Wow is right. Great quality.
Are the captions on the videos correct? If so, the Mac performed 3 different times on the Midnight Special in 1976? Or were they each aired separately? Anyone know? According to the captions in the videos, each was peformed:

Over My Head performed 02/27/1976
World Turning performed 04/09/76
Why performed 06/11/1976

They are all wearing the same clothes, no? I believe the musical guests always performed more than one song each show so I am a bit confused.

This is the Fleetwood Mac I fell in Love with. I remember watching this in high school on Friday or Saturday nights. FM were so cool.

"there's no use in crying, it's all over"

Just when you think you've wept enough, this comes along to balm the soul. Thank you to whichever TV company it was for preserving this sliver of magic. I'll swear I can hear Christine much better in the three-part outro than in the boots I've seen of this. Such a shame they didn't play this in 2014/15- I even asked Mick to consider doing so when I met him once. "The hurt I feel will simply melt away.."

Much prefer this without the double-tracking.

Right near the end, just before Stevie begins her twirl, Mick is having trouble with a microphone on a stand and then he simply knocks it over on purpose. I never noticed this before today.

On the Christine 1984 concert video, Mick is the special guest. During World Turning, when he's holding his talking drum, the IDIOT is trying to lead some sort of jam between him jamming on drums, and Todd jamming on guitar, TRYING to direct them back and forth. The whole thing is pathetic, IMO. Todd never picks up on what Mick's trying to convey to him. And it's a complete flop.

It's sad that they never bothered to discuss it before the filming...
