Fleetwood Mac - September 1,1980 - Los Angeles, CA - Hollywood Bowl torrent

Tusk will always be my favorite tour and album. The way that they extended songs and improv and just jam the guitar licks, bass lines, and vocals is truly amazing. Stevie, while not at the top of her game vocally, never sang a song the same way twice, so it was like hearing it for the first time again every night. Makes me wish Lindsey would start improving the So Afraid solo again. He's been playing that same solo almost 20 years now.

It's exhausting.

Excellent analysis. I agree with you that I'm So Afraid on the Tusk tour is the best ever. That live album version is on fire.....literally. My CD player would smoke when that song was played.
Your point about Stevie was on point. Before klonopin she really always spontaneous but in the 80s it was because of drugs. During Tusk, her spontaneous singing was natural and organic.

The "Dreams" where she sings out of tune and the wrong lyrics are some of my fav. (On that tour)
