Stevie said her dad's favorite song was Don't Let Me Down again. John McVie loved Crystal so much that it was his pressure to put it on Fleetwood Mac. Frozen Love is probably my favorite. I wonder if history would have changed if another song from the album was played instead of Frozen Love when Mick heard it. Frozen Love does demonstrate Lindsey's intricate playing.

"partial songs on my cassette tape" made me laugh, yeesh, that describes all my early 8os mix tapes! and then of course we have the inevitable song cut-off when the tapes reached the end of side A or B...

Interesting to imagine mick hearing a different song instead of frozen love. something like Lola My Love might not have caught his attention in the same way! so amazing how it turned out the way it did.
