Thanks for this!

I LOVE this version of "Eyes of the World", fun to hear those little bits of "Enchanted" in there too. Never too many versions of this song to be had, that's for sure!

I thought I had at least heard of most of the songs that were kicked around at this point, but I don't recall ever hearing of them doing "I've Been Loving You Too Long". Is there any backstory as to why this song? Were they actually considering it for the album, even though it's a cover? It's HOT, regardless of anything! And live it would have killed!

I definately agree. Eyes of the World goes overlooked too often. It's one of my favorites, so Im glad to get every version I can get my hands on, thanks!!

They're playing it live. It's not studio tracking. So maybe they were practicing during a tour rehearsal, not necessarily to put into a set but just out of boredom or to loosen up.

Beachwood Mac...

You're the greatest!

No wonder that dog with the tennis ball in his mouth, likes you so much!

(Work today isn't gonna suck...Woo Hoo...bring on the cat fights and backstabbing...!)

It is HOT!! HELL-O!

(I would guess they were just messing around in rehearsal...)

Freakin' Awesome!

Never heard this version before....LOVE THE KEYBOARDS!! Go Christine!

Mirage outtakes are so much better than the finished article....

Thanks for posting! I have another two disks of outtakes, probably a few repeated tracks, I'll upload them if anyone's interested?

by all means..... and i agree i love the outtakes...

Question: Got any CM outtakes? Thanks in advance...

Beachwood Mac · #14 02-06-2008, 01:44 AM

Glad you all are enjoying the outtakes. I'll post the two Mirage rehearsal discs I have tomorrow. I worked the polls in California today so the only thing I want right now is my bed. I can't think straight right now.

Oh, and as of today 257,623 people have viewed this thread!

Seriously, the Mirage album is a real low point for me, I just can't make myself like it, and the fact that things like If You Were My Love were left out wrecks my head! Though it does have some high points -- and they're really high. Hold Me and Gypsy spring to mind!

By CM do you mean Christine McVie? Sorry, I've had exams all week so my head is full of mush!

Outtakes on the way
