Fleetwood Mac - The Chain - Cover
Here we are covering one of the greatest songs of all time.
The Chain" is a song by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released on their 1977 album Rumours. It is the only song from the album with writing credits for all five members (Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham, Christine McVie, John McVie, and Mick Fleetwood).
"The Chain" was created from combinations of several previously rejected materials, including solo work by Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, and Christine McVie. The song was assembled, often manually by splicing tapes with a razor blade, at the Record Plant in Sausalito, California, with engineers Ken Caillat and Richard Dashut.
Following the critical and commercial success of Rumours, "The Chain" has become a staple of the band's live shows, typically the opening song. It was featured as the opening track on The Dance, a 1997 live concert CD/DVD release, as well as several of the band's greatest hits compilations. The song has attained particular fame in the United Kingdom, where the instrumental section has been used as the theme tune for the BBC and Channel 4's television coverage of Formula One.

Fleetwood Mac - I'm So Afraid - Live Cover from Bingley Rocks

A lesser known Fleetwood Mac song from the first album to have the classic line up of Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham, Christine McVie, John McVie and Mick Fleetwood aptly named, Fleetwood Mac. We got asked to play the Bingley Rocks tribute band weekend. What an event it was. So many great bands played. Especially New 2, a U2 tribute band. Just wow. This was filmed from the audience so forgive...

Our second video for our tribute band is this incredible song written by Stevie Nicks. Originally meant for the Rumours album but was left off much to Stevie's annoyance. It has become a huge fan favourite and developed a new life for itself on TikTok. We love performing this song!! Rolling Stone observed, "Nicks' tender yet vengeful post-mortem on her breakup with Buckingham [became] an emotio...

So, we went watching 10cc a few weeks ago and we were absolutely blown away. The best description we could come up with was 10cc is what would happen if The Beach Boys and Frank Zappa had a kid.

We have tried to do our own thing with it while trying to stay r...

Another live performance you lucky dogs. We love Maiden at Castle Strange and this is always an amazing song to play live. This song is inspired by the 1910 classic novel of the same name by French author Gaston Leroux (18681927), on which the famous broadway show by Andrew Lloyd Webber is also based (go see it, it is really great). The story is basically one of love, fame and jealousy, with a ...

    This is one of my all time favorite songs. And you two did not mess it up. In fact, you did one of the best covers ever. I’m completely blown away that you were able to make this happen so effectively. The vocals are amazing and enticing. And your guitar, guitar, guitar playing was beyond brilliant, so amazingly talented. And blending it all together for a perfect and delightful performance was a technical feat. Thanks so much for your effort. This posting is now on my frequent revisit list. Love you two.
