"You Won't Forget Me" 1975

Yes, I got into this song very late. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

What an incredible rocker from Stevie!!! There was that 26 year old girl belting out those angry lyrics, right after she had joined FM, but before she was a superstar. Just a pissed-off girlfriend ~ love it!!!

Although I love "All the Beautiful Worlds" (which incorporates the chorus), "You Won't Forget Me" stands on its own as a very strong example of Stevie's songwriting.

If only this song could have survived in some way, like if FM had decided to perform it in the 1975-1976 tours, making it a concert classic. "Rhiannon" made her the Rock Goddess, and "You Won't Forget Me" could have solidified it early on. "Gold Dust Woman" and "Sisters of The Moon", while rock songs, definitely were the of the more haunting, slower type. The early live versions of "Silver Springs" come closer to achieving what Stevie had already accomplished with "You Won't Forget Me".

What a lost classic...

i Que lastima!

I just discovered this song a few weeks ago myself and agree it could have been a killer concert staple if given the chance.

I've been listening to the BN shows from Birmingham and Tuscaloosa quite a bit since I downloaded them from BN.net...what great shows and the quality is remarkable considering they are from 1975. And I love the live version of IDWK.

How do you download those shows from BN,net? I could only listen to them. (I downloaded "You Won't Forget Me" from... another site).

Am I doing something wrong? I just had PLAY available on my iMac.

That "I Don't Want To Know" is KILLER!!!!!!

On my computer (a Dell PC), you right-click the mouse and several options come up. I click 'Save Target as' and choose what folder to put it in and then it asks if I want to run or save the file.

Thanks for the song, Mike, both versions. Cool to hear her all young and wild.

What I love is that it's Stevie-written and so fierce! Another glimpse into her early writing and performing.

Holiday, that doesn't work for Mac. Maybe someone will post those songs?

Thanks for the help, but it doesn't work for me. I have an Apple mouse, and all right clicking does is play the song.

I appreciate your help though. Thank you.

BTW, "Take Advantage Of Me" (which I easily DLed through a different site) is a fantastic performance by Stevie!!!!!

Javier wrote it, huh? It SO sounds like a Stevie song! Great different kind of song, yet she makes it her own.

(Wish I had "Farewell Failure")...

I haven't heard that one; it's the first time I've heard that title! Where can I download it?? Thanks for your help.

Me too, which is a better title.

mikebise 03-21-2010 07:03 PM

"Take Advantage Of Me", presumably written by Javier Pacheco, performed by Fritz, lead vocals by Stevie!!!

"Farewell Failure" is a live BuckinghamNicks song from January 1975, available on buckinghamnicks.net, except I can't figure out how to download it with my Mac.

That's odd, I have an Apple mouse also, yet when I right click, it brings up the option to "Download Linked File"

It's been quite awhile since I've uploaded anything, but I'm sure I can figure it out. I should be able to get those two BN concerts up for you on Wednesday evening.
