I was a young kid when I became a fascinated fan of the band around the time of Rumours. I was extremely interested in how they sounded/reproduced the their songs in concert. Even in my limited knowledge, I could imagine that they would sound different from their over-dubbed and heavily crafted albums. Until then, their live sound was an intriguing mystery to me.

I stayed up very late on a school night (11pm!) because I knew a local radio station was going to premier the entire LIVE album --the anticipation was very exciting. Needless to say, I was so happy to finally hear an entirely different version of the band.

I liked the fact that they had a heavier sound, and that people who'd dismiss them as lightweight might change their perspective. The single "Oh Well" was heavily played on the radio, and I was gratified to see my friends loving the song, and their surprise that it was Fleetwood Mac.

I found it peculiar that some songs weren't on the album - The Chain, Gold Dust Woman, Sisters of the Moon, Tusk, You Make Loving Fun, etc... It's not a traditional live concert album in any sense, but I loved it anyway, and still do.
