  • This made me feel hungry..

    

  • Shubham.chavan70@gmail.com...

  • Nice1

  • i'm watching at  leakedmovies . biz

  • A song that is listened to well at night.

  • Playing this on a beach at sunset...........

  • ever watch Peter Green Oh Well & Albatros Live?

  • This is the best video I have ever seen for this song.....perfecto - gracias - and I watch them all, this is my ALL time favorite song

  • @PurpleMadi1 Thank you very much. It makes me happy to see that some do enjoy not "just" the song but also the pics. :-)

  • @comradekiev Good Point-When most of us watch a cool video on You Tube-we usually make comments about enjoying the song, or on the musicians playing, or on the memories, the song evokes, or brings back-so I'll follow PurpleMadi1's lead, and will also include my feelings about the video, when I'm commenting on videos-but a good majority, just have a "Still Picture", the whole time the music is playing

  • @PurpleMadi1 Exactly.

  • Lovely music. Anybody know where the photos were taken?

  • @Capricorn229 Surely I do, 'cause I've shot them: ;-) The locations were (not in order of appearance: Madeira, Bochum (city in west Germany), Travemünde (north Germany, baltic coast), Denmark (west coast). I don't remember where I've taken the pic of the clouds. I think it was while travelling by car making a rest. :-)

  • @comradekiev just a curiosity. what camera did you used?

  • I thought Sun King was the M & S song, but now I know it's this. :)

  • A beauty

  • This isnt just a song...

  • @ciaran1000 This is better than sex.

  • @ToyMachineSkater91 much better

  • @ciaran1000 agreed. it's an entire existence.

  • just an old time classic! Relax an enjoy..

  • very good song

  • first time in five years i have been able to listen all the way through this classic after it was played at my mothers funeral

  • Makes me think of dreaming in a sad but happy place.

  • This is not just food, this is M&S food.

  • soo soothing :)

  • The song was in the Top Ten in Britain in the early part of 1969. The Beatles had begun recording what would become the Abbey Road LP during the spring and summer of the same year. Harrison stated (regarding his own guitar work) that Sun King's "point of musical departure" was in fact Fleetwood Mac's 'Albatross'. Music feeds off of itself.

  • @nonerudite definitely .. i almost hear the vocals coming in here. Would be a good candidate for a medley

  • Anthology.

  • klf used this heavenly track on their almighty chill out lp

  • Just had this played at my grandads funeral today... I love him so much and will miss him everyday :'(

  • @Mr Jesperbreum .. why would Angels want to make cats bald? ... you and your twisted, drug-induced animal fetishes.

  • May I recommend the book 'A Pop Revolution, the transatlantic music scene 1965 to 1969' by the invisible man. The author is a big fan of this fine instrumental.

  • Acoustic Bliss...

  • I'm fuckin'  flyin' in blue

  • @Alex201Delarge are you high?

  • @ilovepantera97 Everyday

  • I miss getting stoned

  • @sasj84 no need to miss it, its not hard to find

  • I really like the photos you posted with this.

  • Comment removed

  • at least once it was worth while reading the top comment

  • love this version, the only one for me!

  • Super Numeri from ninja made a dopetastic 11 minute version of this classic called Electric Horse Garden

  • I had this on the original album. Most songs on it were awesome raunchy brit blues. This was a wonderful little surprise tacked on to the end, and I love it to this day. Ditto the blues. And ya'll can hate me for saying this, but those ladies trashed what used to be Fleetwood Mac.

  • @lilwolf072557 ,,,,,,i agree 1000%,,,,,i never did like the girly version of fleetwood mac,,,,,,,,,

  • freedom!!

  • May I recommend the book 'A Pop Revolution, the transatlantic music scene 1965 to 1969' by the invisible man. The author is a big fan of this fine instrumental.

  • i dunno where i herd this song and its not m type of music but is beautiful

  • Yeah this instrumental tune is in a category of its own allright..

  • good t o bee high!!!!lol

    lol

  • One of my friends called this a boring song. I nearly hit him.

  • @spider2149 Why "nearly"?

  • @Tapiola2007 he isn't worth the effort.

  • beautiful sound

  • Peter you are the best!

  • The most hauntingly beautiful instrumental of all time BAR NONE!!

    Peter you are a talent beyond words!

  • the lead guitar is amazing on here....

  • greatest instrumental......amazing !!!!!!!!

  • This is really the best of Fleetwood Mac!

  • Cool :)

  • Great instrumental by a great artist!

  • this is not just a great tune...this is a M&S tune 

  • Thanks for a well recorded & uploaded version of Albatross: great landscapes and quite appropriate for the song!

    Ignore the argumentative idiots, they are so far removed from the music they get tangled in their own irrelevant squabbles & nothing much to do with Fleetwood Mac!

  • AMAZING!!!! *_*

  • @Yyyyzyyy I SO AGREE WITH U!!!!!!!

  • @Yyyyzyyy you little prepubescent crettin

  • @Yyyyzyyy ..... i m very surprised...... maybe i ve been a idiot all my life..thanks for your clarividence

  • @Yyyyzyyy how dare you ever to compare fleedwood mac with justin beaver and his trash "music" ???

  • @Yyyyzyyy Who the hell is justin biebel ???

  • @Yyyyzyyy you could be right there er no wait your a fucking troll, have a nice day wanker

  • @Yyyyzyyy your clearly  a moron!!

  • @Yyyyzyyy Obvious troll is obvious.

  • @MrJesperbreum best comment ever.

  • @MrJesperbreum

    What a vulgar and twisted description of such a beautiful song

  • pretty big deal in it's day.

  • @youngbudsmoker88 I'm feeling ya man, got until this weekend! still means we appreciate when we toke!

  • 6 people are deaf

  • i dont like it ......... I LOVE IT

  • reminiscent of the beatles sun king~

  • @27dedrummer Yes it is, as apparently John Lennon was influenced by "Albatross" for "Sun King" and not the other way round. I read this somewhere :) Both are beautiful tracks.

  • @dummytree very cool the more ya know i guess lol

  • @27dedrummer...more than a passing resemblance to King Crimson's "Matte Kudasai" as well.

  • @27dedrummer I do believe this came first though.

  • @27dedrummer John Lennon based Sun King on Albatross: he admired the reverberating sound ...

  • Last call for alcohol....

  • Get on the internet. Download Albatross in FLAC. Stick your headphones on, get out a spliff. And light it.

    This is the recipe. For heaven.

  • Ideale "slow" ..

    hechterman

  • Ideale "slow" ...

  • Went to #1 in Britain but was lost in US. For ever to be one of the greatest instrumentals of all time. Thanks to the pre-coed Fmers. Jeremy Spencer still goes to Blues Fests! Thanx to all!

  • briliant relaxing song when you are stressed out.

  • Another legacy left by a great man.R.I.P. peter....

  • @222jenson ... erm he's not dead.

  • i think if those cymbals wern't there... this wouldn't remind me of the sea what-so-ever... i think it'd remind me of a country western song...

  • what flavour is it ?

  • @InterZlatan8 It's a bloody seabird. It's not any bleeding flavour!

  • LOVE this tune....but really must take issue here!! Lovely as your pictures are mate...this is about the OCEAN....you know?? Massive swell...huge waves....seabirds wheeling overhead???

    ps. Albatross=large oceanic bird=kinda gives it away??

  • @MrAssassinkid17

    Ah ! well a-day ! what evil looks

    Had I from old and young !

    Instead of the cross, the Albatross

    About my neck was hung.

  • @GnR6794 This song inspired that one. Don't worry...no one really gives a shit :P

  • Beautiful pictures. Thank you for posting these.

    Good song too.

  • so smoothe so mellow .  a masterpiece

  • so smoothe so mellow . a masterpiece

  • This is such a lovely piece, soothing but exciting at the same time, simple but really expressive. Probably what really great music is all about. Two people disliked it? Obviously they've never really flown.

  • Ich liebe dieses lied....<3

  • Heavenly. I woke up to this this morning on the radio when my alarm went of. Cant think of a more peacefull and beautiful peice of music to wake up to.

  • When I hear this, I think of flying across the sea on a calm sunny day :)

  • wunderschöne Aufnahmen und die Musik dazu.....sehr schön!!!

  • Great video but how did you get past the copywright police? I have made a video of albatrosses in the southern ocean but when I uploaded the audio was disabled immediately. I have deleted it with a view to looking for another suitable audio track to go with the beautiful soaring birds.

  • the ultimate stoner song!

  • no wonder this is the only instrumental song in history to get to number 1

  • Great beattles song

  • @chrispchicken313

    Crispy chicken, what do you mean? Great beatles song?

    Are you high? No, I almost forgot, you are a silly ass retard.

  • @zaldivarjohn I believe Yes's song Cinema won some awards back in 1984 .

  • Peter Green is a total badass!! completely underated by most!

  • Peter cancelled tour because tricked on tour by his greedy solicitor!His fingertips are hurting and fingernails falling off!That is why Mike takes him to polish his nails!Dont ask for Peter on tour!They stressed him too much!He is not choosing songs for gigs!Ask Peter.Solicitor and all greedy people are cause of Peters bad health!Peter is not allowed to live the life he wants! Hope all greedy who are slowly killing Peter can live with them selfs!Free Greeny!

  • Marks and Spencers advert lmao

  • Marks and Spencers advert lmao

  • im so chilled its great lol thankyou x

  • Absolutely beautiful ! One of the best instrumental tracks ever produced. We played a version of this in a high school band where we went into a blues in the middle then back into this slow mood to finish. Love it...

  • Esta canción es una copia grosera a Sun King de The Beatles, a pesar de esto es buena.

  • @gusproductions No es copia grosera jajaja de hecho Beatles se basaron en esta canción para hacer Sun King...

  • @fickleparoxysm yeah, i was just listening to that and there was a comment virtually identical to yours just the other way round :D

    both outstanding pieces of music!

  • @fickleparoxysm More like Sun King sounds like Albatross. Apparently, John liked this song so much that it inspired him to write Sun King.

  • @fickleparoxysm GEORGE harrison was inspired by this song on how to play the guitar on Sun King so pretty much yes

  • Prachtig nummer, was toen 12 jaar... Kon later ni geloven dat het dezelfde groep was van Dreams, Rhiannon, enz... totaal verschillend MAAR GOED ! ! !
