Thanks for posting. This saves me from ever trying to find my VHS copy. I had forgotten about the photo shoot on top of the mountain with the piano. How cool. That was shot in Switzerland? Today a photo like that would be photoshopped. This was the real deal red scarf and all.

I think... Maybe SteveMac, Homer, or David can back me up. That was shot in England (the album cover). My mind can't reach back and remember.

Thank you so much for posting this!! I watched it every time MTV played it. My parents had to pull me away.

The shot was taken in Switzerland, if I recall.

This was great to re-watch. Billy the mailroom guy was cute

Thanks, Doug! Magnifico!

You don’t still have the Visitor movie, do you? It was all before Peter Gabriel sang with Youssou N’Dour and Papa Wemba. Who knew Mick Fleetwood would be a pathbreaker for world music and rock? (Well, I forgot about “Biko,” released in 1980.)

Awesome. Thank you.
Todd Sharp should have got the Fleetwood Mac gig in '87. He'd have been so much of a better fit.

I have always said the same thing after watching Todd live. He was asked this very question on a meet and greet segment. He said, NO, he was never asked. But he teased that he would have wanted it so bad.
I get the Billy addition since he played with Mick and Chris but Todd was an intense friend of Chris and she only agreed to do a solo record if he would be part of it. I always wondered if someone thought Billy was not good enough and they also needed a studio lead guitarist. Rick is really good but Todd no doubt had an inside track like Billy. Always wanted to know the truth on that. Gosh, he would have added so much energy to the band.

He liked to sweat, solo, jam, and find a groove. perfect for MacVie and company.
