So I've combined the versions from the deluxe version with unreleased versions from bootlegs to create an ideal version of a concert from that night. But luckily, some of the early show and the rest of the late show were played on radio at the time, and there are excellent bootlegs of this. Unfortunately though, the band did two shows that night, and those six songs were only about half of the late show.
Six of them were from Capitol Theatre, in Passaic, New Jersey, on October 17, 1975, and I've included those here. In 2018, a deluxe version of the 1975 album was released, and it included lots of live performances. That means that 1975 concerts are the best opportunity to hear "old" and "new" versions of the band mix together. It's a bit of a shame that the 1974 "Fleetwood Mac" album did so well, and then the 1977 album "Rumours" did much better still, because that meant from 1977 onwards, the band had so many great recent songs to play in concert that they largely discarded anything from before 1975. It's a really interesting mix of pop and blues, and I think Buckingham does well trying to live up to Peter Green's guitar heroics. So you have the rare treat of hearing older songs like "Oh Well," "Station Man," "The Green Manalishi," and "Hypnotized," except sung by new members of the band, usually Buckingham. Thus, this concert has six songs from the years before Buckingham and Nicks joined, and six songs from their 1975 album. they wanted to promote that album with their concerts, but they wanted to draw on their older songs too, so the new version of the band wouldn't alienate long-time fans. The band put out the album simply called "Fleetwood Mac," which started selling slowly but would go on to sell millions. When it comes to concerts by the band, 1975 is my favorite year, because during that year and that year alone, there was a more or less even mix between both versions. Personally, I like both the early blues versions and later pop versions of the band.

Those two, plus Christine McVie, who had been a part of the band since 1970, would propel the band into pop superstar status very quickly. At the start of 1975, the band practically transformed into an entirely different band, because a key singer-songwriter, Bob Welch, left the band, and was replaced by the team of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. If you know much about Fleetwood Mac, you probably knew the band started out as a blues band led by Peter Green, but slowly morphed into a pop rock band without him. “I’m So Afraid” – Early Take Instrumentalġ0.Here's a must-have concert if you're a fan of the "Rumours" era version of Fleetwood Mac.
