FM Favorite Lineups

[Denmeister99]

I Know I'm in the minority here, but my favorite FM lineups are the
Then Play On and Kiln House versions of the band.

I think the full length version of the Madge session on "The Vaudeville
Years" is one of the best jams I've ever heard. You can see why Mick
thought Peter was in the Clapton-Page-Beck mold and their equal. I have
to agree he's at his very best on this track. I also love the retro-rock that
Jeremy does on Kiln House and his solo LP. With Chrissie replacing Peter the
3 part harmonies they did were great.

My holy grail of lost FM tracks is the b side of the Jeremy Spencer
single "Linda" called "Teenage Angel". This is the studio version of the
live track from the Boston Tea Party performances. Why it was left off
Jeremy's Solo LP I don't know. I have a copy of the 45 but talk about
surface noise, it's really hard to listen to.

In addition the b sides "World In Harmony" and "The Purple Dancer" are not availabe on CD in their original version that I know of. Alternate versions have appeared on some compilation CDs but as far as I know, both have only appeard on the German release LP "The Best of Fleetwood Mac", which I have a copy of, plus the original 45s, but nowhere else.

Any suggestions on where to find CD quality versions of these tracks?
