Yeah I’m going to defer to Christine on this one. “This is the first single we ever had from the uh…White Fleetwood Mac album……you can take me to paradise..”

WE know more about the band than "the experts", especially when it comes to a 48yo album. Do you think he's been debating crap about a dinosaur band for the past 48 years?

THIS!
If there ever was a mic drop statement. This is it.

What show, concert, etc. was that?

I think it's the Oh Diane video.

Its from Top of the Pops
Is that not some British version of American Bandstand?

If American Bandstand was a cringey mime-fest, then yes.

Oh, that's why I had never seen that clip. Top of the Pops was never aired in Peru. Midnight Special was, SNL too, but no TOTP.

By the way, correct me if I'm wrong but they look kind of bored.

It was. I dont think anyone ever sang live on American Bandstand. Chris performed 2 songs in 1984 but she lip synced like everyone else. The band would play or someone would dance around with microphone while people dancing badly would be around them. That's the feel I got from Top of Pops. But you got great TV time for promotion.

Good lord these shows are cringe fest material looking at them now. What did Lindsey say that one time about the steakhouse circuit..next stop Palookaville. This looks like what that kind of nightmare would be like

Yes, good point, also good point about none of us ever saw an actual U.S. 45. If you say it was a “single,” you need a 45 in the mid-seventies.

Second, in everything we’ve seen in Billboard, the industry rag, none of us has ever seen a mention of any single in 1975 other than “Over My Head.” No DJ who worked for AM pop radio in 1975 has ever reported that he tried to play Mac singles from the new album before “Over My Head.” We’ve just never heard this — and if it were true, it would be publicly true. The most I would buy is that the Reprise label wanted to release those other songs as singles and maybe tested them on a radio audience sample of some sort.

But this brings up another point. Was it common to release a single many weeks after the release of the album in 1975? That in and of itself is odd. The album was surely mastered and in the can by June 1975 if it was available July 11, so why didn’t they release a single at that time? We’re aware that the label had no high hopes for yet another Fleetwood Mac album and all that, but why not release a single promptly? I wish I could go back and read the opening sentences of Samuel Graham’s authorized bio of the band, but I no longer have the book.

The first show of the 1975 tour was May 15, that leg ended on June 8, the album was released on July 11, the second leg started on July 25, and there was a break between September 1 through September 12. Since Mick was managing the band, maybe they had to work on the radio mix around their tour schedule.
