Acoustic Versions
 

First of all, I wasn't sure where to post this. But I decided on Lindsey to keep the area active lolz.

Anyhoo...I was wondering if anybody had acoustic versions of Lindsey/Stevie/Fleetwood Mac songs they were happy to share? I adore acoustic songs but I'm struggling to really find many Mac related versions. My iPod is sad because of this.

Jeremiah the iPod: *Sniffle*

Edit: I'm not looking for live versions unless audience "noise" is minimal. Can't enjoy a good acoustic songs when the fans are screaming so much that I have to turn my iPod right down to save my hearing lol.

Lemme guess: you started this topic based on my comment, like how I started that poll on appearance based on what Sahara said? :eek: No worries, I think I got some stuff.

This one here is Go Insane, but probably the first time he ever performed it live on tour. It sounds different, but I like it.



I'll probably think of more later.

Most of these are live, but they actually sound pretty good! They're all Lindsey, except for Gypsy, which is the one from AHI 2000. I figure a lot of Ledgies may already have it, but, hey, it's a good one! Also, Jeremiah ( that's your ipod's name??? ) will like this copy 'cause I gave it some artwork to show up when you flip through the album covers :thumbsup:

Anyways, Here's what I have:

Gypsy from AHI 2000:

Oooo...This is like Christmas in Download form :p Fankoo so much! *huggles* *Download happeh*

Edit: Yes, Jeremiah is my iPod :p I name alot of my inanimate objects lol. I don't know why. Just something I've always done. My last iPod was called Mortaquia.

LOL. I've always named my vehicles, and I'd probably name my guitar - if I had one, but I never would have thought to name my iPod...still, I think it's cool that you did :thumbsup:
-----------------------------------

OMG, I just googled Mortaquia, and your post was the first result!!! It was right beneath "Did you mean: Mortágua" :laugh::laugh:
---------------------------------

Well it did seem silly to yell at my iPod/Laptop (Vincent after Vincent Price) for going wrong without putting a name to it. And did Lindsey ever name his guitar? I'm sure I read that he did. Following a good example of naming random things if he does the same lol.

Hahaha! Glad to know my spelling error made the Google front pages XD

Oh and by the way, I already decided on a favourite of all these downloads. She Smiled Sweetly is just lovely!

Lindsey Smiling Sweetly !!!
 

Lindsfan,
Well said! :cool:That song IS lovely!!!
She Smiled Sweetly soothes me! C. :)

Thanks Cammie, but those were Silver Springs' words :D ( though I couldn't agree more!! ).

Are there any Demos/Acoustic releases from Lindsey's Go Insane album/era? I would love to hear some of them.

It's sad that Fleetwood Mac never did an MTV Unplugged recording.

Yeah, that would have been cool. It was my understanding that The Dance was supposed to be just that, originally, and that that's how the acoutsic version of SYLM came about. :shrug:
------------------------------------------------------

Yeah that would've been seriously awesome. They could've done the piano version of Rhiannon from the US Festival and retool tons of other songs too.

I suppose in a way they do performed unplugged versions of their songs, just not in the same show. Would be nice if they grouped a few of the standards (ie. Landslide, I'm So Afraid and Go Insane) with a few fresh and acoustic takes on others, such as Silver Springs, The Chain, Say You Love Me and Tusk for example would be incredible to hear.

I think 'Crystal' would be a great acoustic-LB and SN both singing and both playing guitar!

I have some old Buckingham Nicks demo-type stuff, but am not sure how to upload. (still new around here :laugh:)

I hope I uploaded this right. It's the first time I've used Mediafire
http://www.mediafire.com/?seoou8qm2rl62

Here's what I have

Hold Me (LB lead)
Cast Away Dreams (acoustic)
Big Yellow Taxi
Flying Down Juniper (acoustic)
Holiday Road (WBCN)
Save Me a Place (WBCN)
She Smiled Sweetly
Blue Turns To Grey
Buckingham Nicks (live and demos)

Thanks for the tip! Still trying to figure this out, should be up soon...

Not sure if it's what you're looking for but... I hope it works!

If you go to Lindsey's section on Throwndown.net, I have most of what's there. If it shows green on the meter, I probably have it. So, if you see something specific that interests you, let me know, and I can put it on mediafire. A lot of it is in .flac, so I'll have to convert it first ( unless you prefer .flac ), but that's no problem.

I'll try to post a few things here in the meantime though. :)

Soul Drifter ( 1993 - ABC's In Concert ):

More later this week...

Read a little at a time...baby steps :thumbsup: Like I said, I can upload any of it for you...or pieces of any of it!

I hope I havn't picked on a dead torrent or something. I never actually browsed torrents before. Anyhoo, these interested me from the link above:

* 1.02 Wrong (Edit)
* 1.07 Sorcerer (If it's just Lindsey but then again I may have misread the page entirely)
* 1.10 Bwana (Saturday Night Live, 06 February 1982)
* 1.17 Louie Louie (WLLZ Ultimate Sports Bar, Pontiac, MI 06 July 1992)
* 1.23 Silver Springs (Atlantic City, NJ, 29 November 1997) (Same as Sorcerer)

I'd have a whack at downloading myself (I don't have a clue how) , but I'd probably find a way of crashing and wiping my computer. I'm almost completely inept when it comes to technology.

I have those! Louie Louie is pretty rough, but if you're as quirky as you say you are ( and why wouldn't you be - lol? ) you'll like it! :D

Give me a day or two to convert and upload them ( I'm leaving for a meeting in a short while here... ).

Torrents are pretty cool, but they do take up a lot of PC space, and yeah, crashes aren't good :distress:

I LOVE your British slang...I mean that in a totally nice way, so please don't ever change it...it's very cool! :D I want to start using some of it myself.

Here's another mediafire for you. It's a .rar so you just have to open it up...

Spare me a Little - 4:52
Rhiannon - 6:39

Hypnotized - 7:06

OK, I didn't do Sorcerer, as per your request ( it's not just Lindsey ). I did put up Silver Springs, because even if it's not just Lindsey, he finishes the song for Stevie, so it's a must listen!

I'd like to hear that on-air performance of "Never Going Back Again" from Rockline on KLOS again. That was totally in the pocket.

I'd like to hear them finish Kiss and Run with Christine. The enhanced Tusk left me so unfulfilled there. Don't tease us like that!

Michele

I love that song! But, nobody can come even close to Shane McGowan's version:sorry:
