Fleetwood Mac's The Chain LIVE and raw is tangible (Reaction!)

[@michaelmendershausen3618]

It's "raw and tangible" because they had broken off their relationship in 1976 during the recording of "Rumours" so the emotion was real.

[@judylee9022]

If you think this banger is raw and powerful gotta listen to "silver springs" from this 1997 the dance tour, Stevie not only writing about her ex but making him perform it as well, Stevie giving it to him! with those eyes glaring right at him and seemingly yelling those powerful lyrics right at him!!!

[@1953jazzman]

When you first started this it sounded like your playback speed was a little too fast, but when you stopped and went back to the beginning it felt right.

[@candacemay7187]

I like how he just pretended that he didn't just fuck up and went back restarted it!

[@Salmacis99]

This performance shows just how great they were. So emotional, so locked in, so GOOD. That's why they're legends!

[@brightsprite62]

Group I grew up with. Love them as much now as I did then.

[@lisazaccardimeunier8378]

“Big Love”, just Lindsay and his guitar. So good!

[@Earman54music]

Lindsey is a much under rated guitarist and songwriter. His style of fingerpicking blows my mind to this day. And you are correct, the tension and chemistry between him and Stevie in this performance is palpapble.

[@janflewelling6277]

Impossible to choose a favorite Fleetwood Mac song, but this is definitely in the top 5. This performance showed off all of their strengths from writing to playing to singing. From this same concert, look for Silver Springs. THAT's the ultimate breakup revenge song on full public display.

[@LoisChisholm]

I have been a fan of Fleetwood Mac since 1969 when they came out with a song called "Oh Well." It's a short kickass song worth checking out, but it is a very different band. ❤❤❤

[@theritchie2173]

Were you watching something on 1.5x speed and forgot to switch it back? Also, I know everybody always does this but the Live '82 version is one of the greatest videos on youtube - you can actually feel the sparks flying between the band members.

[@richardsmith5477]

Saw them live during the Tusk tour. What I think sets them apart is. They sound just as good live as they do recorded. Just my opinion~~~~

[@kevindowney7794]

Thus whole show is worth checking out. Especially 'Silver Springs' and 'Don't Stop'.

[@macfloyd123]

Lindsey's guitar is Rick Turner Model 1. It was made specifically for him as he wasn't happy with how his 1959 Fender Strat sounded

[@Renee-Suzanne]

There is nothing NOT to love about Fleetwood Mac! When I started collecting vinyl a few years ago, this is the first album I bought. LOVE IT! It is by far their best album! Thanks for sharing your reaction to "The Chain" and for your personal insights.

[@richarddevine205]

I've been digging Fleetwood Mac since the Peter Green days. Their progression over the years was fantastic

[@jesselobo3213]

Fleetwood Mac, just another fantastic band from a fantastic era of music.

[@dougca7086]

You need to react to Rhiannon live

[@CountryMozart]

Wait until you learn about "Never Going Back Again". Possibly the greatest finger picking song ever.

[@sherydenslament]

Absolutely!

[@tammyharper4152]

I sing Landslide to my three kids who are now adults/ I seen FleetWood Mac in concert hands down best concert ever

[@stevenschmitzer299]

Good Morning! Thank you for the video, so soothing with a great cup of coffee.

[@dirish709]

I believe "The Chain" was referring to the band. Regardless of their relationship issues the Band would never break.

[@bubuwawa]

Sebs, it's also worth listening to the studio version of the song, which is friggin' amazing! I agree that you should react to "Silver Springs" live version. The intensity of the interplay between Stevie and Lindsey is powerful.

[@candacemay7187]

"Silver Springs" LIVE is a must!

[@macfloyd123]

Check out the live version from the mirage tour 82 it's up there with on of the best live version's of this song. You can see lindsey basically singing but shouting and screaming back and forth with stevie on stage. Just pure magic.

[@jaydawg0321]

EVERYTHING from this performance is Amazing!! you’ve also gotta react to NEVER GOING BACK AGAIN ideally a live performance. Lindsey’s guitar work will blow you away

[@stephencollins5706]

You asked what is happening ? The answer is very simple you are learning about where 'your' generation of music came from and finding that music is made by people who have an artistic streak along with the patience to spend hours, days, weeks, months and years perfecting the words,playing musical instruments (lots of the artists are very competent playing many). No sampling, auto tune, backing tracks playing live, looped drums all pieces together by technology to make it sound perfect. ( IMHO soul less). The next step back is Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Chuck Berry to name but a few.

[@sillililli01]

So very true.

[@MCMNasty2]

The original demo of The Chain by Stevie was amazing.

[@ordiekelleher2641]

Stevie was so good. Hugs to you. 60 today😢

[@Gashouse69]

Fleetwood Mac are easily top 10 bands of all time. So much talent in 1 group!

[@marcieharreld286]

That's a custom made guitar to Lindsey's specifications!!! Beautiful piece of work!!🎵🎼🎶🎸🎸🎸🥁🥁🥁🎹🎹🔥🤘🤘🤘

[@stanshearer7343]

The drummer is Mick Fleetwood. Great entertainer!

[@loveloochay]

🔥 Top shelf Sebs .. nice. You need to listen to the live version of "Big Love" .... the guitar will leave you bewildered. 🎶🎶🎶😵‍💫🎶🎶🎶

[@Treasacello]

2:19 That's why I love Fleetwood Mac The harmonies are outstanding.

[@ordiekelleher2641]

You know they all were married. Then they weren't. The music from it is stunning!😊

[@kathrinepearson7528]

This was filmed WAYYYY after the initial recording which was much closer to when it happened.

[@cvshasta]

Hope you will check out the original Fleetwood Mack group led by Peter Green. Songs like Oh Well, Rattlesnake Shake, Albatross. Only Mick Fleetwood (drummer) and John McVie (bass) remain.

[@MCMNasty2]

Also, 1982 Mirage your version of The Chain will change your life.

[@ptaylor4757]

This music comes from actual musicians playing musical instruments and the sound of the human voice expressing emotion and artistry. This is NOT the sound of computer generated and synthesized sounds and auto-tuned noise. There is no comparison.

[@tomhawk8330]

Rawest version is the 1976 (?) Japan concert.

[@norman1274]

If you are into electric Guitar, watch the video „Roy Buchanan-hey joe, live in Texas“. He was also known as the Tele sorcerer. Have a good time 😁

[@gavinparry5426]

6.40 onwards F1 adopted this music

[@markalumbaugh2756]

GUITAR is a Rick Turner Model 1. Nothing else sounds quite like it.

[@BethReed62]

That whole concert is 🔥🔥🔥 Donyou have it sped up? Sounds weird.

[@Free-flyBE]

The live 1982 video is way more powerful; but The Dance is all class

[@rayk6761]

It's not the guitar, it's the player.

[@billclarke117]

Check out Silver Springs from this same show. It's even more intense than this.

[@26shedan]

react to Silver Springs live--now that is some tension.

[@TexasMagnolia]

Silver Springs is more powerful

[@steve-qe1sv]

With out a doubt!

[@sherydenslament]

I was about to post that. So powerful!

[@recabitejehonadab2654]

You should react to the song Rhiannon the live Midnight Special version.

[@emarjamaa2276]

As good as this is and I do love it, you don’t get the impact of that bass line in this version. The studio version is worth a listen to hear that part alone.

[@terri8988]

If you want a good vibe with the chicks landslide

[@Gboz90]

This is sped up for some weird reason

[@lleldridge1]

Not sure what is happening but the audio and video seem out of sync.

[@johnhenry1860]

you have to listen to fleetwood mac that your brother would listen to not your sister look up peter green

[@wendyzeller3908]

Agree that this is a great song but it’s NOT the best Nicks Buckingham breakup song. Watch the live video of Silver Springs and don’t take your eyes off Stevie Nicks. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3XammBuo5VoatUsi=6_1k1wgUQYGgTAzP Her prediction I. The song came true. She went on to a have a phenomenal solo career and you literally couldn’t get away from her sound all over the radio.
