Fleetwood Mac/Lindsey Buckingham ~ Blue Letter ~ Largo live 1975 

It was a definitely interesting time

I can, his voice is not a good singing voice, he is a pretty decent guitarist, but Stevie made Fleetwood Mac reach stardom.

Isn't that a great album?

@@philiponcale1820 Yes!

Jonny Roxx that's amazing. Glad you had that experience.

Jonny, It's funny how the cosmos works. The last few days I was near Nashville with some family to enjoy the eclipse. We found ourselves at a really nice marina bar called The Rudder. The music that afternoon was a trio of men I'd never seen before. During the break, I complimented one of them and chatted about some of their song selections. I asked him if they could play Southern Cross. He smiled and said he didn't know if they knew the words. I would soon find out this was sarcasm as I said I know them and would love to sing it with them. He said okay, but you better go ask the bass player. He wrote it. I froze for a moment. The following minutes were a blur, but I found myself in awe talking with Michael Curtis about the song and some of his moments in music. After we all enjoyed the magical spectacle of totality, the guys re-took the stage. A number of songs into it, Michael called me up and I got to sing his baby with him. I won't bore you with why I fell in love with the song and for how many years it has been one of my very favorites. Michael's wife did tell me afterward she couldn't believe Michael let me up there with him for that, to sing "his baby" the song that "built their house." I'm just glad Stephen Stills heard Seven League Boots once upon a time. Oh, and a credit to the band, Davidson Horn and Curtis!

Thank you for sharing. I can picture it all.

Jeremy McClure wow. The cosmos, eh? 🙂 I will keep this in mind. Peace; rock on

What a great story!! How fun to have this experience and memory.

One of the best. He is my favorite of all guitarists.

Agreed, very underrated in a very overlooked band

*cough* Hendrix *cough*

Yea he damn good!

One of the best in history definitely

Kristen Jett you’re way out of your depth here, Lindsay is one of the all time greats and his body of work proves that

I love Stevie Nicks! 😝

Michele is one hell of a person.

Could not of lived life without there music ringing everyday in my ears !!!! So magnificently greatest of all timesssxx

@@JohnDoe-cf7jr were talking about fleetwood here but okay

Et deux ans après ils ont " explosé " le monde entier avec le " Rumours tour "..sauf la France 😭🤔🤔

They ALL made it what it is, not just him.

Fleetwood Mac, is Mick, Christie Lindsey, Stevie and John all together. Not one or the other. They all in unison create the band for what it is.

@Sam Maloney definitely Peter Green would beg to differ

Peter green....bob welsh????has been great contributing people to this band....thought lindsey would get over himself and join the last tour

@@lauraobrien5686 get over himself? He was let go

SuperDrJeckyl Robbie Krieger, guitarist for The Doors didn't use a pick either.

Mark Knopfler

Toy Caldwell of The Marshall Tucker Band was another great player who didn’t use a pick.

Me too.

Rock bands still exist lol

@@Bliccyriccy03I’m not sure “existing” is enough.

So true, one of the best if not the best fingerstyle rock guitar legend, along with Mark Knopfler.

I know nothing about guitar playing and when a friend of mine found out how much of a FM fan I am, he would tell me over and over how great of a guitar player Lindsey is. I would just smile and nod my head. Then I saw them in concert. I still don't know much, but damn, he's good!!

And singer!

Excellent performance but this song really doesn't fit their style, IMO.

Its actually Silver Spring. Its around the beltway from Largo. Thank you for knowing the inspiration though

Silver Springs Maryland ,

It's "Silver Spring, MD"

true!

Strangely quaint these days, isn’t it?

I love the other John (Paul Jones) more but this one comes right after him

Rick and Mike Curtis (The Curtis Brothers) wrote this song, they all knew each other before Fleetwood Mac.

"Just kinda there"?! I don't know what concert you went to, but Stevie is still the reigning queen of rock and roll. Completely transporting and powerful to this day, she still grabs the audience by the balls and takes them into her fairy kingdom lol

Deb Reynolds: Stevie didn’t want the spotlight????? Um... so why did she always stand centre stage? Why did she gyrate her body and swish scarves etc during instrumentals, instead of standing back and letting the musicians in the band take well-deserved credit? Didn’t want the spotlight???!!! Gimme a break!

I saw them in Dallas on December 14, THEY HAVENT LOST A STEP!

Susie196921 she has long hair here. It’s just pulled back into a very long braid.

Her hair seemed more blonde than brown to me. Sort of a dirty blonde?

Rick and Mike Curtis (The Curtis Brothers) wrote this song, you can hear their version on RU-vid. It rocks!!

Over here in the good old UK, we called them loons if the flare started at the hip. If it started at the knee, they were flares.

Yeah I had to watch carefully I thought he was using a picket first to bring out some of them notes but hell no he was fingering that bad boy all the way on that Les Paul 😱😱

@Kristen Jett ya well remeber we all started somewhere and some people should remeber and respect that,we all fell in love with this duo when they came out with there first album then rumours with fleetwoodmac ,together!!!,forgive is better then ego thrusting lol!!!

@Kristen Jett oh and yes they will ,if the chance comes up ,they will,lifes too short to hestate and stay angry or whaever,they will want to rock again

LOL. She was so cute before her ego kicked in. ;O) GOOD JOB LINDSEY-AWESOME SONG, and great energy in this performance!!

But you'd be even better without the ego.

Because the song became a sprint.

She wasn't a huge star yet

@tinwoods Hello 'tinwoods'. Women frequently take the opportunity to remind ourselves how a more natural look is usually more effective than the _groomed within an inch of her life_ effect. In these Kardashian-troubled times, this type of reflection is important. The time and resources expended in order to look _camera ready_ are too high a price to pay. This reflection is nothing to which you should object. You've perceived a backhanded compliment which wasn't there. With respect, that's your problem - not ours as women.

>>>I liked her better in the natural and free of drugs.>>>> When was that? Are you intoning that ALL of them aren't under the influence of something in this video? Odds are you would be wrong. These were some of their most "altered" years.

I love her all natural look

@@proteusproject1653 , this was 1975. I don't think they were into anything hard until 1978 and it did not really begin to mess them up til 1982. Stevie's bottom was 1987.
