BBC aired this 60 minute thingy on Sunday - no doubt some of you have already seen it via the interweb at least.





Decent documentary, if unfortunately a bit too Rumours-centric again. Should've been 90 minutes at least to provide a fuller picture.

Best bits were Mick and John doing their comedy double act at the end. And the Reynolds Girls. Dancin
I really enjoyed it but you would never know that there was a number 1 album called 'Behind the mask' from these documentaries.

Stevie spoke brilliantly as usual. But she's so serious and intense. She never smiles and there seems to be a complete absence of joy in her recollections.
stayed up late to watch this and had a headache the next morning. No idea I was still such a fan Wink Loved it. Even though all the old clips are the same stuff you see in every documentary.. Comedy double act in the end was nice yeah, especially John Laughing
Thought Stevie came across the most likeable.. the most down to earth of them all. Who'd've thought. Oh, and she looks great.
Watched it when it was aired and i liked it too. Stevie made me laugh when she told about the "ok, take two" recording of Tusk Laughing She should make more jokes instead of being so dead serious all the time. I also got the feeling that she is still pissed at Lindsey (and probably always will be ..) and that's just sad imo. She should be over it by now and if not, she should look for a good shrink. That remark about Lindsey having been to her house only once and she never having been to his sounded so sad. Maybe it's the shipper in me, dying a little more each time i hear such things Confused2
But all in all a nice documentary, and the footage of Rhiannon was of the best picture quality i've seen sofar. Someone somewhere must have those original film tapes. Just wish they would put it out on dvd for the fans.
Does anyone know if the entire thing is available to watch via the web? If not, did anyone by chance record it and have the capability of burning me a copy?

That's what I was thinking, Cammie. Somebody make us Yankees a DVD of it, and we'll circulate it!

Looks like Sahara has uploaded half of it to Youtube, with the other half to follow: http://www.youtube.com/user/FMSahara#p/u
I recorded it and am able to burn it onto a dvd. I can mail it to someone over in the States if one of you PM's me their adress.
What a nice program!

But I didn't believe a word that NME writer had to say. There was no sincerity there. He's a bogus commentator. He didn't give a damn, I'll warrant, about Fleetwood Mac during those mid-period years. But he pretends to have cared for this program. I'd like to track down old issues of NME to see exactly what he said about Fleetwood Mac (if anything) from 1977 to 1980.

That lying bastard.

I'm getting sick of Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham, too. The mucus in the throat & the black leather jacket, most of all. But I liked the Chris McVie comments made in 1988.

John & Mick at the balcony at the end . . . such warmth, such poignance, such jocularity, such . . . connection!

Wasn't Stevie Nicks was on the cover of NME in the mid 70s?

Chris Salewicz wrote for NME between 1974-1981. There's an article somewhere on the web of him writing nice words about King Crimson in 1973. I can buy it that he may have written nice words about the Mac before punk, and before the retconning that took place much later. Laughing

FM were on the cover of NME on 31st July 1976. Wouldn't have happened a year later, I bet.
Suzy has been nice enough to make me(and someone else) a copy of this, on DVD. When it gets here, I'll mail three copies, to the first three of you, that PM me. Hopefully, the three of you have DVD copying capabilities, so it can continue to spread! Drool

You're right.

Stevie was on the cover of Sounds around the same time I think.

Suzy is being really sweet and sending me a copy of the documentary as well. I'd be happy to spread the love. If Dave and I each burn and send copies to three people and those people pass it on, it should circulate nicely. If anyone is interested, let me know.
Hey Cammie! Have you got yours yet? AND, are you having any luck copying it? I FINALLY got it to copy(I think, I'm watching the copy now, making sure that it's okay), after several failed attempts(my regular copy program[DVD Shrink] kept detecting bad files.....my backup - DVD Decryptor finally got it, even though it found bad files, too). But I think I've got it!
