I don't know of any music that compares to the 70s. I am sick almost 69 years old and I still enjoy the old rock and roll. Nothing compares to it. I'm still a rock and roll seventies person
Zeppelin, Kiss, The Who, AC/DC, Fleetwood Mac, Motorhead, and the Eagles were my favorite bands ever and I am 47 years old, so I was born in 76, and wish I could have seen them all live, but I was a bit too young!!!

Try U-tube the 97 performance and then you will see 👀!!! They were all clean and sober and focused and the best live version of any song possibly ever!!!
the snowdawg Neil Peart, yeah,great no doubt! But I'm talking about the kind of drummer who pushes the band mercilessly, and the band has really good songs. For me, sorry, but Rush doesn't make it.
the snowdawg I know Rush has a lot of passionate fans, and I don't feel good about putting the band down, but to me the singer is the most important aspect of most bands, and Geddy sounds like a Chipmunk to me. Just can't get past that fact, I hate his voice, and don't like their songs, their overall sound, as a result. Love Lindsay Buckingham's voice. Just comes down to what you like. Love Neil Peart's drumming.
Six minutes and nine seconds of sex, drugs, rock and roll, love, hate, friendship, betrayal, raw talent...the Seventies, ladies and gentlemen, in a microcosm.
I TOTALLY agree with your 1st part, but I don't agree with 'the 70's' part. Hell, Cash, GnR, the Stones... have also sung about the same things, under the influence of similar substances, thru out the years. But, the angst of Linsey, after Stevie was porking Henly+Fleetwood in 76ish, is trully POWERFUL!
My God....They killed this song...That energy at that time and place cannot be duplicated.... incredible ending to an incredible song by an incredible band...
I love how the narrative of their repsective breakups really shows in the dynamics amongst the members of the band and how they interact with each other. Buckingham, pissed off and angry, Nicks looking for solidarity with a happy looking Chris whilst her disaster of a husband but glorious bass player looks to jam with her but moves on to playing with Fleetwood instead. I see more in there each time I watch it.
Wow that is some performance. Don’t think I’ve ever heard a piece of rock music being played quite so viscerally as that. That was just RAW!!! Lindsay Buckingham is soo unrated as a genius guitarist . Boy can that man play or what ???? Love it Primitive and barbaric, just wild.
it's his work as a producer that's underrated.....this song is one of the best...talking about the studio version. All these band members were seriously "enhanced" during this period but it was Lindsey who dragged his ass into the studio every day in with the engineer to get these classics on tape for the world.
Parlons du guitariste!! c'est quand même très succinct comme jeu de guitare! Il y avait moyen de placer un beau solo sur ce morceau !! Là on a quelques notes qui traînent et une moulinette qui dure, dure, ... Il a pas beaucoup de technique le gars
I'm from Liverpool now 60 , just seen and listened to this for the first time, I've never heard a better song and sound in my life that includes lennon that was pure raw class.
Michael Lively AGREED! I’m not a big fan of FM, but listening to LB playing was amazing. I wanted to see them down here for the Jazz Fest (N.O.), but they cancelled. In any case, I had no idea that LB had been kicked out of FM. I can’t imagine not having LB in the band. Is Peter Greene still alive?
The 70's was such a beautiful time! Oh how I miss that and feel so badly for the younger ones who didn't get a chance to experience that time. This country was a lot freer back then!
I'm one of those younger ones. I always wish I could have been born in the 60's so I could expirience the 70s as a teenager. I didn't even get to expirience the 80s either. Born in 1993.
You're a puppy! I was born 1960. Great band! I have one Son who is 35 and he likes them, and another who is 30, but he's a complete metal head! Nothing wrong with metal but I like variety too!
It's amazing what a great song can do, even one about you that you hate. Stevie could not be any less enthusiastic in the first three minutes. Apathetic is a kind descriptor. And yet, that ending solo jam even gets her dancing and bopping her head. It speaks volumes as to the power of music.
Maybe because the lyrics are over. Im sure she probably doesnt mind the music, its the shacking up bit that she doesnt like. Funny thing is I watched the 2019 version, with the new guy singing. One would have thought she would have made him change that line, but nope, its still there

Lindsey finger picking the entire time. that's amazing! and that's talent. a musician would understand finger picking like that requires a shit ton of skill.
Best band ever and Lindsey Buckingham is out of this world as a guitarist!!!!! I think I probably watched this video at least 50 times.Thank God for You Tube.
I saw them in 1977, at Folsom Field, in Boulder, on the North American leg of the Rumours Tour . we drove over the mountains from Glenwood Springs . was a great show . Bob Seger was also there, with Firefall, and John Sebastian also . set a record for the amount of people in the stadium, that beautiful spring day in May.
Passionate guitar playing, only a woman can cause you to play that angry I really like Lindsey's sound with the Telecaster, sounds really raw. God, this rocks so ferociously! Mick Fleetwood is such a great drummer!
Still ranks as one of the best songs ever written / performed, due in large part to the very real angst between Stevie and Lindsey. How explosive they must have been the short time they were together... it's one of those things that you get past but never over... We all have those experiences, right??
Casual fan who was linked to this from Facebook. Wow, bass player is killing it. After listening to this song, that’s what sticks in my head.....those melodic bass lines.
She can't let go of him. He can't let go of her. The perfect rock and roll love story infused with drugs, cheating, sex,lies, hurt anger and tears. They really need to be together. It is written in the stars. They keep the band together so they can still be together.
Don Avon Mick Fleetwood denied that he had an affair in those times in the excellent John Peel BBC video on FM. The rest of the video is well worth watching.
Recommend Stevie's biography, too. It would be interesting to compare the two, incident by incident. I suspect they're both discouragingly gracious about it now; I want to read about the blood and guts... not a retrospective love fest. Call me sick.
"If loving you isn't the right thing to do, how can I, ever change things that I feel?" I don't think there are many opening lines to songs better than that. And they TOTALLY bring it home as musicians. What a song.

Ok, so for all those people who put Fleetwood Mac under the 'soft rock' category, just check this out and you will never utter those words again. This is just awesome, the band in full swing, at their peak just rocking it out. As per usual, John holds it together and when he introduces that killer base riff at the end, they all just go off. And Mick, go you good thing, love your style man
Recorded on December 1977, it was Spring of 1978 when this video was broadcasted in Japan. THis show shocked us in Japan, completely different from any music else, and Lindsey, Chris, and Stevie brought us someplace new and unknown. From that time still now.... I am with Mac, Stevie, and Lindsey. Great Music !!
Buckingham's hate-song for tambourine gurl Stevie Nicks -- who got in cahootin' then with mainman/drummer Mick Fleetwood; quite a marvel they can perform amidst authentic internal turmoil alongsides John & Christine McVie who were in the middle of their divorce-ing at this point - and bottomline: they rock! A steamblower this is. Fantastical yea
I ask forgiveness for some people and pardon for other ones. but, Fleetwood Mac was, if not the best, at least one of the second or third best band this country ever made.
Genius! This 1977 performance evoking the Women’s Liberation era - the masculine freeing the feminine … camera focused on Lindsey and glimpses of the free woman in Stevie Nicks holding up her arms like the ancient Cretan Snake Goddess - the last stance of Goddess in the phallic Greek culture.
The cake is Mick, John, Christine, and Lindsey. How did the frosting ever become the tyrant of the band? So grateful I got to see them whole. Rest in Peace songbird Christine. With no Christine and Lindsey, the band died hard, regardless of the frosting. no dis to m.c. who rocks in his own right
That electric piano/organ that Christine McVie played back then weighed a ton. Had them in concert while I was in college in the mid 1970's. This is exactly how they looked back then. I had to help get Christine's piano/organ up on the stage and it took about 5 of us to do it. That was one awesome concert!
This is my all-time favorite live version of “Go Your Own Way” as Lindsay’s guitar riffs sound almost exactly the same as the actual record before the extended solo at the end. Other live versions of this song over the years have strayed so much from the original. Fleetwood Mac really knew how to play this song the right way back in 1977.
Well, six years later you get n answer. In 1977 the breakup was still raw as hell and hurt bad. This is certainly an intense version of the song, but if you watch the video from the live album in the late 90s when they do this the passion is still there, but both of them ( Lindsay and Stevie ) are working together on the one instead of screaming at each other. Makes the song better in my opinion
Fucking awesome! Lindsey Buckinghams guitar work on Go Your Own Way ranks up there as one of the best. Whenever I hear this song I have to stop what I am doing and stick my head in the speaker. I get pulled in and can't pull away until the song ends. And, he wrote the song and the band recorded at, The Record Plant in Sausalito, California. Just across the bay from San Francisco where Stevie and Lindsey first met and fell in love.
This is another awesome version of this song that I love. It's my anthem for both my former husbands. :-))) You can go your own way...go you own way...
Sadie.... Both former husbands ??? Whatttt. U seem so young. Girl U sud of been in this band Cas U sure fit in w' the group & all their love boo boos. -ha. 😚
I come here periodically to just hear what PERFECTION sounds like... Never has a band been so in tuned and able to push each other in probably the Greatest performance of one song recorded live... Prince's epic "Purple Rain" show stopper @ the Syracuse Arena in '85 is a very close second...
I just love this band I remember very vividly this album when it came out in 1977! That summer i was going into my Junior year of HS! My buddy and i spent the whole summer jamming to this awesome album!
Me too, I was going into senior year. I remember, every week on the countdown that, Rumours could not still be #1 but, there it was selling 800,000 copies a week all summer long. What a great summer.
At first you wanna say “Lindsey bro, just move on” but then you realize it was the Stevie Nicks who broke up with him and the passion and emotion makes perfect sense…imagine having Stevie Nicks break your ❤️…
srsly the live versions from 77 are so damn intense. the pure emotions... its like you can grab them. i do love the version from the dance aswell, cause thats when they hit their peak in a professional way, but man... 77... there are no words to discribe what timeless art came out of their pain
Gutsy performance! Love that his voice is at its limit! I've always marveled how such an odd-timing song could have become so popular with the Great Unwashed. Magnificent! It snuck through a hole in everyone's defenses!
Damn!!! Lindsey Headbanging STRONG in '77...BEFORE Metal Broke Big... This band was so tight back then... I wish I could have seen them live at the height of their powers...
Heading north on Panamint Valley Road, just past the Ballarat turnoff, is an 8 mile long straightaway. It's pretty flat, but a couple of whoop-de-do's, so don't go real fast. But play this and go fast!
I think around this time she was dating Don Henley and he had started dating somebody else and she was really hurt about it. She sings about it on one of the songs on Tusk I think I forgot the name of the song. She still loved him but knew it wouldn't work and she still wanted him and didnt want him to be with anybody else so she was very hurt and you can see it here.
Ahoj,tato kapela vstoupila navždy do dějin rockové muziky.Jeji projev včetně nádherného vokálu a fenomenálního kytaristy to byl jeden z vrcholů muziky🍀
i had 2 babysitters as an 8 year old in 1977, my neighbor barbara and my cousin julie ann and the one thing they had in common is that they both brought the fleetwood mac rumors album to jam on our turntable. i learned at a young age just how great this music was
Kids, you see there was once a time long ago when bands sang and played their music in the most inspirational way humans can do this... and it was exhilarating!!!
This song had 4 distinct rhythm's, one after the other in it's opening, followed by John's Bass, 1. Lindsey's Electric, 2. A 12 string rhythm, 3.The Vocal, and 4. lastly Mic on drums. Check out the SIXTH member at 2:14- (the only non-Mac addition in the concert). When I saw them in '77 at the Providence Civic Center, I was wondering how they would add the 12 string, ans: he was mostly hidden in shadow. GREAT Group, and days missed!
No pyrotechnics, no flashing strobes, no smoke machines, just raw fucking kick ass rock and roll.
2024, I Am soon turning 58, and this still sounds so good!!!!
🙏❤️❤️
yes, no thank to Nicks
I don't know of any music that compares to the 70s. I am sick almost 69 years old and I still enjoy the old rock and roll. Nothing compares to it. I'm still a rock and roll seventies person
and i love you for it! i'm 45 and love this stuff!!!
Zeppelin, Kiss, The Who, AC/DC, Fleetwood Mac, Motorhead, and the Eagles were my favorite bands ever and I am 47 years old, so I was born in 76, and wish I could have seen them all live, but I was a bit too young!!!

Might be the only night since 1974 all 5 were sober. And yeah, Dance is amazing of course.
😊 Sinon la version 1982 à Los Angeles ( " Mirage Tour " ) est pas bal aussi!!
Killer version. I miss the days when concerts were this good. They never disappointed live.
AI is killing genuine raw talent, but eventually people will want to experience human nature again and this will make a resurgance.
Incredible version ....agree miss these great shows. Glad I grew up with them all.
Watch a concert of the band The Disco Biscuits. They are the best live band of all time IMHO
i went this concert in budokan japan when i was 14 yats old, i cant imagine that i could see that scene again. i am 62 years oid now,
God, this rocks so ferociously! Mick Fleetwood is such a great drummer!
Perhaps the best in all Rock.
Sven Redbeard really man?? i take it u never heard of neil peart.. he eats dudes like mick fleetwood up for breakfast...
the snowdawg Neil Peart, yeah,great no doubt! But I'm talking about the kind of drummer who pushes the band mercilessly, and the band has really good songs. For me, sorry, but Rush doesn't make it.
Richie R u can't be for real Ritchie..... Rush has like 30 studio albums dude....!!
the snowdawg I know Rush has a lot of passionate fans, and I don't feel good about putting the band down, but to me the singer is the most important aspect of most bands, and Geddy sounds like a Chipmunk to me.

Six minutes and nine seconds of sex, drugs, rock and roll, love, hate, friendship, betrayal, raw talent...the Seventies, ladies and gentlemen, in a microcosm.
Fortunately, I made it through the 70s without drugs. Didn't want to do anything those damned hippies were associated with.
Well said! It takes me back there, and I am both nostalgic and relieved that it's all over.
No denial of what was going on here. lol.
I was born in the 70's and just learning about the early stages of this band and wow! just Wow ! :)
I TOTALLY agree with your 1st part, but I don't agree with 'the 70's' part. Hell, Cash, GnR, the Stones... have also sung about the same things, under the influence of similar substances, thru out the years. But, the angst of Linsey, after Stevie was porking Henly+Fleetwood in 76ish, is trully POWERFUL!
@@keythdanielsen8316 And you missed it all
One of the greatest rock songs of all time. Such an outpouring of raw emotion!
Agree
Definitely!!!! This, Zeppelin Stairway, The Who Barba O'Reilly, Kiss Black diamond, and The Eagles In the City!!!!
My God....They killed this song...That energy at that time and place cannot be duplicated.... incredible ending to an incredible song by an incredible band...
Mick Fleetwood's Drumming Reminds Me Of Animal On The Muppet's He Really Gets Into It !!!!
I love how the narrative of their repsective breakups really shows in the dynamics amongst the members of the band and how they interact with each other.

Wow that is some performance. Don’t think I’ve ever heard a piece of rock music being played quite so viscerally as that. That was just RAW!!! Lindsay Buckingham is soo unrated as a genius guitarist . Boy can that man play or what ???? Love it Primitive and barbaric, just wild.
And like most vocalist his voice improved, which I think it was great to begin with!
it's his work as a producer that's underrated.....this song is one of the best...talking about the studio version.

Parlons du guitariste!! c'est quand même très succinct comme jeu de guitare! Il y avait moyen de placer un beau solo sur ce morceau !! Là on a quelques notes qui traînent et une moulinette qui dure, dure, ... Il a pas beaucoup de technique le gars
Buckingham is really bending the strings in this version. How he didn't pop a string is hard to believe!
In top 100 guitarists of all time. That's pretty rated
I'm from Liverpool now 60 , just seen and listened to this for the first time, I've never heard a better song and sound in my life that includes lennon that was pure raw class.
Passionate guitar playing, only a woman can cause you to play that angry
Michael Lively I'm glad I'm not the only one who could feel that!

The song is about her. Lindsay and Stevie were a couple before this. He was just letting it out, we can't expect her to be happy about that.

I agree, so fine 😅❤

WOW Lindsey is on fire!! a totally, absolutely, smoken hot jam! Fleetwood was and still is the all time best, Thank You FLEETWOOD MAC!!
Fleetwood Mac will always be my all time favourites, absolutely love them xx ❤❤
Everyone of them gives everything they've got!! Where has the ART called Music gone?
One of the greatest bands of all time! Sick instrumentals!!

Have a great day 😋
Speak for yourself!!
"past but never over" , very very very well said!
Lindsey, playing through that guitar with his gut.
Wonder how many times they "hate" banged after a show
I really like Lindsey's sound with the Telecaster, sounds really raw.
A Telecaster will bring out someone's raw side.
I like this better with the tele!
I don’t know if it’s just me, but I like his Les Paul Custom sound better. But tele makes it more hard rock which I like.
I think I just blew my head apart! Best closing jam EVER! Ken Skeen
This is Fleetwood Mac as they are. I am a fan of them for 30 years. Heaven.

for me "the chain" is the catalyst of all their "going-ons" ...and i love how you put it !
never mind the instrumental orgy they indulge in from around 3:00
Don Avon Mick Fleetwood denied that he had an affair in those times in the excellent John Peel BBC video on FM. The rest of the video is well worth watching.

Recommend Stevie's biography, too. It would be interesting to compare the two, incident by incident. I suspect they're both discouragingly gracious about it now; I want to read about the blood and guts... not a retrospective love fest. Call me sick.
Note: Mick Fleetwood is banging the entire nearly 7 minutes. Wow
Endurance through the song is one of the hardest things with drumming, hi hats off to him.
Mick Fleetwood is a beast
Jim Mason he probably was bro lol
Drugs
Note: Stevie Nicks' banging the tambourine the entire nearly 7 minutes. Wow
"If loving you isn't the right thing to do, how can I, ever change things that I feel?"

Took it all out in their music -- raw. Most of us wouldn't be able to
I ask forgiveness for some people and pardon for other ones. but, Fleetwood Mac was, if not the best, at least one of the second or third best band this country ever made.

In 1977 the breakup was still raw as hell and hurt bad. This is certainly an intense version of the song, but if you watch the video from the live album in the late 90s when they do this the passion is still there, but both of them ( Lindsay and Stevie ) are working together on the one instead of screaming at each other. Makes the song better in my opinion
He's so high he is flying through the song
Fucking awesome! Lindsey Buckinghams guitar work on Go Your Own Way ranks up there as one of the best. Whenever I hear this song I have to stop what I am doing and stick my head in the speaker. I get pulled in and can't pull away until the song ends. And, he wrote the song and the band recorded at, The Record Plant in Sausalito, California. Just across the bay from San Francisco where Stevie and Lindsey first met and fell in love.
One of the greatest bands ever Long Live Christine rest in peace sister
This is another awesome version of this song that I love. It's my anthem for both my former husbands. :-))) You can go your own way...go you own way...
yeah..
they can kiss my ass cheeks, kiss my ass cheeks....
* i have 2 cheating x's . X 1 , and X 2
2 fools for cheating. ;D~ i dumped em both.
@@1besieged Good for you! They can go their own way!
Sadie.... Both former husbands ??? Whatttt. U seem so young. Girl U sud of been in this band Cas U sure fit in w' the group & all their love boo boos. -ha. 😚
I come here periodically to just hear what PERFECTION sounds like... Never has a band been so in tuned and able to push each other in probably the Greatest performance of one song recorded live... Prince's epic "Purple Rain" show stopper @ the Syracuse Arena in '85 is a very close second...
I just love this band I remember very vividly this album when it came out in 1977! That summer i was going into my Junior year of HS! My buddy and i spent the whole summer jamming to this awesome album!
Me too, I was going into senior year. I remember, every week on the countdown that, Rumours could not still be #1 but, there it was selling 800,000 copies a week all summer long. What a great summer.
Arr, Mick surely is the greatest pirate drummer ever, me matey!
Lindsey, he's a bad man with that Tele. Great early footage. Fantastic !
Wow. What a version. Thanks for the upload
Lindsey and all together in that time - speechless and breathtaking awesome beautiful!!!Hands up,thumb up even so!!
Linsey Buckingham amazing, wow
Gives me chills!
Such a great performance !
What a group, what amazing sounds...as a drummer I really love Mick's feel ~ completely understated in it's simplicity.
At first you wanna say “Lindsey bro, just move on” but then you realize it was the Stevie Nicks who broke up with him and the passion and emotion makes perfect sense…imagine having Stevie Nicks break your ❤️…
I was in 7th or 8th grade when this album came out --still one of my favorites. thank you so much for posting.
i have never heard this so good excellent totally excellent
Love Lindsey and his singing . The whole lot of Fleetwood Mac
It's the guitar and drum play... Insane!!! ...I love it! 😳
srsly the live versions from 77 are so damn intense. the pure emotions... its like you can grab them. i do love the version from the dance aswell, cause thats when they hit their peak in a professional way, but man... 77... there are no words to discribe what timeless art came out of their pain
I made a comment as well about the version from The Dance in 1997 👍
Gutsy performance! Love that his voice is at its limit!
I've always marveled how such an odd-timing song could have become so popular with the Great Unwashed. Magnificent! It snuck through a hole in everyone's defenses!
I never get weary listening to this powerful song and seeing the craft of these guys/gals.Fabulous.
Damn!!! Lindsey Headbanging
STRONG in '77...BEFORE Metal
Broke Big... This band was so
tight back then... I wish I could have seen them live at the height of their powers...
Stevie looks like shes overdosed but still somewhow standing!
Heading north on Panamint Valley Road, just past the Ballarat turnoff, is an 8 mile long straightaway. It's pretty flat, but a couple of whoop-de-do's, so don't go real fast. But play this and go fast!
Maybe their best performance and arrangement of this song. A powerful masterpiece.
WOW! 50,000 volts for each member of the group, one of the best versions of this masterpiece.
man do they sound good live here most likely the best live version I have heard of this song.
even after all these years this video screams energy and brilliance!! wow!
Damn look at Mick and the beautiful Stevie
unstinkingbelievable ---what a driving version of this song, best version ever!!!!
fantastic timeless unrepeatable music
The sonic significance of McVie's bass playing in this song shouldn't be overlooked...
This is the earliest live version of this song that I have found on YT with real footage. GREAT.
I think around this time she was dating Don Henley and he had started dating somebody else and she was really hurt about it. She sings about it on one of the songs on Tusk I think I forgot the name of the song. She still loved him but knew it wouldn't work and she still wanted him and didnt want him to be with anybody else so she was very hurt and you can see it here.
Love this...This video is evidence of WHO this band was in their prime. Love the passion.
emotion,,, and there are 32 from another planet or something giving the thumbs down.
I view this as probably the sadest song by Fleetwood Mac. Had to be hard for Stevie Nicks to perform this.
!Que hermosa época , inolvidables finales de los 70' y ll que vino despues mas intenso aún,y Fleetwood Mac abanderado de los 80'.
Ahoj,tato kapela vstoupila navždy do dějin rockové muziky.Jeji projev včetně nádherného vokálu a fenomenálního kytaristy to byl jeden z vrcholů muziky🍀
FAVOURITE LIVE PERFORMANCE OF THEIRS. That rhythm when they get going is amazing. Could listen for hours.
i had 2 babysitters as an 8 year old in 1977, my neighbor barbara and my cousin julie ann and the one thing they had in common is that they both brought the fleetwood mac rumors album to jam on our turntable. i learned at a young age just how great this music was
my god .. that ending... pure euphoria.
a nostargic moment in 1977. It was the first time I listened this song and I will listen.
OMG! They are all amazing!!
Kids, you see there was once a time long ago when bands sang and played their music in the most inspirational way humans can do this... and it was exhilarating!!!
saw them at this time and can honestly say they were certainly at the top of their game
Some seriously good guitar work on this brilliant version!
Wow. Ripper version!! Nothing held back.
paul bevan Obviously you weren't paying attention to Stevie Nicks. lol She wasn't into this at all
Mic Fleetwood on the drums killing it , looks crazy cool.
Ok I'll come out and say it. Best band the US ever produced.
Thank you for sharing this marteeen0 ....Amazing Concert footage!
This song had 4 distinct rhythm's, one after the other in it's opening, followed by John's Bass, 1. Lindsey's Electric, 2. A 12 string rhythm, 3.The Vocal, and 4. lastly Mic on drums. Check out the SIXTH member at 2:14- (the only non-Mac addition in the concert). When I saw them in '77 at the Providence Civic Center, I was wondering how they would add the 12 string, ans: he was mostly hidden in shadow. GREAT Group, and days missed!
