Sound quality variable, live versions not up to snuff... () Review written by Jon the Moonspinner from redlands, ca, February 17th, 2010 Released on the heels of the killer "Tusk" tour which took them around the globe, Fleetwood Mac had every right to be exhausted. Still, they surprise us with a handful of very good new tracks ("The Farmer's Daughter", especially, and "Fireflies") and some fun oldies (the Buckingham-Nicks dust-kicker "Don't Let Me Down Again"). "Never Going Back Again", recorded at the Tucson, AZ show I attended in August 1980, is a personal favorite, but too many songs here are not recorded in a proper setting. Why, for instance, was "Dreams" recorded at a sound check when something much more intimate (like "Sara") should have been given this privilege? "Not That Funny" went too long in concert and, inexplicably, is reproduced here in all its lumbering non-glory. Buckingham tried turning several of the Mac events into showcases for his guitar wizardry. I don't know why the others didn't restrain him. A frizzy-haired Nicks and both McVies are charming, Fleetwood pumps heavily on his drum kit like a man of desperation, but Buckingham is too overbearing here. BEST: Monday Morning, Oh Well, Over & Over, Never Going back Again, Fireflies, Don't let me Down Again, One More Night, The Farmer's Daughter. |

Not bad... () Review written by Brad, February 17th, 2005 Though I very much prefer "The Dance", this is still a very good live album. A lot of songs on this album are greatly improved from their studio counterparts (i.e. "Over and Over" and "Over My Head"). "Fireflies" and "One More Night" are great additions to the usual favorites like "Don't Stop" and "Go Your Own Way". Best tracks: "Rhiannon", "Oh Well", "Don't Let Me Down Again" and "One More Night". |
A good live alternative to 'The Dance' () Review written by Anonymous, August 20th, 2004 The 1980 Live album is a world away from the highly-polished affair that was 1997's 'The Dance'. Listening to this, one really gets the sense that this was Fleetwood Mac's 'Rumours' incarnation at its decadent, creative, frustrated best. The track listing is not quite as mainstream as the casual fan might like, and fans of Lindsey Buckingham's songs will be pleased by the fact that they dominate the enitre piece. Buckingham shows himself to be the strongest of guitarists, performing his own works with gusto, and even managing a masterful version of Peter Green's 'Oh Well'. Stevie Nicks, for her part, performs well on most tracks, though occasionally disappointing fans of her vocal prowess on some -- though 'Rhiannon' makes up for that. Christine McVie sings very lively versions of 'Over My Head' and 'Say You Love Me', though she is not as well served as the other two singers here. The 'new' tracks on the album are good, with Brian Wilson's 'The Farmer's Daughter' standing out amongst them. All in all, this eclectic CD is worth the time of devoted fans, but may not quite strike the same chord with those whose familiarity with all things 'Fleetwood Mac' is less strong. |
