 entertaining but could have been better | |
| If the archival video footage of the songs had been shown in their entirety, I would rate this DVD a 10+. That stuff is out there, these clips are teasers. In fact, I own some old FM concert VHS tapes which I purchased when new (Tusk documentary, Mirage tour, etc). I look at the vaults on The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac cd and wonder why not DVD? Frustrating, they would look and sound great. Still, I never saw the Rumours photo session footage which is included on this DVD and that was an unexpected treat even if it was too short. I knew at the time of Rumours release that there was a lot of turmoil going on in the band but had no idea to what extent until I watched these interviews. All's well now apparently since they have a new cd due out in April. I sure will miss Christine, though. I recommend this DVD to any old diehard Fleetwood Mac fans who crave anything from those good old days and also to the new ones so that you can learn about their history. | |
 Worth Every Penny! | |
| I've read several reviews of this DVD and have some advice. Learn how to operate your DVD player! I've heard people say they were expecting a documentary,and people expecting the Rumours album uninterrupted. This DVD contains both and is an excellent investment for any Fleetwood Mac or music fan in general. For Fleetwood Mac fans, the opportunity to hear Go Your Own Way, followed by Silver Springs is priceless and the way that these songs were meant to be heard--point/counterpoint. For those of us out there who have been listening to this album since 1977, you will be astounded by the harmonies, the instrumentals, and vocals that have never been heard before, even on the highest quality CD. For the general music fan, Fleetwood Mac fan or not, this DVD is pure musical craftsmanship! The sound quality, vocals, etc. are top notch and can be enjoyed by anyone with a love and/or knowledge of music that stands the test of time. The music on Rumours is not dated in any way. The theme of love lost, covered in Dreams, Go Your Own Way, and Silver Springs, to name a few, along side the theme of love found, covered by You Make Loving Fun, Don't Stop, and Songbird are as timely today as they were in 1977. In other words, something for everyone, and a cut above the rest. | |
 Nothing But Rumours | |
| Well what more can be said here than has ! But I must say I would rather listen to the old Fleetwood Mac. Lets face it, all the Fleetwood of later is nothing but more rumours. They all have the same things in common each and every record! Sappy, mysical fakeness, single drum beats as if your hearts going to pop from your chest. On and on Fleetwood Mac goes, when they stop nobody knows! I do know when they should stop! NOW! There is one track I heard the other day and yes I don't know the name of it... "Thank God", but it will be easy to find out. They repeated the line over 100 times! Name that tune! I must admit they did write some great songs, but I don't like hearing other peoples problems on record and I don't see how their music will get someone who is on valuim through the day! Don't Stop about thinking of tomorrow! Trust me I won't. If you want to hear a woman sing, listen to Blackmore's Night, and she don't do coke, Candence Night this woman can sing! And speaking of a great guitar player... Mr Blackmore knows the world and styles of mystical treatments! Guess what? The the Worlds still turning! | |
