When Fleetwood Mac released its first live album in December 1980, it captured the legendary band's most iconic lineup on stage demonstrating the full scope of their collective, creative powers. Recorded mostly during the world tour for TUSK, FLEETWOOD MAC LIVE delivered a double-album's worth of exhilarating performances that included massive hits like "Dreams" and "Go Your Own Way," "Rhiannon," and "Don't Stop."
The original album, produced by the band with Ken Caillat and Richard Dashut, was culled primarily from the 1979-1980 Tusk tour but with a few additions from the 1977 tour supporting Rumours. It was a truly international affair, with songs recorded in cities including Tokyo, Paris, London, Nashville, Kansas City, Tucson, Cleveland, Santa Monica, St. Louis, and Oklahoma City. The band dug back to the Peter Green days for "Oh Well" but mostly celebrated their recent triumphs such as "Say You Love Me," "Dreams," "Monday Morning," "Sara," "Landslide," "Over My Head," "Rhiannon," and "Don't Stop." One rarity was "Don't Let Me Down Again" from Buckingham Nicks, as captured in Passaic, New Jersey in 1975. Three new songs premiered on Live, too: Christine McVie's "One More Night," Stevie Nicks' "Fireflies," and a "backstage" rendition of Brian Wilson and Mike Love's Beach Boys oldie "Farmer's Daughter" with rich Mac harmonies. Both "Fireflies" and "Farmer's Daughter" were issued as singles, with the former peaking at No. 60 on the Hot 100. The album itself reached No. 14 on the Billboard 200 and No. 31 on the U.K. Albums Chart.
