40 Years

[sharksfan2000]

It occurred to me this evening that it's been 40 years since the beginning of the string of live recordings that stretch from the San Francisco Fillmore West shows on 2 and 4 January 1970 through the New Orleans Warehouse shows at the end of that month, the Boston Tea Party shows in February, the European tour shows in March, the live BBC set from early April, to the Chalk Farm Roundhouse show on 24 April. I think the recordings we have from those few months, variable sound quality and all, are many of the band's finest. And all in all, the live recordings show much more of what this band was capable of than the studio tracks.

Do others here feel that this was the peak period for the Peter Green-era Fleetwood Mac? Or do you prefer an earlier period to this one?
