Fleetwood Mac’s first live album captured the legendary band’s most iconic line-up onstage at the height of their record-breaking success.
Released in December, 1980, the LP was recorded mostly during the world tour for ‘Tusk’ delivered a double-album’s worth of performances including Dreams, Go Your Own Way, Rhiannon and Don’t Stop.
Now, the collection is set for a re-release, with a new 3CD and 2LP collection that features a remastered version of the original release – both 180-gram vinyl and CD – plus more than an hour of unreleased live music, recorded between 1977 and 1982.
The set also includes a bonus 7-inch single, featuring previously unreleased demos for Fireflies and One More Night.
‘Fleetwood Mac Live: Super Deluxe Edition’ is presented in a 12 x 12 rigid slipcase and comes with a booklet filled with rare photos, a full itinerary for the Tusk Tour, plus a history of the live album by writer David Wild.
“Then and now, Fleetwood Mac ‘Live’ artfully marks a fascinating time period for a group that, in one form or another, has been on the global stage for more than half a century…” he writes.
“It’s a wildly entertaining rock ’n’ roll circus in full swing under a big tent of the band’s own creation as they leave audiences dazzled in locales from Paris, France, to Passaic, New Jersey.”
The album will be available from Rhino on April 9 and is available to pre-order now. An unreleased live performance of The Chain, recorded in Cleveland in 1980, is available to stream now.
