Fleetwood Mac - Gold Dust Woman | REACTION 

There are no bad songs of Rumors, it's worth a full album listen!

"The Chain" is the Fleetwood Mac song that builds and has the mother of all pay offs! IMO it is the best track they ever composed/recorded. No one is going to object to you reacting to another Mac track.

Lindsey is a guitar players guitarist ..He can rip it up and be subtle as hell, and in this song his haunting phrases are killer..He can stand up to any guitarist

Since you mentioned Christine, you need to do one of her songs. "Songbird" is a masterpiece.

I saw Stevie Nicks show in Charlotte NC last October 🔥 It was pure fire even at age 74! She stills rocks it. When she did this song the place went crazy! Everyone was singing word for word all together with her ❤ It was pure magic 🎤

The underappreciated John McVie on bass. We are not worthy.

One of my favorite verses ever: *Well did she make you cry* *Make you break down* *Shatter your illusions of love* *Is it over now* *Do you know how* *To pick up the pieces and go home*

Christine sang two of the hits off of Rumours, “You Make Lovin’ Fun” and “Songbird”. Both are great tunes

This song live is a whole different animal. Definitely a must live.

I recommend that you listen to The Chain next…it’s the most powerful track on this album, and I have loved this album since it was released (46 years ago last week)

The live version of this is ten times this amazing, at the end Stevie goes ham. It is unbeatable.

One of THE BEST "closers" of ANY album in rock history....

I love Lindsey and his solo work. I think he is underrated because his style and sound is so much different than the speed demons. He's also very talented doing the writing and mixing.

Stevie built her career on our presumption of her as that dark mysterious white witch, which she says she's not, but she has played right into it.... black lace, her jewelry it's paints a mysterious picture

Lindsey has an incredible style.

The bass riff from The Chain is was got my then 14 year old son to self teach himself to learn the bass. At 21 he can play very well and the electric and acoustic of both bass and electric. What a way to make your Gen X mother proud.❤

The opening line tells you everything… Rock on Gold, dust woman take your silver spoon and dig your grave. It’s all about drug addiction, and it is such a spooky, eerie, trancelike mood created, and maybe that is to mirror the trance-like mood addicted people feel.

I was 17 when this album first came out in '77...it was in everybody's collection, LP, for the bedroom, and cassette for the car...the whole album is great. Rock ON!

Possibly my favorite Fleetwood Mac song.

Lindsey is totally under rated!

I second "The Chain". Just mind-blowing.

Thank you Christine for so much beautiful music. You touched so so many

you need to do "Songbird" to really honor Christine McVie.

Lindsey is incredible with the guitar. If you wish to experience his talent, he did a solo concert where he played and sang the song “Big Love”. You will be amazed.

In the chorus harmonies, you can hear all three voices distinctly. Nicks, Buckingham and McVie.

This album sold over 40 million copies. It's timeless. A masterpiece...

Stevie is my favorite female vocalist

Classic Stevie tune that has a depressingly realistic look at drug troubles .

Lindsey is responsible for the mood in this song with the layered guitar and the howling at the end.

He is in my top five guitarist, Amen

Haunting sound. I still love Stevie.

This is my favorite song from Fleetwood Mac.

Me, smiling, LOVING 🥰 this song and remembering when I was 18 years old in the US Navy stationed in Norfolk, VA. God I miss this era of *great* classic hits.

True. I listened to it all last week. Every song is excellent. Love 'world turnin'

I always loved this song

You will see the most passion in all FM songs in their live concert videos. Especially watching Stevie perform live in the 70s. She rocked! The entire Rumors album was about the interpersonal relationships and break-ups of the band members, especially Stevie & Lindsey's personal relationship, but they still stayed together for the music.

Silver Springs (Live from The Dance -1997) is a great one to check out from the Mac. One of their best and most intense performances

Rumours was an instant commercial success, selling over 10 million copies worldwide within just a month of its release. It garnered widespread acclaim from critics, with praise centred on its production quality and harmonies, which frequently relied on the interplay among three vocalists and has inspired the work of musical acts in different genres. It won Album of the Year at the 1977 Grammy Awards. It has sold over 40 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time. It has received Diamond certifications in several countries, including the UK, Canada, and Australia, and has been certified 20× Platinum in the US.

They do a song called Hypnotized. You will love it. ❤

This song live is pure 🔥

Still one of the greatest selling albums of all time .....!! Pushing 50 years since it's release ............

Love Stevie Nicks.. this song was on her Bella Donna album, listened to it a lot while I was at sea in the Navy back in 1984 and 1985!!

"The Chain"!!! Is a must !!!!!

You HAVE to hear "I'm so afraid". Make sure it's live in Boston!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It'll tear you up!!!!!!!

DO.. SECOND HAND NEWS! Every single song on this album is fantastic. Every one

Lindsay Buckingham is one of the most under rated guitarists and Mick Fleetwood in one of the most under rated drummers of all time.

I love that you compared the guitar to a voice ... excellent analogy!

One of Christine's song I like very much is "You Make Loving Fun" - it's a cute, summery song with a nice warm beat. Give it a listen!

This song is a vibe. Definitely a journey ❤

It's like a sound lasagna. SO much going on! One of my favorites.

It is about the totality of their ability to do just about any style and nail it I think, more so than the song itself.

A classic. Given the layers of bullshit which were revealing themselves during the recording of this project, it's amazing that it was ever finished. Lucky for us.

The Chain is a next must listen. It’s in my top 3 Fleetwood Mac songs and there are dozens of great ones.

It's a very ethereal and expressive song. I love the way you guys give context to songs by adding information relating to songs. I haven't heard all of this album but I've heard so much about it. Fleetwood Mac are a phenomenal band and every song I've heard of theirs I've loved it.

Great 80s juke box music. Head to your favorite watering hole after work, drop anchor and chill to some Mac. So many good hits from that album.

John McVie. One of the most underrated bassists ever! Great reaction guys. You are my favorites. You guys actually have brains.

For me it's one of thier lower tier songs(gold dust woman).Early Fleerwood Mac did a song called "Hypnotized". Its ethereal.

I have loved this woman's voice since 1977 and that was listening on 8 track in my Pops 1976 Sedan DeVille. she's amazing 🥰

i once was in Reno, Nevada at the Reno Hilton (now it's the Grand Sierra Resort), and they had an outdoor ampitheatre and from out hotel window we could see and hear Stevie Nicks rehearing this song. We also were there for that concert of course. It was cool to see the entire rehearsal. It was amazing! Great reactions!

amazing how clear the sound is on Rumors' songs

Lindsey is amazing, and anybody who knows anything about guitar knows that! Rock on, guys!

I like the song, it's melodic, you can hear different instruments in it that fit perfectly, you can read a book and listen to this song, you can go in a car and listen to this song, but anywhere, from me 5+.

Foo Fighters did this song with Stevie Nicks. You want to talk fire….. OMG it takes the song to a whole new level

Fleetwood Mac are a British-American rock band, formed in London in 1967. Fleetwood Mac were founded by guitarists and vocalists Peter Green and Jeremy Spencer, and drummer Mick Fleetwood. Bob Brunning was hired as a temporary bass guitarist before John McVie joined the line-up in time for their eponymous debut album. Danny Kirwan joined as a third guitarist and vocalist in 1968. Keyboardist and vocalist Christine Perfect, who contributed as a session musician from the second album onwards, married McVie and joined in 1970, becoming known as Christine McVie. Primarily a British blues band at first, Fleetwood Mac achieved a UK number one with "Albatross",[6] and had other hits such as the singles "Oh Well", "Man of the World", and "The Green Manalishi". Green, Spencer and Kirwan all left in succession during the early 1970s, replaced by guitarist and vocalist Bob Welch, guitarist Bob Weston and vocalist Dave Walker. By 1974, Welch, Weston and Walker had all either departed or been dismissed, leaving the band without a male vocalist or a guitarist. In late 1974, while Fleetwood was scouting studios in Los Angeles, he heard the American folk-rock duo Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. He asked Buckingham to be their new guitarist and vocalist with Buckingham agreeing on the condition that Nicks could also join as vocalist.

Great choice! Fleetwood Mac is excellent in concert and was on fire in the 70's. They'll always be tops. The Rumors album is fire!

Research what the band was going through while making this album. Gives all of these songs A LOT more meaning.

"Sisters of the Moon" by Fleetwood Mac. Live version. Mirage tour. It is on RU-vid.

Stevie can turn anybody’s music into magic. Give a listen to Gold by John Stewart and Stevie Nicks.

EVERY song is a masterpiece!!! I’m not even exaggerating!

Every song on the album was a hit

Yes this is one of those songs the more you listen to it the more you like it…it’ll grow on you for sure!

My girlfriend at the time and I seen them play August 1st 1977 , Kansas city MO. Kemper arena. They played songs from one of the best albums ever produced. Rumors. They were fantastic live

OMG One of my favorites! ❤️💯

You guys are right...Lindsey is an amazing and underated guitarist. You guys should check out the live version of this with Bob Welch.

This song will only grow on you the more you listen. It is a very, moody atmospheric song, but I think that is what I love about it. It's different, unique and U appreciate the skill demonstrated in their writing and musicianship. The mastery with which they create the atmosphere and then slowly build up the intensity to a late climax. At least that is how I feel about it. Anyway, another great reaction. Great take on the curse, reflected by the howls and moans of Lindsey, the male figure, opposite Stevie's witchery.

I’ve always loved this song… so spooky

Probably one of the greatest unspoken compliments I have seen for a musician is that it took hiring TWO guitarists to replace Lindsey Buckingham the first time he left the band.

Every, EVERY song on Rumours is amazing...which is mind-boggling considering the amount of turmoil (and cocaine) the band was dealing with during the making of this album. "Songbird" is one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs, and on this album, though I like everything they do. But "Songbird" really spotlights Christine McVie...so simple, so beautiful.

The Chain is my all time favorite from Big Mac. Smokin’ hot banger!

Guitars want Lindsey Buckingham for Christmas. Great assessment on a phenomenal guitarist. So cool to see guys react to a song that I've been listening to for literally decades.

my fave from them!

Gotta do Landslide too. Awesome. Also Christine on Songbird is a must

Yes! Every song in this album is a hit!

Finally someone recognizes Lindsay Buckinghams' greatness!?

This is another one like "Rhiannon" where she really takes off with the last section on the live version. "Sisters of the Moon" is that song from the next album "Tusk", where she gets possessed at the end of the song when they do it live. If you want to really see Lindsey go off on guitar, watch a live performance of "I'm So Afraid", from the 2014 tour. I don't think there is a PRO shot, but there are plenty of audience videos that are of good enough quality to enjoy it.

Studio albums Fleetwood Mac (1968, also known as Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac) Mr. Wonderful (1968) Then Play On (1969) Kiln House (1970) Future Games (1971) Bare Trees (1972) Penguin (1973) Mystery to Me (1973) Heroes Are Hard to Find (1974) Fleetwood Mac (1975, also known as "The White Album") Rumours (1977) Tusk (1979) Mirage (1982) Tango in the Night (1987) Behind the Mask (1990) Time (1995) Say You Will (2003)

Back in those days, people either wore or carried a tiny silver spoon for snorting a particular powdery substance. Nicks sings, "Take your silver spoon, dig your grave." Of course, being born with a sliver spoon means something completely different but it's safe to assume which one she's referring to. Sidenote: That howling during the fade out is all Lindsey's crazy ass.

The Rumours album is justifiably legendary. The Chain though proves/exemplifies Lindsey Buckingham's guitar greatness and highlights the group's amazing harmonies. The Chain is the gem of gems, a phenomenal song, but almost anything off the Rumours LP is can't miss. You've already reacted to Dreams and Go Your Own Way so you also need to hit Don't Stop and You Make Loving Fun, the other massive hits off the LP. That said, I'm really looking forward to your reacting to The Chain.

Buckingham has a unique tone and brilliant fills that fit perfectly with his band.

Funny that this is actually my favorite Fleetwood Mac song off any album. I absolutely love the atmosphere of it all all the various guitar parts. I believe that is Buckingham howling at the end. If I had a good enough band, I'd cover this live.

Linsey is a very good, melodic guitar playing. Rather that shredding a bunch of technical runs, he serves the song. I have him on my top ten list for guitarists, right up there with Mike Campbell from Tom Petty's heatbreakers.

Love this song. Thanks for reacting to it.

Who didn’t have this album 😊 loved Fleetwood Mac 💙🙏🏻🇬🇧xx p.s every album they made & every song they produced was instant love 🙏🏻

Lindsey one of the finest guitar players out there,🎶

They are awesome live. You should check out their live performances

The thing with Buckingham...like Mark Knopfler (from Dire Straits)...they're "finger pickers". A "Bluegrass-style" of playing. You get a very different effect than from using a pick. Those two are both EXTREMELY under-rated in terms of technical ability and chops.

'Rumours' is so iconic that like half of the album got radio play. Even the non-singles like "The Chain" became chart toppers in some countries. It's a masterpiece. Christine McVie recently passed, RIP. Her songs were some of the band's best.

Also, having been lucky enough to see Fleetwood Mac live, I will tell you the best concert of theirs I ever went to had a 25 minute version of this as the first encore and then the entire band left the stage and it was just Christine sitting at the piano, and she ended the whole thing with songbird all by herself

I, along with a bajillion other people, had the Rumors album back in the 70's, it was a staple of my collection

Guys, researching Mac and the going ons during the making of Rumours is a must. It will all ties together.
