Mirage live... thoughts?

[jmn3]

Yikes....I couldn't disagree anymore. The Mirage Tour Video has some of my favorite Fleetwood Mac live moments ever, in particular two that you mention: The Chain and Sisters of the Moon. I don't think there's been a version of The Chain that I find better than this one and Sisters is simply ridiculous (in a good way). I absolutely love that version of Go Your Own Way too....love the way Lindsey screams out some of the lyrics and I'm partial to Stevie's Mirage-era "assistance" throughout the tune! Gypsy and Rhiannon are pretty sloppy but still manageable in their own, it was 1982-way. I love the 1982 "I don't change and you don't change" lyrical adjustment in Rhiannon a LOT! Eyes and Love in Store, along with Blue Letter, YMLF, and Songbird sound great. Not That Funny could be deleted from existence in all forms and I'd probably not shed a tear.

Now, on the other hand, no Fleetwood Mac concert video is a cringe-worthy as the following one, that dreadful Tango in the Night concert video. I find that one to just be painful to watch and those Stevie close-ups that were edited in later are simply put, terrible.
