Uncirculated Rumours

[fleetwoodtrick]

It's almost 1:00A.M.
I have to get up in about 5 hours, and I haven't slept a wink.
But I don't care...
BECAUSE I FOUND IT!!!
After scouring endless fansites and forums, I found it on the one I joined first... the Buckingham Nicks fanboard. Oh well, atleast I have the audio of it now!

I'm pretty sure that this is it in it's entirety, (woahhh, weird sentence!) but it's only divided into 2 discs, not like the original 3 LPs. The quality isn't so great, but that's all right. I was also surprised that there wasn't anything too new to me on here, but it's totally awesome to have!

I have all 3 original albums - each featuring Stevie artwork. These albums recall a time before the internet, when bootlegs and unreleased material was much more rare and less accessible. There were no "boards" or communities to immediately connect and share with.

If you were lucky, you'd go to a local independant record store and find some bootleg albums. It was an adrenalin rush when it happened.

Also, you had to respond to bootleg distributers you'd find in classified ads in magazines, such as Rolling Stone and other music rags. Usually they would send you a printed list of what they offered. Then you would have to write them back with you order and payment. You'd wait for the day it arrived in the mail box, usually on cassette tapes of varied quality.

It seems pretty primative compared to what we are currently used to now. We're still excited and grateful to download hundreds of concerts, demos, rarities, etc... But when they were truly rare, few and far between, and you had to work harder to obtain them, they were really treasures.

Uncirculated Rumours were one of those treasures. I recall being fascinated by, aside from the Stevie demos, the Rumours-era live version of Silver Springs.

I got mine that way, at a little dusty used record store in the East Village somewhere around 1987. I was in heaven, I couldn't wait to go home and play it. I was amazed at some of the songs, especially how creepy they sounded in the muted vinyl ('Mistaken Love', 'Silver Springs', 'Rhiannon'). Very moody. Very evocative to me of a certain place and time in my life.

I agree with everything you said here. I got my albums from Wynnco for like $70.00. I spent hours looking at the pics of stevie on the fake horse merry go round. I had seen one of those pics before from Creem, but nothing that size.
I found an ad in Goldmine Magazine in 1993 from a man in Hawaii and we started trading back then. We are still friends to this day.

i have all 3 on vinyl and yes that is silver springs from kansas city 1977 i believe its the only time the performed it until 1997 live. When i bought those three albums was dissappointed when i got home though they were professional and didn't realize they were boot legged recordings wont buy bootleg since then these albums were sealed only thing it didn't say her name or record label on them only pictures and songs listed on back each had different pics of stevie on them except they all had rhiannon stevie's painting with different colors i know i still have them have to dig them out
