Fleetwood Mac – Before The Beginning: Live 1968-1970 (3-CD)
Product Details
Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac is often reduced to a footnote in the band's later pop success, but in 1968 and 1969 they were among the most electrifying blues acts on the planet, with Green widely regarded by peers, including B.B. King, as one of the finest guitarists alive. These newly surfaced tapes capture that raw, road-hardened unit at opposite ends of its arc, offering a rare window into what was lost when Green's departure quietly ended one of British blues' greatest chapters.
Live recordings from 1968 and 1970 have recently been discovered of Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac. Not much is known about the live recordings. Discovered unlabelled and by pure luck in the US, their era has been authenticated by experts of the bands blues origins. Fleetwood Mac has given their full approval for the release of these tapes. Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac had a short but hugely prolific career, with the 1968 recording being at the early stages of the band, and the 1970 recording will, in contrast, be one of their final shows before Peter left the band. The recordings were discovered in incredibly good condition considering they have been untouched for over 40 years, they have been restored and provide a vital insight into the very earliest incarnation of one of the world’s biggest bands.
