend with a fine bottle of wine, and you got Spare me live comin thru the speakers, along with other Mac favs- now that’s the high life!

Spare me so many stills of stevie nicks while christine mcvie is singing a song from pre-stevie album – if you had video clips i would understand, but this is not necessary…we could worship christine just as well, especially since there are plenty of pictures of her from the seventies available
