- This is an AWESOME live 1979 era performance of the classic song ~ The Chain (one of my faves)!! This is from Fleetwood Mac's GREAT Tusk Documentary. I (fondly) remember first watching this (and the rest of this doc.) when I was 12 years old (back in early 1981) with my mother.

Now, there was a witch, a warlock, a wizard, a sorcerer and a pound of uncut cocaine in a mystical gold snuff box..... Then the music began...and it sounded like this....
Nailed it, brother!
fuck off
Staaaahhhpppp
BIG AL ONE oh fucc lmao 😂
So true
I was there, 5th row. Never forget that show.
Tell us more! Was it magic?
@@anthia1156 Thansks for asking. One of the most memorable moments I had that month. Take me back 😭👌
Your one of the luckiest people of this era
@@mr.authentic2505 Thank you so much. One of my best highlights of that week
@@patstaysuckafreeboss8006 That week huh? Why did you switch accounts?
One of the greatest bands in history.
How they can play like this coked to the gills and still sound like the best band there ever was absolutely amazes me. The electricity coming from the crowd can even be felt through a crappy 40-odd year old video recording. Awesome!
Must of been top notch stuff and not the bashed up crap me and friends sniffed when we was younger
So did waylon jennings. It was just that Era. God Don't make em like that anymore bc we couldn't handle it
Cocaine is a hell of a drug💪
@@hunterkembel5012tbf they don't make coke like that anymore either.
The coke just influenced the fire of the performance
Can you imagine having to perform break up songs with your ex for nights on end? No wonder they were coked out of their mind! No wonder the music had so much passion.
even with all the drugs and roaring of the crowd couldn't disguise the inner pain & heartache , so yes music was the outlet. how could you not perform without passion with such background of feelings swirling around , totally unfolding on-stage . holding it all together was probably a nightmare . what a show'....
Wow! You were there?
I'd do Stevie, and I'd do coke, and I'd love it all!
Fuck that shit, Pabst Blue Ribbon!
You should see Lindsay singing Goodbye with Stevie Nicks...he is actually singing it to her heart to heart!
4:59 my man fought through a heart attack and kept right on drumming like a legend
Lmfao 💀💀💀
Probably from all the coke
My maaaaaan. 😂😂😂😂😂☠️
I feel the only reason the coke didn't kill him is because howactive he is as a drummer. Dude had no brakes and all gas.
I think he was 31 or 32 here and looked 50
Cocaine heart attack
It was the 70s, they were coked out of their minds and this performance is legendary and one of their best!! RIP Christine McVie and thank you Fleetwood Mac for your part in making the 70s great 👍 ❤
When did she die?
thanks!
@@peggyb5516 this year!
@@tauanmoncalvo4367 thank you
@@peggyb5516I wonder if Google would know…
I'm so glad we have these concerts from back in the 1970s on video. Nothing today compares.
You’re unfortunately not looking where you should be man.
Such a biased sentence.
I was just thinking that.
The energy of the crowd is insane.
They also snorted up big piles of coke before the show.
They weren't focused on recording the show on their phones
That’s how it was!!!
Only a band like this could produce that type of energy from a crowd. they were 1 of a kind, to never be replaced.
Insanely loud
Stevie Nick's parents were probably thinking, "Well, I guess those tambourine lessons finally paid off."
Does the Tambourine even made a Sound in this? Lol.
@@pierceelyhibionada342 If it does, only Stevie can hear it.
well considering she wrote this song about her break up with Buckingham yeah i say they did
Ouch...i liked the way she'd float across the stage in her black flowing chiffon.....
@@smokiebird06 She's My Hero, Btw I'm a Accomplished Tambourine Player.
Mick Fleetwood playing those drums like he was hiding in the bushes coked up watching Stevie and Lindsay fighting again. Effin legendary
This is EASILY one of the best songs pop music has ever generated. The heartbreak, the sorrow, the grief...it's all splashing off of it. Wow! Shivers!
Agree, but I’m not sure it falls under pop. It’s rock, back when rock was the popular music.
This is not pop, it is rock!
Absolutely their best song... 🎶 🎵 🎼 ever.
@@vitorpardal3713 the original way the word 'pop' was used was to refer to music with melodies that stuck that belonged on radio. an umbrella term which *included* much of the rock of the day. i.e. jethro tull was even considered 'pop.'
that term being usurped by the whitney houston and mj synthey crowd in the 80s meant that these inane comments would ensue in places like here, but the convo is just stupid. who cares how you *categorize* anymore. eff boxes, it's for absolute noodles
still. original sense and usage of the word? this song is pop. it is rock that is under the umbrella term pop. sorry, but it's the truth.
It's more soft rock
well, this explains why I couldn't get cocaine in 1979
Hah!!!
HAHAHA
It was because of Steven and Joe that you couldn't find any blow.
@@melaniehead2282 lol, the toxic twins vacuumed up _all_ the remaining snow.
likely just as well. ...
😆
That bass is killing me slowly IT'S SO GOOD.
I graduated in 1975 and this is an example of the music we listed to, this was the tail end of a magical era which I would return to, but damn it, I can't. Oh well, this stuff was real.
@@randilevendusky5869 Yes Randi, I graduated in 1975 also; and all the bands were played and listened to at that time in different venue's.
powerful
@@randilevendusky5869 I graduated in '67. Summer of Love
Been in love with Stevie since the White Album..... too bad a 100 million guys feel the same.
I can’t get this image of Stevie Nicks playing a tambourine on the damn floor out of my head.
Lindsey's solo is one of the greatest rock n' roll solos ever, and yet it only shows a small fraction of his technical facility on the instrument. It is the PERFECT solo for the song. He could have gone off on some great soloing tangent, and it would've been good, but he plays here to serve the song.
THAT is what makes him one of the greats. He often "speaks softly but carries a big stick" musically, by exercising restraint.
Lindsey was a son of a bitch friend to Stevie. I'm still trying to figure out why he abused her
Man if I could go back in time to see them in concert❤
Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can make you feel, better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello will put a smile on your face..
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please
pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I
just wanted to know if you're a fan ? Have a
great day.. Stay Safe
Go back in time and date Stevie Nicks.
Akron civic theater 75, damn, love at first sight.
4:58 he’s discovering a new dimension in time and space.
You do that much vintage cocaine, and you will too.
At 2:00 Lindsey Buckingham is tweaking out pretty hard too.
@@thedystopianherald3678 not the whole fuckign song then?
agreed, it looks theatrical but at the back of the stage behind a fucking great drum kit he'd pretty much think he was alone.. and as you say, he's crossed over.... MF for the win! :D
The bass in this song just kills it, truly makes the song special
Totally agree. Can’t wait till he settle along and followed by Buckingham’s excellent solo.
Really ties it together...
No shit.
Facts!
🙌🎯
I've heard this song probably 1000 times (studio version) and this performance here blew me away. Musicians def don't make music like this anymore
Yes they do but u have to search carefully
They do, it's just the populous listens to and promotes absolute shit.
They dont even make music...they make money
And that's not a compliment twords them
Facts
Mick and Lindsay, especially, just get so into this performance that I can't stop watching it. The entire band are playing off each other's cues. Watching Mick is like watching a man possessed, his face says it all. Then the bass kicks up and I'm lost in it.
Mr. Buckingham is a terribly underrated guitar player
He's a monster on guitar! No pick, uses his fingers. He stole the show with his performance on this song.
No he isn’t people love him... Peter green is fucking underrated and the true soul behind fleetwood mac
Dude is brillithe the guitar & he are one with each other! I LOVE him
@@ilovemyeggs Barf.
Not in his mind.
Stevie Nicks gives her ex lover Lindsey Buckingham the best side eye EVER while singing “If you don’t love me now, you will never love me again” !!!
Because, he was letting it all out! Lol
Your so right I thought the same thing
Ikr! And she even wrote the original of it and the band and her switched the lyrics a bit but still!
Oh those harmonies! And can we finally give John McVie some props for his AMAZING bass lines?
The power of the harmonies.
Pretty sure everyone has always acknowledged this bassline.
the bass is 100% the best part in this song for me. And I believe this is their best as well.
I saw them 3 times between 79 and 82. The best concerts I ever went to. Simply stunning!
So lucky! I tried to see them but my 2 year old gurgling wasn’t understood by my parents. My 12 year old daughter is wanted to show me this song and i am ever since obsessed with Rumours
I saw both the 🎉Rumors tour and Tusk tour. Both absolutely amazing.
I saw them in 1980 Open Air in Kaiserslautern Stadium
You’re so lucky
Lindsey Buckingham may really be that one guitarist that everybody calls the most underrated ever.
And they would be right this time.
Yep, either him or Alex Lifeson.
He is okay… average level. But a good singer.
@@gowwar491 I agree, average guitarist
No member of Mac is underrated.
The close up shots of Mick Fleetwood in this are priceless comedic gold.
@Frank Bear... He's quite a bit higher than that.
Hes got a touch of the drummerface
i always thought he got off watching his bandmates open their souls and spill their guts
@@thewkovacs316 Well, it is the drummer's job to facilitate that, so... It could be.
Legendary
I watched and I wept. How did we leave this raw, soulful, beautiful music behind and settle for X Factor?
Declining national IQ?
Always keep in mind that our media in all of its forms has now become the number one enemy of this country. All of it is controlled by the democrats and the Chinese Communist Party. (they are in bed with each other on everything)
It's a 100% top down process these days, rather than being created by people who worked their way up.
Thank God for the 70's and that I had parents who ĺistened to this. I could not agree more.
Money.
The Chain remained in tact until the sad passing of Christine McVie . A great song performed by 5 great musicians , a great band .
R.I..P Christine McVie
3:48..one of the most recognizable bass riffs ..EVER
It’s really easy to learn too
4.20 amazing
Yes. Only with white powder.
Literally had it on my mind all day long so now I’m here listening again to it… amazing masterpiece 🖤🤍
Most famously used by the BBC for their Formula 1 coverage.
Stevie nicks was such a babe
George Gray metallic
Ricky Burnett *metallica
I fail to question this comment chain.
was?
Cali Braxus thats christine mcvie your talking about the other chick doing the voice over is Stevie nicks. The one with the crazy hair. 1:50
Fricken hell....absolute prime. And the crowd. What I wouldn't give to be able to have experienced these shows. My parents got to see some amazing acts in their prime ill forever be jealous of them for that.
Again, 1970’s concerts..can’t beat ‘em!!!!!
Too bad the volume is so low because this is clearly the best version ever.
9thchild .....Absofuckinglutely this is the best version ever....
1982 live version from the LA Forum.
Well, the crowd's screaming Beatles-like response to the band didn't help.
I absolutely agree. I can’t believe I was 14 at the time. Fleetwood Mac is one if the best rock and roll groups forever. ❤️
I feed you tube to my guitar amp
So real. Stevie and Lindsey sneaking glances at each other.
Truly soulmates who lost their way from each other.
She had that look take me take me now any which way you choose.
Silver springs
i have no idea how you can say that with a straight face lol
Aren't they back together
go outside
What amazes me is that Nicks was hands down the most beautiful woman on earth then. Quite on top of being a fantastic singer and songwriter.
Lindsey absolutely shreds it in this video. U can just FEEL every emotion he's going thru when he does this song, "I'm so afraid" and "go your own way" u can tell by watching Lindsey and Stevie they have alot of passion and heartache between them Both
Yes 😢. His body language and vocals in this performance appear to be so visceral that it's mesmerizing.
He was also coked out of his skull. This was during the “Tusk” era and their drug use had increased significantly. Stevie looks like she’s just trying to stay out of his way.
Fleetwood Mac: *breathes*
Crowd: AHHHHHHHHHHH OMG AHHHHHHHH
Noki Gaming its me ....im the crowd lol
Crowd on same coke as the band 😂
Same
Imagine, no cell phones, no social media, no cable tv for most, no internet... going to a concert was a big release (and it was great)
It kills me how Stevie is so confused and concerned about Lindsey's aggressively passionate singing and guitar playing. She is like "oh no he did too much in the backstage here we go"
Is this song specifically about those two? I'm too young to remember - or more accurately I didn't exist for another 10 years after this! Makes me laugh how certain ppl are joking about cocaine, the bands use and even their own use, yet they wouldn't dream of letting modern youth near it!
yes , the album Rumours itself was the result of bad breakups and cheating between the members !
Yes, she looks as if she disapproves!
@@mid.life.crisis2955 All members of the band contributed to the song, Christine also broke up with John during this time - add alcohol, tempestuous emotions - no wonder the song is so good.
@@mid.life.crisis2955Well, the thing about that is cocaine back then was just cocaine. Cocaine now is paint thinner, something that smells like gasoline, baby laxative, and a a sprinkle of cocaine unless you are hauling it straight off the farms in South America 😂 the only drug that has gotten better over time is weed.
A lot of the passion comes from Lindsey, he puts his guts in this song. Mick is brilliant too.
Real musicians. Real music.
And real coke.
To bad people don’t realize the power of emotion of music such as this. It can make you cry while giving you goosebumps. It doesn’t come along often enough
It's too and what are you even talking about
I get what you’re saying. Yes, it can make you cry while giving you goosebumps. ❤️
it's too and HUH...who are those 'people' not realizing the power of emotion of music. WTF are you talking about.
I feel blessed and very grateful to have grown up with this music...absolutely incredible, once in a million group!!!
I have read the comments linked to your reply and can see a variety of comments...mainly positive. I followed them from early seventies and still play their music when I feel I need an uplift. Thank you Fleetwood Mac for making it so.
4:58 Hahahahahaha Mick's done to much powder, he's gonna have a f..kin heart attack
Ruffnek Renegade 98 he very lucky he alive.
@@tinaobanion816 yes and he has admitted he doesn't know why he survived and others didn't. It controlled his life for a long time. He knows he's very lucky to have survived all those years of abuse.
oh yeah...he's a fookin' maniac, remember his service w/spinal tap???...that's right...fucker needed not only a nurse monitoring his heart rate...but a flame retardant suit as well. it gets no more sicker then that, hahahaha!!!
how many grams would he sniff a night
@@stravinskytheterrible8072 my coke addiction had me doing 3+ grams a day. Roughly $200+ a day. Mick was a rock start with plenty of money, so there's no telling. But I'm gonna say he's done enough coke for all the people in the comments
This is one of the performances where, despite the relatively poor audio quality, I will take this live version over the studio version any day of the week.
Christine was sooo damn good
I remember going to this concert... it was my 1st concert...ahhh memories
11-10-1979 in Cincinnati Ohio at Riverfront
+Kim Bowling lucky!!
i was ten but i remember that show! i wanted to go so bad!! :)

@@BIG_AL_ONE just because you can reply, doesn't mean you should. stay off youtube and stay in school, bozo
@@josephverbosky6734 bruce sweats like a hog in heat. dude needs an oxygen tank on half his songs
Always considered this their best song. I’m still very shaken by the loss of Christine McVie. The ability to overcome all the strife time, and time again is what truly made me respect the band.
I had a group of friends that I always thought of regarding this song, but The Chain has been broken which makes listening to the song even more difficult. R.I.P. Christine, and carry on Fleetwood Mac.
RIP CHRISSIE. You will be sadly missed. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the joyous music you gave to not only me but the UNIVERSE!!
I've decided the bassline at towards the end of this song is one of the greatest in all of Rock N Roll history
Good decision
Me too
Yes will always be remembered for F1 , great song by a great band .🇬🇧🏎
Mhmmm. Okay it is soooo 👍
Stevie was just mesmerizing in those days. You can't take your eyes off her when she's on stage.
You can say that again. She was model-perfect. So rare to find talent and beauty together like that. You know Rhiannon is basically autobiographical, whether Stevie would admit it or not..
Beauty AND voice, what a powerful duo she had.
She's my role model: sexy, beautiful and the best female singer of all times.
I'm female. I wanted them to keep showing that marvelous drum rhythm and the great bass line being played. Skip her.
She still is 🙌🏻queen of awesome
They did real live unforgettable "Concerts" back then, you really got your money's worth for a life time! 👍🙂
If you read Stephen Davis’s book Gold Dust Woman the biography of Stevie Nicks you get a complete window into how deeply and dedicated all of the members of Fleetwood Mac were into music. They all lived and breathed instruments , harmonies and song lyrics from before they left school. When that comes together as a group, you get this, perfection.
You can almost hear the cocaine..
ultraviolins that's the funniest thing I ever read 😂
Crypto Sports almost as funny as “President Hillary Clinton”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You can almost feel the drop at the back of your throat
I literally laughed in my bed at 3 am
Jesse Rosenthal how can you tell?
RUMORS...one of the best all time rock albums ever👊🏼
I'm a 50 year old rock musician and have been in bands since early 80s and I actually am gonna listen to it for the FIRST TIME now.
THE BEST........oh the memories :)
It's not rumors, it's true.
definitely maybe
FACT
After over 70 years of listening, I'm thinking that Mick Fleetwood is the greatest rock and roll drummer ever. What energy, what back beat, what personality! I'm I wrong?
nein! you are right, Dear .........
Wish I could time travel transport to this live show
Just a guess - the music is great but they appear to be about as high as humans can get and still perform. Great stuff.
They are high on their music. Ya, they had their day but they all survived and they're better than ever. That's a lesson to you old man.
Chuck Horne you are rude & extremely old & ugly inside
Leon Barzin - I think Stevie Nicks once said she kept cocaine in her shoe. Not surprised.
@@anti-abuseassociates1229 : Listen flower petal, who did not take drugs to enhance their performance. But you still have to be talented to come up with songs like this. Stop making excuses and appreciate the talent that will make the world a happier place and these guys will just do that.
Poor Leon Barzin I bet he wished he never typed now.
The origins of this song was that Fleetwood Mac were going through troubles within the band.., they were splitting at the seems.., this song "The Chain" was to remind them of why they were doing what they do.., that nobody was above the group as a whole.., and that no one person could.., "Break The Chain!".
*seams
Paul G normally, I’m also a grammar nazi, but, please, just enjoy the music, my dude. Be inside the beat. Feel the bass kick hit your soul. Let the guitar flow through your veins. The synth is one with your heartbeat. Just _let go_ and let the Mac do their thing...
I got that feeling watching their faces as it starts, when their eyes scan back & forth over each other....wow.
Lindsey always thought he was bigger than the band
And cocaine. A lot of cocaine.
RIP Christine. You sang like an angel.
THE MUSIC. THE LEGENDS.
Mick probably had 3 heart attacks that night so much coke and just pounding on the drums
😆🤣😂👍🏽
Simply incredible performance...the glances sideways over from Nicks to Buckingham tell it all, even to this day. Iconic.
R. I .P Christine McVie ,79. Always a songbird
Best times of my life&worth the withdrawal😎
4:59, when you realise you've left your bag of coke at home.
Lmao
😂
LMAO....I kept clicking to se what happens at 4:59....I think you are CORRECT!
I love that mick is still like that at this age. A genius
You, sir, made my day. Lol
So jealous of all the people at this concert. I bet it was so amazing!!!
I can't honestly imagine that it was a great experience simply because of the crowd shreaking in waves like theyre on a roller coaster....they sound like children.. ..
+Nch Croy: This is what great music does to you. What did you expect...everybody going to sleep LOL?
Saw them, (My very first concert) 1977. Kenny Loggins opened for "BigMac" @ the Providence R.I. Civic Center!!!!! The next concert, (same location) was HEART, it don't git no betterer!!
You saw Heart live?? and Fleetwood Mac? That's freakin awesome.
Heather Smith I was lucky enough to see Fleetwood Mac twice on the marathon 1979-1980 Tusk tour. My 1st show, on Dec 1st 1979 blew me away! Got "stadium seats" (standing seats on the field of an indoor football stadium) for $10. Stood outside in single digit temperatures for 3 hours, waiting for the stadium security to let the crowd in. Doors opened and ran in. Got 20 feet from the stage right in the middle! Wow! I was amazed how much they rocked in person vs the album recordings. Lindsay Buckingham was on fire! The band was still in their prime musically...and they had the money to buy the best equipment! Remember them playing the Chain! Really loved how they'd turn the lights down midway through the song...,and then the rhythm section of John McVie & Mick Fleetwood would kick-in...1st Mick tapping on the drums, then John chiming in w the 1st bass line, then the spotlight hit John, " doog-dada-doog" and then Lindsay joined in the fun w that magnificent guitar jam...."running in the shadows". I remember turning around, after the song ended, as crowd erupted, and the house lights went down. All I saw were Bic Lighters ablaze everywhere and 20,000+ stomping their feet for more!
The song has an almost operatic quality to it, what with the internal conversations going on during it.
One aspect of this song hasn’t even been alluded to in any of these comments - John McVie’s bass solo. Sounds like thunder coming down from the heavens. It carries the entire last two minutes of the song. After the guitar comes back in John just goes into full beast mode. If anyone in Fleetwood Mac could be considered underrated, it’s Mr. McVie. He and Mick are the glue that have kept this band going all these years.
I’m proud to call John my first bass teacher. I can’t read a note of music, but I learned to play by playing along with “Rumours”. At one point or another, bands I’ve played in over the past 45+ years have played every single song on the album plus “Silver Springs”. I’ve JUST ABOUT got it right after all this time.
It should also be noted that McVie is playing a one-of-a-kind Alembic Series I fretless bass with a stainless steel fretboard.
When concerts were about MUSIC. That fucking CROWD. That everything.
The chemistry stevie and lindsey had and still do is deep very deep
It's called a "soul tie"...that's "The Chain"...
Fuelled by pounds and pounds of cocaine, but what great music. 'Glad they're all still alive!
True. I'm just reading about The Band now too. 3 out of five, on heroin, cocaine, drinking, smashing up cars, relationships falling apart. Tragic.

cocaine and the cheating brought out the best of fleetwood mac, what are you talking about? Half the songs are about breakups/cheating and the incredible performance brought on by their cocaine use.
So true, it's like that with most bands but not all bands. They write all there best material high. Later on they sober up and records sales plummet.
+Linda King Cocaine and other drugs should be legal but carefully regulated. It would end the bloodbath that is the international drug trade.
Nothing better

and Lindsey is one of the most under-rated guitarists in rock. He does it all without a pick and not much sustain...
Tom George alot great ones do it without a pic
hell yeah Lindsey is the best around very underated one of the great guitar players ,I also believe johns one of the greatest bass players and micks one of the greatest drummers to have played rock and roll , truly one of the best rock bands ever , as someone else said this is rock not the autotuned lipsyncing talentless dipshits coming out in this era.
gary s I totally agree with you. I wonder why some really terrific bands just get overlooked??
Just listen to the BASSMAN doing his thang!!!! keep on pluckin John..love that bass..
Loooove that bass solo. Never fails to fuck up with my head
should be given more cam time! I always note basslines first!
Crowd collectively going insane and I love it!
There is soooo much happening in this video.
The drama going on behind this performance is as awesome as this performance. Wow.
I'm betting a sober LB is incredibly intense. A LB coked off his face would have to be insane. Like really insane. I would still worship.
Omg I'm new to them so can you explain what that drama is?
Absentee Childhood I am fascinated by Lindsey's unique finger picking style. Mic Fleetwood is buzzed out of his mind.
Absentee Childhood explain.....
Absentee Childhood You've got that right! Intense! lt was like adding fuel to the fire, but it certainly made for some of the best song writing they ever did.
I want to be Stevie Nicks sooo bad 😂 even with her hair in a backcombed beehive she is the epitome of style.

God damned real fucking music. Gimme an AMEN.

Amen Brother!!
And hey look! What are those things called? Instruments??!!! No added effects so they can sing???Holy Crap!! (LOL)
I bought there album rumors when I was 9 years old back in 1977
1979 the year my first child was born. Excellent song
Lindsey Buckingham was rated as #100 of the greatest guitarists ever by Rolling Stone magazine. I'd put him above at least 90 of the others they listed - and he often sang lead besides!
Ke Mac SEVERELY under rated.
Lynyrd Skynyrd's 70's band has the best guitarists.
I always rated Lindsey one of the best. No one else at the time played as he did. They tried to replace him with 2 guitarists and it did not work. That was how good he was(and still is if you watch him and Stevie on Letterman in '09).
Great guitarist! Top 10 is way too much though...
@@1besieged they had the best guitarists in Lynyrd Skynyrd anyway
I love watching Mick Fleetwood when the band is pumping. Here is a man who feels the music in every fibre of his being.
that's so rare to find in anybody, imho.
The fact that he's high on acid probably helps too.
@AussieMark909, You'd be "pumping" too if you were doing an 8-ball every hour, on the hour, like all the members of Fleetwood Mac were doing back in 79'. LOL.

As I liked Christine McVie's voice, wonderful, I remember songs on the radio like You Make Loving Fun or Little Lies. RIP Christine.
a voice gone
That drummer is having the time of his life!!
The drummer is Mick Fleetwood, just so you know.
Working his butt off to keep the fast paced beat going that is - along with the (percussion) acrobatics that made playing this all the more complex & challenging. Not that he didn't enjoy himself, I'm sure he did, but it was above all a "LABOR of love" to be in his shoes here.
Sara sarc nah that’s just Mick. He’s always got that stoned-out-of-his-fucking-mind look when he plays. Watch Chain and Gold Dust Woman during the “On With The Show” tour and you’ll see.
There’s a fine line between “having the time of your life” and “overdosing”
See his face. Hahaha. High as a damn kite
I have never understood why Lindsey was never named with the likes of Clapton and Hendrix, He is one of the best guitarists ever!
George Duncan ehhhhhh. He’s good with his fingerpicking style and rhythmic playing but he really can’t compare to jimi or Eric
Daniel Backiel Certainly one of the great pickers, right up there with Roy Rogers. Nobody touches Jimi IMO
Guitar World and some of the other guitar mags consistently rank Lindsey as one of the best of all time! Mind you, that list keeps growing each decade however his musicianship has been key to keeping Fleetwood on the radar.
his fingerstyle doesn't even compare with classical players and his solo's are generic pentatonic trash. he's a self trained hippy guitarist
Well for one he wrote for an ensemble band that didn't have a proper 'frontman', and also his guitar playing isn't center stage either. I'd put him up against Clapton though. I always thought Clapton was incredibly overrated. He had a few good years with Cream and Blind Faith and it all went downhill from there.
Sadly, music like this is never going to return. I'm old enough to remember and young enough to appreciate
If we could time travel Id go back to the late 70s and 80s everytime I got the chance✌
Simple music can make you sing, a simple hug can make you feel, better, simple things can make you happy, I hope my simple hello will put a smile on your face..
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please
pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I
just wanted to know if you're a fan ? Have a
great day.. Stay Safe
And that my friends is what you call rock and roll back in the days still enjoying it in 2020
Kids today have no clue what real music sounds like.
That hip hop garbage........😖
@@artz9643 they said the same thing about rock music back in the day. Stop being an old fart.
@@miamitten1123 You sound like someone who doesn't appreciate good music.
Taylor Swift gets inspirations from breakups with boyfriends
Stevie Knicks makes them sing the songs.
This is the greatest comment ever 😂
Buckingham wrote go your own way, and the chain was all 5 of them. But you still right, Taylor Swift sucks haha.

I remember this concert tour,,,,, I think I paid about $11.50 for a ticket, and that was pretty steep back then.
Jackle61 wow

You would never break the chain (never break the chain)
And if you don't love me now (you don't love me now)
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying (still hear you saying)
You would never break the chain (never break the chain)
And if you don't love me now (you don't love me now)
You will never love me again
