This Saturday evening 8:25 till 9:30 UK time…on BBC2 (tv)..
“Fleetwood Mac at the BBC”.
A celebration of one of the most successful Anglo-American bands of all time
with a look into the BBC archives for Fleetwood Macs finest performances..

Presumably Live performances at the BBC.
Not sure if this has been on before
It’s followed by Fleetwood Mac: Don’t stop..
(which has been on loads of times)

The archive material maybe worth a look

No big surprises…usual stuff and clips.
Apart from a late 60s clip of Jeremy singing Linda.
(Very Buddy Holly in style)
Which I hadn’t seen before.

Thanks Sue. Might still try to check it out somehow.

When I see "BBC" and "Fleetwood Mac" I think of a segment on Later... With Jools Holland a few years back when the host asked Mick Fleetwood what it felt like to be a guitarist in such an influential band.

It was funny seeing Peter and Danny singing backup to Jeremy’s lead on Linda..

How strange Jools Holland making such a faux pas….
He must know Mick.
(He’s also a very good musician)

It looks like someone posted a video of "Linda" on YouTube. The sight of Danny and Peter singing backing vocals is quite amusing. Danny isn't even playing guitar.

Someone here mailed me a FM BBC doc DVD, years ago, that refused to play in any device. I've never been able to throw it away, though. :lol:

Not sure if it's a region issue, or what...

Need a region free player! That's all... Glad you still have it.
