That said, my third favorite FM record is Kiln House. Good night.
Fweetwood Mac. As the brits call themselves.

Oh, I doubt that.

I fired up an old computer last night, and discovered TONS of........videos, that I'd forgotten about. Put them all on a thumb drive, and have them on the newer machine now!

That reminds me I had several MiniDV cassettes from early 2000s, that never transfered to digital files. I lost many home videos from parties and trips.

These aren't homemade videos. Those are on VHS.

These are from the golden age of file sharing sites. You could find almost ANYTHING on there. I kept getting viruses from the downloads, so I eventually stopped. But man, there was some good stuff!!!

Reviving the 50th anniversary theme:

the first concert outing for Fleetwood Mac #10 half a century ago tonight in El Paso.

https://glidemagazine.com/video/50-y...fleetwood-mac/

Have any contemporary newspaper reviews of that first gig emerged?

Wow, really something. I wish I could go back and see this tour especially this early on. They were about to take off with rocket fuel. In 1975 they were playing small towns, small theaters and colleges. The following year they were on a stadium tour with the Eagles, had a #1 album and Rumours was not even released yet.

The fidelity is not terrific, but I found this, which was released before the concert.

Great find, thanks!

"Miss Nicks provides a second female vocalist to the band, giving the group an even more special sound than before" does sound rather prescient.
