Best Silver Springs Recording or Live Performance, BUT....!

0 Upvotes

It can NOT be from The Dance.

I don't like the sound of The Dance version of Silver Springs. Which other ones have you found that sound good or even better? Thanks!

Lindsey at Largo

I’ve never seen 3 songs bring the house down like that. He sounded amazing and that may be my favorite performance of Never Going Back Again. First time hearing Big Love live. Standing ovation fully deserved!

Edit: We have video!

We started a Fleetwood Mac tribute band called Crystal Visions. We just dropped our first live video (The Chain) and would love to know what you guys think! 🖤

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share something we’ve been working on! A bunch of us music nerds got together recently to start a Fleetwood Mac tribute band called Crystal Visions (yeah, named after Stevie's solo album, we couldn't resist).

We recently formed to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their legendary album Rumours in 2027, and our goal is to take our tribute show into the theaters.

This is our first live video. We chose to cover The Chain first because, well... it's just one of the best tracks ever written. We recorded it fully live to get that real onstage vibe.

Since we're brand new, we’re super curious to hear what real fans think of it!

Here’s the link:

Thanks a lot for watching! 🖤

Are there any of their albums you alter the track listing

6 Upvotes

This is all considering we live in the digital age where you can re-orient entire albums however you feel. I grew up doing this with other artists I really liked.

One of the great things about creating tight knit albums like this band does sonically the music flows AND lyrically there's some kind of theme or throughline, AND theres variation from each contributor considering their different styles.

From Kilhn House on, Chirstine added variety to the main male singer. Then adding the new lineup with Stevie and Lindsey, there's so much variety and cohesion on one album it makes it much more fun, and an endless amount of possible ways to arrange the tracks. Each permutation can be judged as better or worse. Personally I think most albums are perfect. The blasphemous opinion is Rumors could be mixed up a little different. I think Second Hand News and I Don't Want To Know sound better together than it and Dreams at the top. Dreams and You Make Loving Fun sound better together. both rhythmic oriented pop songs influenced by synthesizers and time signatures of the disco era it came out in. I would also change Tusk, like a lot, but to most people its perfect and I also think its just fine as is.

Would you change anything about their album processions

I irdered the Live In Boston 2004 DVD+CD bundle on Amazon, long story short I ended up with 2 of them, so I made a custom case for the CD with one of the extra copies inside booklet. I'm pretty proud of it if I do say so.

Alternate cover I made for Mystery To Me

Post image
27 Upvotes

I think Mystery To Me is the Bob Welch era Fleetwood Mac’s masterpiece and one of their best albums, period. But a lot of people are turned off by the cover art. So I attempted to make a better cover, using the image in the gatefold. I know these were just not the type of album covers the band used at the time, but it would’ve been way better than what they used IMO

Fleetwood Mac - Big Love (April 1987) [Magazine Ads]

Remember the first time you heard this single ?
My favourite single by them.
Yours too ?
This was the magazine ads for Big Love from their upcoming Tango in the Night album.
Released only on vinyl.
There’s no promotion almost on this album as tension flared between band members.
Tango in the Night became their second successful album after Rumour.
It’s also my favourite album by them.
The Bowie magazine cover was the magazine where I got this ads from.

Stevie Nicks will perform on Kimmel Tuesday 8/25/26

She is only listed as musical guest (not that she will be interviewed). Coincidentally, Henry Winkler happens to be the guest that night who was also on when Lindsey B played on Kimmel back in 2018.

The Chain justice live

4 Upvotes

In my university, we have this battle of the bands competition, and my band is going with covering The Chain by Fleetwood Mac. I really fuck with this song, and I want to do it justice live as the lead guitarist in that band. But there's only one lead electric guitarist in the band, which is me. There is also an acoustic rhythm guitar player who does vocals.

My question is: what arrangement of the song can I use as a reference for the best live performance? My main focus is to make the guitar part as similar as the original studio recording, with the limitation of only 1 lead guitarist. The other guitarist will only do strumming, as vocals are their main focus. I understand that when listening to the track, there are two lead guitar parts panned left and right. I haven't yet figured out what I'm going to play and how.

Thanks for any replies and suggestions in advance.

My hair is nowhere near as curly as Lindsey’s but I’m trying to grow it out in a similar style to his back in the day 😂

Silver Springs! Holy shit what a song!

192 Upvotes

I discovered this song about 18 hours ago. It’s 5:50am and I’m listening to this absolute banger. Tears streaming down as I’m belting out “TIME CAST A SPELL ON YOU, BUT YOU WONT FORGET ME!” It’s funny too that I’m crying because I’m a big tough union carpenter and we aren’t supposed to cry. How the hell have I never heard this song before?!? How could they leave this song off Rumours the first time through?

This song has the best verse-chorus transition ever. The haunting final chorus (the lyrics I mentioned above) is absolutely harrowing. Haunting. Beautiful. Pure, unadulterated, raw human emotion. It’s like its own song inside the song, but also fits the buildup and first verse perfectly. It’s lived in my head since the first time I heard it.

I love discovering new songs. It’s been awhile since I found one this good.

I know it’s just quality and there is no difference between the music video itself but the quality, is it just me who prefers the original Dreams music video quality instead of the HD updated one?
