How often you watch Fleetwood Mac videos?

As for solo, I have watched Stevie's 1986 Red Rocks show so many times I am bored of it, and I have watched almost all of Lindsey's Soundstage...

Dude. I'm shocked. Seriously. It's one thing if you don't have these vids, but you have them & haven't ever watched them in their entirety? I should smack you with a ruler.

Like many of you, I don't seem to have time anymore. But I'm transferring a bunch of VHS tapes to DVDs for a fellow Ledgie right now, so I've been watching more often lately. Watched Rock's Family Trees (or whatever it's called) recently, along with a lot of TV clips. I watched The Dance & LB's Soundstage as soon as hubby bought the giant TV & surround sound.

I hate The Dance. I think as a band, it was one of the biggest mistakes they ever made - it made them almost has-beens and a novelty act. Christine looks like she is about to hurt someone as well.
It did wonders for Stevie's career though...

My work here is done.


Now, if I could just convince the world that Time was every bit as legitimately Fleetwood Mac as any other album....

I really need to post the LA Times (I believe it was the LA Times) article that I have at home, that discusses how important it was for Fleetwood Mac to re-establish their image to the public, and to reclaim their position as one of pop/rock's supergroups, after "years of replacement members tarnished their image."

The LA Times is full o' crap and only worth wrapping fish in.

Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham WERE "replacement members", too, ya know.

You know I agree with you wholeheartedly, buddy. I think what makes the difference is that Fleetwood Mac wasn't really a household name in the US before Lindsey & Stevie, and most people didn't really know the band members by name either until then. Their "supergroup" status started with the 'Rumours' lineup.

In the UK it was a different matter, of course.

I guess I have a different definition of "supergroup" than most. To me a "supergroup" is when members of different well-known groups join to form another band. (like CSNY, or Blind Faith, or Asia, etc)

Buckingham Nicks was for all intents an unknown entity when they joined Fleetwood Mac.
