Thanks for posting all that info, kowk. A 2-disc bootleg of that June '68 Carousel Ballroom show has been around for a number of years, and a boot of the Helsinki show has been around for awhile too. I always assumed the more recent Helsinki Carousel collection was just a combination of tracks from those two earlier boots, but if that version of "I Loved Another Woman" does come from Helsinki Carousel then maybe I was wrong and there are some different tracks on there as well.

There's actually a nice review of Helsinki Carousel by well-known music reviewer Richie Unterberger on this webpage: http://www.richieunterberger.com/summer2004albums.html
Also check out his review of another Mac boot, Dead Bust Blues, from New Orleans in early 1970.

I see that Helsinki Carousel is sold by some places that do sell bootlegs - for example, Saturn Records shows it if you search under "fleetwood mac": http://www.saturnrecords.com/
It may well be available for download from someplace too, I haven't checked.

I don't have Helsinki Carousel myself - are there other Ledgies who might have it who can confirm whether the YouTube clip of "I Loved Another Woman" that Wouter linked to is from Helsinki Carousel? If it isn't, I'd sure like to find out where it did come from!
