Favorite Instrumental Performance
Name your favorite top two performances by each player of an instrument in Fleetwood Mac, save Dave Mason (who only played certain songs on one studio album) and Mike Campbell (who did not play on any live or studio FM album). For me, it was especially hard to restrict two performances for Mick, Peter, and Danny. The performance could be from a studio or live album that was officially released. Here’s my list:
Peter Green — Before the Beginning; Black Magic Woman (original recording) Mick Fleetwood — Go Your Own Way; I’m So Afraid John McVie — Miles Away; Little Lies Jeremy Spencer — Preachin’ Blues (live, BBC); live-in-studio Crazy Bout You Baby (second solo) Danny Kirwan — Tell Me All the Things You Do; both Madge Jams Christine McVie — Crystal (organ); Born Enchanter (piano) Bob Welch — Future Games (arpeggios and jazz chording); Hypnotized (acoustic string guitar) Bob Weston — The City (electric slide); Why (acoustic slide) Lindsey Buckingham — GYOW; Rhiannon Rick Vito — As Long as You Follow; Save Me Billy Burnette — Love Shines; Talking to My Heart Last edited by aleuzzi; 12-28-2023 at 05:39 PM.. |

I’d also add what a great musical showcase Oh Daddy is. It’s not always the most loved of Rumours songs, but the musicianship is great. Johns bass is brilliant, Chris’ keys are brilliant. Micks drumming is gentle, restrained and just what is needed.

Oh Daddy is beautifully orchestrated start to finish.

It's shocking and hateful that we're not all devoting acres of space to the wonder of our mistress's tambourine playing
A special shout out for John's bassline on Say you love me. It's magical and just propels the song to another level, imho.

BTW, I did mention Stevie for her headbanging tambourine playing on The Chain (live). Nominees for best spoken part in a Fleetwood Mac song or video: Bob Welch for Bermuda Triangle - No matter what Chris and Mick thought at the time it was brilliant. When I was 14 I would listen in my dark room to this Bermuda Triangle story and it would scare me. It was almost like telling ghost stories mid song. Mrs Scarrott for Thoughts on a Grey Day Mick Fleetwood for Two Sticks and a Drum - Skies The Limit video The winner is******** Bob Welch for Bermuda Triangle
