This was the first time I’ve heard Hold Me from 1982, and it was really well done! I thought it would a messy song to perform live, but they were pretty tight. I’m looking forward to listening to the other CD today. |

Many of us (including me) much prefer this raw, unpolished, and arena rock sound. Your description of Second Hand News makes me want to hear the song and probably like it more with what you call it "Loud and a rock song" That sounds so good to me.

My box set arrives today and I can’t wait to play it all. These box sets are the best treasures for a fan since the 70’s. It’s worth every penny IMO. These live tracks showcase Fleetwood Mac in their prime.

I was a big fan of Live when it came out in 1980 and had high expectations for it, along the lines of the Eagles live but unfortunately I think Tusk's initial cold reaction dampened enthusiasm and sales. The only quip I had was the version of Don't Stop, like why not an actual concert? As for the new set, so much to like. I love Stevie's growl on Angel and Sisters of the Moon, she had perfected it during the Tusk tour. I could listen to her sing like that for days. Sisters of the Moon is awesome and I really love the Cecelia lyrics at the end, her voice is among the best live voice I've ever heard from her. A big surprise is What Makes You Think You're the One- translates amazing to the stage- so surprised it never made single status and Lindsey's shining moment on this reissue. The keyboard driven Think About Me is also a great listen, to this day I'm shocked this song was not a monster hit, it's truly outstanding and as good or better than You Make Loving Fun. Brown Eyes and Hold Me showcase just how much Christine's voice was improving live, not that she was ever bad, but it was so much stronger. I'm going to enjoy this reissue for years to come, reminds me of why I was such a committed fan for so long and great memories from my teen years. Love it.

I really love the new stuff!! Especially the start of the bonus album. It does feel like a nice show if you close your eyes and forget about which versions you know, etc.
Second Hand News A (Wow what an energy charge!) The Chain A- (Cleveland sounds like Los Angeles!) Think About Me A (This is fantastic! Great "performance") What Makes You Think You’re The One A (Cleanest version I've heard) Gold Dust Woman A- (Wonderful arrangement, embarrassed to say, I didn't catch the lyric mishap) Brown Eyes A (This is so good. Very clean and wonderful) The Green Manalishi A (Great energy) Angel B (I've heard better versions, something off about this one) Hold Me B+ (Still not as good as her solo tour) {Should have been on the HBO special} Tusk A- (Don't care for this live, but it's the best I've heard to date. The accordion is great in this, along with the extension of the song) You Make Loving Fun B (Ho hum, Not their best. The Tusk Live Deluxe is better by far. ) Sisters Of The Moon B- (Very vanilla version, vocals eeek) Songbird B- (This is the Songbird they choose? Again, the Tusk Wembley version is so much better. ) Blue Letter B+ (I really adore the HBO version) Fireflies – B- (Ok, what's different?)

I love that it's tagged "Long Version" but it's actually quite a bit shorter than the original

Mine is due to be delivered tomorrow. I thought a reissue of a live album was pretty strange, but I sprang for the Rhino release with all the goodies. I too love that raw sound. You didn't know what you might hear. Today, every concert is pretty much the same.

I love the added stuff, it really fills in some obvious gaps in the original Live album. It's not all perfect, but it's a perfect time capsule of Fleetwood Mac in their 1977-82 prime. Some of my favorites...
Second Hand News - I love this as an opener, it's rocking, quick, and full of energy. To my ears, an improvement over using Say You Love Me. The Chain - The '82 Chain disguising itself as an '80. It is pretty much note for note (99%) as the version from the next night. I thought they nailed it on this tour. The version on the Tusk Deluxe is pretty amazing as well, until I heard that, the Mirage Tour Video was always my favorite version. This one is great. Christine's organ, all of their vocals, Lindsey's guitar...spot on! Gold Dust Woman - I love this version, the intro really sets the mood. I'll still say she really got this one right on The Dance, but I think this is a great addition. Brown Eyes - love, love, love this. Why they played it again in 1987-88 but never since is beyond me. Hold Me - This was the one I waited for. A cleaned up non bootleg version of Hold Me. Count me in as someone who loves the 'yeahhhhs' they did in 1982. This really sounds good! There isn't really a bad song added, some of them are just same old things I've heard before so nothing overly interesting. |

As for the haters, if you don't want to buy it then don't. There are digital files for $18 if $100 is too much, but to come on here and try to spoil other people enjoyment over your own hateful rederick makes you out to be nothing more than another internet troll.

Dramatic much? $100 IS TOO MUCH. If you don't want to hear other people's opinions, perhaps you shouldn't come to community forums! Btw, have I mentioned that $100 IS TOO MUCH?

The only thing I was completely wowed by was the live version of Brown Eyes, which is fantastic.
