Do you like a good mystery, Fleetwood Mac fans? Recently found in the U.S., these live recordings HAVE been authenticated as early Fleetwood Mac, but they're not labeled so not much is known about them. Fleetwood Mac DID approve this release, though, and you’ll be glad, as these are precious unheard live documents of the bluesy beginnings of these future rock giants. If you get the triple-vinyl edition ("Before the Beginning Vol. 1—Live 1968") you’ll hear Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac in their formative years: "Madison Blues," "Worried Dream," "Dust My Blues," "Got to Move," "Lazy Poker Blues," "Stop Messing ’Round," "Long Tall Sally," "Shake Your Money Maker" and more. The 3 CDs start with those and then move to Green’s last days with the band as we hear "Homework," "Underway," "Rattlesnake Shake," "My Baby’s Gone," "I Can’t Hold Out," "Madison Blues," "Only You," "The Green Manalishi," "Albatross" and more. A chest full of Fleetwood Mac treasures—19 in the vinyl set, 41 on the CDs! Sony International.
