The Midnight Special was a music variety show that ran throughout most of the 1970s, they had some of the greatest music acts of the day on every week. Definitely worth a deep dive into the archives of the show.
I agree and I’ll throw in the Beat Club from German TV, which some amazing performances up on UA-cam
When he mentions them not showing the other members of the band much..this was a show aimed at college aged boomers...they were showing the "Pretty Face" on camera...
Midnight Special, bring me back😭😭😭♥️ 🎶🎶. Stevie, Fleetwood, saw them several times. We never sat down, all of us up, dancing, singing our hearts out.
She wrote the song. And the camera is on her for a reason. She is telling the story. Theres also nothing today that matches the genius skills and talents of that decade or others before it.
She has to be the greatest woman to front a rock band ever. This is her and the band at the peak of their powers. Epic.
Well, I think a case can be made for Ann Wilson.
The only one that comes close is Ann Wilson of Heart. Its a toss up between them for me. Both unbelievable.
R.i.p. Christine McVie, She had the voice of an angel. You are missed, but your music lives on.
lindsey buckingham guitarist who is very underrated
That's what you call putting everything into a song, Stevie at her best.
Stevie is one of the greats. Fleetwood Mac has a LONG and varied history....DEEP rabbit hole. The story of the band internally is as interesting as the story of their music. One of the dominant groups of the 1970's.
This performance is one of the most pure magic moments in music. It's like she's conjuring something. And Lindsay is one of the most underrated guitarists of all time.
Every guy I knew back then had a major crush on Stevie Nicks. Aside from that Fleetwood Mac was also just mesmerizing, mainly because of her
Finally, someone reacts to this irreproachable performance.
Stevie is a witchy woman in a trance!! Love her💖
Christine McVie is the "other" woman who was playing keyboards. It took every member of that group to create their perfect music.
Fleetwood Mac had 3 lead singers in the band at this time. Stevie who sung here, Lyndsay the lead guitarist, and the keyboardist Christine. They all sung hit songs.
She's the second best lady singer in the band. RIP Songbird
The best of times 70’s and 80’s…..they rocked.
“Just the, well IS the person on the keyboard..” that’s Christine McVie bro!
This is one of my favorite live performances ever. So good.
I was twenty three years old in 1976, and I don't recall anyone using the term "groovy" for this performance. What I mostly heard was the term "fan-fuckin-tastic". And their music just kept getting better.
I was twenty four years old when this aired and I watched it live (on tv). They performed two songs on the show that night. I bought their album the next day at the campus record store.
@@robhoskins8871 Welcome aboard ole timer. Glad you're still around. I still love that lady.
Goosebumps
Her voice is unnique
“Rhiannon” is my favourite FM song and one of my top 10 songs of all time but I had never seen/heard this! This is almost a completely new song. Take a listen to the studio version, it’ll put the craziness of this version in perspective. Thank you for introducing me to this performance!
Age. Of. Seventeen.
Stevie's voice is unmistakable.
Edge of Seventeen
@@PassionGrows lolol thank you, I stand corrected
On organ and back up vocal is Chris Mc Vie who sometimes does lead vocals as well
I love watching reactions to this because I know what's coming... Stevie's going to blow your f'n head off.
You might want to do the Rumours album track by track. All of the songs go together thematically. Stevie and Lindsey (guitar/vocals) had broken up. Christine (keyboard/vocals) had just divorced John (bass). Songs are about love lost, pain, and some optimism looking forward. But when you listen to each one knowing what these people singing and performing had gone through with each other, it really does amplify the songs.
People used to say Taylor Swift would go out with someone so she could write an album about them. Stevie made Lindsay perform her songs about him on stage for 40 years (and vice versa).
This group was awesome when they came out in the late 70's. I have all of their vinyl record albums in my collection. I still play their CD'S in my car. I'm 74 yrs and never get tired of listening to their music. Love them and Stevie Nicks albums when she went solo. ❤️❤️❤️
This band is timeless
@@SalvoGyes, they are!
buckingham/nicks joined the old fleetwood mack in 1975. rhiannon was the first hit of the new fleetwood mac.
The single greatest live performance ive ever seen.
Cool Reaction. Fleetwood Mac's 3 lead vocalists are each so unique and good. Stevie has a really good stage presence. According to their 2014 autobiography... Mick, John and Christine auditioned guitarist Lindsay Buckingham and immediately loved his Blue Grass style. They had no interest in Stevie Nicks. Lindsay & Stevie were a couple, at the time, and Lindsay said he and Stevie were a package deal. They were both hired and a few months later, Lindsay broke up with Stevie, and they both remained in the band.
Great live performance! She goes crazy. Her duet with Tom Petty is one of my favs!
Midnight Special was on Fridays at Midnight. Hosted by the king of the DJs, Wolfman Jack! Bands came on to promote their new albums. The cool thing about it was it was all live, you got between 4-5 minutes and no lip synching. Had all the best bands on - you could probably go down a bit of a rabbit hole, just watching some old episodes.
Perhaps I could suggest watching the episode with Hocus Pocus, by Focus?
I have to second that suggestion to watch the episode with Focus.
Which explains why the tempo was so quick in this version. Wow.
Thanks for this great reaction to this song! I love this song and it is my fav song Stevie sings. I grew up with their music and this song is so special to me. It was so special in fact that I named my little girl Rhiannon Dee after the legend of the witch on the river Dee in Wales near where my husband lived and worked for some time. Sadly I lost my baby girl to miscarriage and never had any children. This song is so absolutely amazing.
Thank you for saying those things, and appreciating the music from our youth.
Powerful performance ❤
mid to late 60s thru 70s = TALENT
Stevie Nicks, lead singer, songwriter/Christine McVie, #2 singer, piano, songwriter (R.I.P recently passed) and Stevie's BFF) wrote several of their hits/ Lindsey Buckingham lead guitarist, singer, songwriter...considered one of the best/John McVie #2 guitarist and Mick Fleetwood , drummer. This performance made Stevie a star overnight! Fleetwood Mac inducted into Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Stevie later on also inducted for her prolific songwriting! She went onto have an amazingly successful solo career and is considered a Rock Goddess by many and continues to play with Fleetwood Mac, as well!
Dang this 1 just popped up. I bet u freaked on Stevie. Performance wise. She kicks ass on this early Performance together.
I grew up watching The Midnight Special. I remember watching Fleetwood Mac perform this song on the show in 1976. I was 15 at the time this aired.
Rhiannon is the Welsh horse Goddess. I'm a Pagan and She is my main Goddess
This performance is one of my favorite live ones of all time - Stevie's voice is iconic. The keyboard, vocalist is Christie McVie who has her own songs. I think her most famous ones are "You Make Loving Fun" and "Don't Stop". As others have said, you should check out the whole Rumours album - it's one of the top hit albums of all time.
Such a hypnotic tune
The person on the keyboard is Christine McVie who is no longer with us sadly. She was a genius song writer, musician and singer too. So glad you enjoyed this. I was lucky enough to be in my teens when music like this was coming out.
Great performance. I was 12 when this aired and it blew our minds. All three lead singers had big songs charting from this album starting in 1975. Then the year after this single came out Rumours hit when I was in junior high school and Fleetwood Mac was cemented as one of the biggest rock bands of the day. Great band. I loved them. Mirage came out my senior year just after Lindsay and Stevies solo albums. And I loved that album. Super talented people who play great together.
Stevie Nicks more or less created the Gothic look
Just search "Midnight Special" here on UA-cam.....it was a Saturday Latenight concert series for years during the 70's. Almost anybody who was anybody were on there.
I love this version, now you can see why Mick said it's like Stevie having an exorcism.
You have such INCREDIBLE music ahead of you....we have already experienced it!!! Hahahahaha
Back in the day we didn't have all the outlets for new/instant music. We had American Bandstand, which the artists had to lip sync (there's a hysterical video of John Cougar's performance on AB), Soul Train, and the Midnight Special!
Ah! Stevie Nicks has been my girl crush for about 40 years now and there's a long line of dudes who have been crushing on her for almost 50 years!
Stevie Nicks wore REALLY flowy dresses in their concerts and it especially worked during this song.
The Rolling StoneS is a legendary rock and roll group. The Rolling Stone(no plural) is a magazine that published popularity lists that once meant something. Its relevance passed it up years ago!
Saw them in concert (along with Eagles and Box Scaggs!) - what an incredible concert that was! This song was utterly mesmerizing.
Love how Fleetwood Mac seem to follow your direction!
FYI: The Rolling Stones and Rolling Stone Magazine are two completely different entities and not related to each other aside from sharing the same name minus "The" and "Stones" vs. "Stone" in the names.
One is an iconic godfather of modern rock and roll blues based band from England (1962 - present) and the other is a music industry publication from San Francisco launched in 1967.
Love Fleetwood Mac!
Loved Midnight Special, so glad to relive the clips here on You Tube. Mick Fleetwood described Stevie's live performance of this song as 'an exorcism set to music'
6:43 The woman to the left of the "little side-by side comparison" is Christine McVie, who plays the keys and has contributed a number of songs to the body of Fleetwood Mac. Christine has her own, cozy, unique singing and playing style that's worth listening to, for example, "Over My Head", "Think About Me", "Don't Stop", "Brown Eyes", "Oh Daddy" , etc. Hope you have a chance to to check Christine McVie's songs out. (She's also done a couple of solo albums and also a duet album - Christine McVie & Lindsey Buckingham) in 2017.
I want to be with you everywhere is my favorite mcvie song I think… so good
@@davidlounsberry4127 Yeah I love that song too. It sticks to your “inner jukebox”.
The original recording had all the magic. There's a documentary on UA-cam about the band that is fascinating and describes the trials and tribulations they went thru and survived to make some of the greatest music ever.
I have to agree. Live performances can certainly exceed originals recordings in ways... But this song IS the original recording--it can never be touched :-) It's perfection.
Stevie Nicks can SANG!!!!!!! Enjoy this journey.....not another one like it!!!!🎶🎼🎵🎤🎸🎙🥁🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘
Actually this is better than the studio version, Stevie doesn't do her great thing expressing herself. Lindsey Buckingham is the great guitar player also has a great voice. Stevie was inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame twice once by herself and with Fl. Mac, truly a great singer. Dreams in 77 is another one to check out. She's still performing in 2022 and sounds great.Best of success on yr channel
Stevie Nicks had a very good solo act and released quit a few big hits on her own. Had a big hit with Tom Petty called Stop Draggin my Heart Around
Stevie has such a unique voice that is instantly recognizable. She doesn’t have the power of an Ann Wilson (Heart) or Joan Jet, Pat Benatar...but her uniqueness puts her up there with the best. Christine McVie also has a good voice & she & Stevie harmonize well together. They have a large worm hole for you to fall down. Their Rumors album is great as a complete album listen. It’s ranked as one of the top albums of the era. It was made as Christine & John McVie (bassist) were divorcing & Stevie & Lindsay Buckingham (guitarist, vocalist, songwriter) were breaking up & Stevie had an affair with drummer Mick Fleetwood.....they had a lot of emotions to put into song & Rumors was the result 🤯🤯
I’ve heard Pat Benetar and Ann Wilson live in small venues in the last 6-7 years. Saw Pat twice and it was great both times. Her husband Neil is a criminally underrated guitarist. As great as she was she couldn’t touch Ann as far as power. Ann’s voice just fills up a room so so much. Saw Fleetwood Mac with Christine at a large arena and they sounded great as well. Only problem was I was so far away the big video screens looked this phone I’m on now lol.
@@inspectorvol951 I agree with you on Ann. But since I’m a Seattle area girl I have a natural bias to Ann so I try to even that out by adding in the “also rans” 😉😁. Lucky you (!) to hear them both in concert!! I’ve caught Heart but not Benatar.
@@donnaj9769 My wife and I were literally 8-10 ft from Pat at one show. We were 30-35 ft from Heart. From the jump Ann blew us away! I first saw Heart on TV doing Cal Jam 2 back in the 70’s. Fell in love as a teenage boy and then did all over again watching them live lol. Glad my wife didn’t get mad as I was completely star struck lol.
My wife and I saw Pat in concert and was the worst concert we attended. Pat’s voice was awesome but her husband couldn’t stop talking politics. We didn’t go for a lecture… we went for music. He ruined it for us.
Love, love, love this video. Powerful, beautiful energy.
Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert
The Midnight Special
American Band Stand
Soul Train
Solid Gold
We had it like that!
Nice Reaction
This is my fave version of this song. 😊
As well as being gorgeous Stevie really can sing. The first ever woman to be inducted into the RocknRoll Hall of Fame twice. I've seen this video a hundred times and still can't get past her close-up smile about a minute into the song.
Rhiannon was the Celtic goddess of love and beauty. She represented by a bird. Stevie didn’t know this at the time of writing.
I think attention of Stevie had to do with her rarity as a sexy female lead in rock. She had a heavy lift in those days, carrying the weight of Janis and Grace.
This whole performance on Midnight Special consisted of : Over my head World Turning and Rhiannon.Worth checking it out... 👍👍👍
Little lies , big love both versions of big love just listen to every single release from them and all their solo projects and duets …. Tom petty and Stevie -I will run to you and stop draggin my heart around ….. so so many u will absolutely adore …. Hold me and love in store and that’s alright … Sooo sooo fantastic
Me and my friends use to ride around all the time listening to this group, the creativity of these groups was because it was new they where at the beginning of rock it went down hill when corporations started directing music, then auto tune and other things came along to fake music and talent especially here in the USA also drugs destroyed much talent you have to look outside USA for real music anymore and that is sad 😔 I miss those days so when you say you want to hear the recording instead of live are you getting the real stuff or auto tune God bless
Cool
My favorite! Love this one! The Midnight Special came on every Friday night at midnight! Loved watching it! I have it on dvd! You should at least for yourself listen to the studio version! Also it would be great if you react to her and Tom Petty's duo. STOP DRAGGING MY HEART AROUND!
One of my fav bands in the day.. obsessed over the Bare Trees album -pre Stevie & Lindsey.. and then there was the Rumours album and nearly wore the poor vinyl out. Btw, I haven’t heard that many ‘groovies’ in a minute😉 love that you’re digging it. Yes, Midnight Special was a not to be missed appointment!
The keyboardist Christine McVie has amazing vocals as well smooth as honey gotta do some of her songs
Great song by a great group !!
Hey Salvo, in a nutshell it's real music played by real musicians with heart and soul. It's cool that you understand it and appreciate it! Fleetwood Mac is so good and Stevie can deliver a song like no one else and that means no one else :-) Like your appreciation for Zep too. I'm 65 and Zep and and Mac are my two favorite bands ever!!!
Oh wow, I could barely stay awake until midnight to watch this show, basically a concert with different acts. 👍🏽
Seen her do this twice and saw her solo while still a part of FM on her Bella Donna tour!! 😜
Check out "Edge of Seventeen" or "Stand Back," adore her duet with Tom Petty "Stop Draggin My Heart Around" for some opts.
Dive deeply into FM. One special or unique quality is diversity, while Stevie may lead a majority, don't discount Lindsey or Christine-in the side by side on keyboards. She's 2 beautiful songs showcasing her vocals, "Songbird" and "Oh Daddy" and Lindsey is all over on popular ones too, "Go Your Own Way," "Second Hand News" and seriously underrated guitarist, he can pick like no other!! SEEN IT!! 😁
I really believe Rumours is worthy of a listen from beginning to end, stellar album. ❤👍🏽
P.S. There is another vid on YT of an even crazier Stevie ending you can check out on your own. 👍🏽
It's so sad watching this now that Christine McVie has just recently passed. The day that Stevie dies I will be crying for days. She has been my idol since I was 13. That is 40 years of loving this woman and her music. Her music has gotten me through a lot of hard times. Nice reaction!
I've been to quite a few concerts, few compared to seeing these guys. Three lead singers that switch off, any of the 3 good enough to front a band full time. Stevie Nicks, though, Stevie's vocals might just be the most...haunting...vocals I've ever heard. Stevie is pure magic.
Great reaction.... thanks for speaking to creativity.... isn't every era a Renaissance of one sort or another?
Pure passion in this performance and I always liked stevie's whimsical dancing
MIDNIGHT SPECIAL CAME ON SAT NIGHT IN THE SEVENTIES GREAT LIVE PERFORMANCES SADLY THOSE DAYS ARE GONE EXCEPT ON U TUBE
The lead vocalist wrote it... and this performance saved the band so search the other members and find out for yourself about contributing to a band
Definitely check out the studio version from the self titled 1975 album. It’s so different from this and just as good too.
Studio version is much better. So much more feeling and emotion. This live version is just rushed and the lyrics garbled.
awsome post / thanks ...... 🕶
The Midnight Special was just about one the only show that would feature live performances of major bands of the time, so it was a big deal when it was on.
"The Seventies" was an evolution, in music. For the most part, No Grunge, No Glam Metal, No Speed Metal, No Rap and NO AUTOTUNE. Thes bands worked HARD to produce music. This was just "Classic Rock". After Beatles/Jimi Hendrix era Led Zeppelin, The Who and The Rolling Stones moved us into the 70's. Fleetwood Mac, Rush, Van Halen and MANY more thrived in the later 70's and passed on the evolution to the 80's. Rock On! Great Work Salvo!
Disneyland had a day event, discount for any all girls named Rihanna...thousands of thousands baby girls were named from that song, showed up!! Her and Christi McVie fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥.
Not Greek from a Welsh (British Isles) Midnight Special was a Weekly network music show Saturday’s at midnight ok 12:01 am Sunday.
I was in my mid 20s during this era. The ending solo is just spectacular ! Epic, I can’t find the accurate term
This is one the best live performances EVER!! I saw this live in ‘77 Rumors tour, in THEIR PRIME!! Long version..❤️🔥🎶🎶🎶🎶🎤
Cant wait for more Morissette reactions!!
Monday morning plays a riff while Mic Fleetwood plays drum 1977
Rocks Queen Stevie Nicks
If you want a song with a story, then head to the pre pop Fleetwood Mac, with Peter Green (rip) there’s quite a few, try Green Manalishi!!!!! Some story.
You will love Alanis Morissette"You oughtta know" live David Letterman 1990s
❤❤
You should react to 25 or 6 to 4 by Chicago live 1973 Tanglewood they'll blow you away
Lindsey Buckingham is one of the best and most underrated guitarists.
Everyone loves Stevie Nicks, and not just her singing. She has a quality.
Edge of Seventeen is a must hear of hers (as is Gypsy). Songbird is the one to hear from Christine.
Stevie got into some kind of way when she sang this live as you saw lol!
Rhiannon is Welsh Gaelic and means = ''Great Queen;'' ''Goddess''.. In Welsh mythology, Rhiannon was the goddess of fertility and the moon..
The introduction of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks into Fleetwood Mac sent that band into the stratosphere. I'm still more of a fan of the studio albums Then there live performances. Not to
Say that there are amazing live performances of so many of their songs. Landslide comes to mind. That is one of the most beautiful songs Stevie has ever put out.
Did you know that Stevie Nicks is the only Double female Rock and Roll Hall of Famer? Solo and Fleetwoid Mac?
There *is* a lot of incredible music to discover from them...but no one ever hears it on YT because they only hit the Spotify Top 5. Why not dig a little deeper?
