my little demon
 

Does anybody else love this song? I think it is one of his best, but it seems to be hated or overlooked by others. I love the guitar and the live performance on the Dance. He really rocks it:nod:

I think it's the bee's knees. :D

Excellent tune.

I like it a lot. I would love to hear the studio version, I bet it is even more gloriously quirkyll!!!!!

The GOS version is the studio version, I think (and there's also a demo of it, as you probably know). No letdowns in there, except it’s in a slower tempo.

I think it was the necessary shocker for the audience during the Dance, and not just the intro. ‘S brilliant in any form. :nod:

Bees Knees for Sure!!!;)Sky

Re: my little demon
 

I love it.

And I love Lindsey Buckingham because he has a yen for novelty compositions that shrug off the standard rock concerns. He has a multiplicity of moods that come through with each song he pens. The lyrics of MY LITTLE DEMON scream anti-commercialism The music? Just ripe for the dance floor! It really, really rocks!.....

As usual, Buckingham’s swaggering guitar solos are the excitement on this track. They always take you on a thrilling musical journey. I like the fast DANCE version of MLD better than the unvarnished, as his axe dexterity is evinced by his time on the stage where he gives a raving, robust performance!

Ultimately, the band locks in with Stevie Nicks’ simultaneous combination of tones & tambourine, John McVie’s perfect pulse and Mick Fleetwood’s supersonic strokes!

MY LITTLE DEMON would make a good penultimate encore!

It kicks!
 

He fires that sucker UP on the Dance, dudn't he?! It's very structured, not sing-songy, kind of robotic sounding. Does that make sense? LOL

Bees knees? LMAO!!! I don't think I've heard that expression.

Oh Lord Child - my old age and the effects of being reared and living a significant part of my life in the drink happy but lovely city of New Orleans are showing. I forgot, he says sheepishly, that not only had I heard the GOS version, but I have a copy of it :eek: :laugh:

Love this one.:nod: I suppose I can possibly see why some people don't like it much, but why so many act like it's utter crap is beyond me. I love the quirky riff in between the verse lines (rocked by LB and Christine) and how awesomely LB and Stevie rocked the chorus!:nod:

I love My Little Demon. Lindsey AND Stevie put so much energy into it. And I love that funny intro.

:thumbsup: Love it! Great contribution from GOS to the Dance gig. I like the Dance version a little better. It really rocks out and has just enough quirkiness to stir things up. My teenagers liked that one a lot and they don't care much for the "oldies".

Love it
 

This song is actually the reason I now love FM, it was the song that made me laugh (the intro) when listening to The Dance in my dads car and I decided, hey this band is having so much fun, wonder what the rest of the tape sounds like, I was hooked.

I've got two versions that are supposedly from GOS. And, subsequently heard of a "demo" version.

One of the ones I have sounds vaguely like The Dance version, except with the obvious multi-overdubs...the other actually sounds more "complete" and has a prominent banjo part throughout.

Which is which?

The one that sounds almost identical to the Dance version is the demo, and the other is the unfinished, very rough studio take.

I wish I could have seen My Little Demon live; this song seems like it would kick butt at a concert, cause its so fast. That guitar solo at the end is incredible! Reminds me of Jeff Beck-- SCREAMIN'!!

Alas, I will probably never see MLD live... instead, I'll listen to 10 half-ass Stevie songs at the next show I go to that COULD instead be Lindsey tunes that actually sound good live. Oh well.

That is why it is called a Fleetwood Mac concert :cool:AND- I take it you refer to La Nicks' singing as being half assed as opposed to LB's playing on these songs :rolleyes:
