David, first of all, what is amazing and scary about the Irvine show? I've never heard it...secondly, is there a soundboard available or just audience?

It's a show that I look back on with real fondness, Joe, but it may be just my off-kilter quality. I thought the band played & sang with ferocious power, with Buckingham & Nicks especially battling it out for supremacy in the decibel department --- her vocals & his guitar. I don't think I've ever heard Fleetwood Mac so committed & so liberated onstage, but the people I was with (one of them was the rock radio journalist Laura Gross) thought the performance was lackluster ... so go figure.

I'm not aware of any soundboard recording of it, & unfortunately the audience tape seems surprisingly subdued.

and is the one that made me a fan.

I LOVE the cleaning lady version and I would just love it if they would remaster this one so I could hear it clean w/o all the tape noise.

I had alway thought those extra vocals might be Stevie on another track? I have always wondered about that b/c I, too, wondered about Stevie's back-up singers on a FM record. I think the song would be better without them.

I love it when she sings "All I ever wanted was to know that you were dreaming.." and "the wind became crazy".

It is a most haunting song and I guess that's why I love it so much..
