Its like Ann Wilson got standing Arena full ovations and. Chants for more...i heard her say that all the press would say was the once beautiful raven haired siren is now replaced by a big monsterl..dismissing her jaw dropping performances. 1990 or 1991...LA Forum sold out. First time i saw Ann in person, up close...frankly, i was surprised too...thanks to video fx...but only for a flash...she was a siren...and she rocked that show with vocals and stage performaces...

Same with Stevie...i wonder how long the critics stayed...or how they would bee so seperated by the crowd under Stevies spell. What other Rocks Star just threw her insides and her soul out to the crowd during the her gibberish, speaking in tounges...tortured screaming vocals....please. hard times, sad times, hard living...the whole reason she has a huge loyal generation spanning following.

The overwhelming consensus among the "legitimate press" (whom David is defending) said that Stevie was the WEAKEST LINK in Fleetwood Mac. Her solo career destroyed Fleetwood Mac, her voice was terrible, she was an ego-maniac, just being on-stage next to the perfection of Christine McVie was an abomination....

"Legitimate critics" HATED Stevie.

Everone is a critic...then there are some called critics under job title but...

They are like my Great Aunt Mary. Criticizing, bitchy, whiny jerks that should just be put to sleep.

Imagine someone saying Mother Teresa should get her nails done if she deals with the people and press and her publicity?

See what i mean?

The critics loved Lindsey as much or more than Christine.. a love affair that continues pretty much unabated to this day.Like I posted on the Lindsey forum the inide critics that panned IYD will heap praise on Seeds We Sow .

Thanks for sharing! The version of SOTM on 06/13/1980 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands is really good quality. Do you happen to have the whole show? And are you willing to share? The reason I ask is I have the whole show but they sound like a bunch of smurfs and it was my first Mac concert. Thanks!

That's my memory of those times, too. But the band as a whole, especially in the United States, usually always scored.

Well, a lot of them did, like the staff at Creem (remember the "blanded-out blonde musher" comment?).

Many of them were sort of neutral: they just thought she was overrated & minimally necessary to an album or a Mac concert -- like Steve Pond & David Gans. But others thought she was pretty cool -- like Dennis Hunt (who called her Bella Donna Beverly Hills show the best pop-rock show in L.A. that year), Robert Hilburn, Steve Morse & Ken Tucker.

I'm not a fan of this Gypsy musically (I actually don't like Gyspy live period), but you can tell she's very, very emotional during this performance - like, bordering on falling apart.

It is good. I'm going to go through my boots and see if I have this one.
