@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
@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. :-)
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.
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 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.

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!
@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.
beautiful piece of music.... had a very close friend who was taken from this world too early, i was the only one who knew he wanted this played at his funeral..... always remember this playing walkin into the cremetorium..... RIP robbie, almost 8yrs and counting.... love ya and miss ya still xx
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!
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??
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.
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.
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.
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!
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...
