This is UNREAL...
We've seen older footage like this before but not without a time counter watermark. I see these videos originated at the Paste.com website. In any case... Great stuff!

Isn't Stevie amazing?! And simply drop dead gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteTruly Spot On!!
ReplyDeleteThese tracks made up one of the earliest bootlegs from the first tour.
ReplyDeleteIt was easy to find in records stores in NYC at the time.
So nice to have some video - thanks for posting!
This is so awesome,Thank you
ReplyDeleteWow. I miss that Rhiannon ending. I know she can't pull it off anymore, but...Wow.
ReplyDeletelovely Stevie!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is GREAT!!! Great band, gorgeous Stevie and stellar Lindsey!!!!!
ReplyDeletePersonally I'm mesmerized by SPARE ME A LITTLE - another one of those amazing Christine McVie gems that would have been a chart hit had it been recorded with Stevie and Lindsey.
ReplyDeleteI want to remind FM fans of something - although Stevie was never a playing member of FM, she had a much more important role in the band than some people realize, because she arranged a lot of the vocal harmonies. She is FM's singing harmony genius.
This video of SPARE ME shows you how Stevie beefed up this song with a punchy vocal harmony that stands out - and rouses Christine out of her torpor!!!
I never knew Stevie's top hat was around in 75, thought she started wearing it in 76. She said once that she was in a vintage store in Buffalo with Christine when she found the first one.
ReplyDeleteThese clips are wonderful, the only 75 ones that have been around previously were from their Largo show, outside of Washington DC earlier on the 75 tour.
Christine is such a musician.....The British contingent stand out to me. Stevie and Lindsey were indeed fortunate to be in a band that good.....and as though it were meant to be, meld so well.
ReplyDeleteAnd check out the ending of "Spare Me A Little" you can see Stevie is wearing a skirt and the first version of her platform boots. I also never knew she did this until 76 in black. But she obviously was already working on her famous look even this first year on tour. By the next year she had switched to black clothes, lengthened the bat wing sleeves and made her skirt a handkerchief hemline.
