Great song and a very good cover - I say cover as without Peter Green it's not the same Fleetwood Mac but Mick and John obviously held Peter in the highest esteem and its good that they kept Peters music alive once they hit the big (money) time. It certainly brought his music to more people. Rick De Vito does a great job in my opinion.
Again the issue is one of timing. When Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks joined "FM" in 1975, the band were waiting for their big break to happen and needed that burst of creative energy which the two newest members were able to provide propelling the group to the height of super stardom
Fast forward 12 years later and the band were exhausted (creatively and personally). Rick Vito and Billy Burnette arrived when the group were running on empty and already spliting off in different directions
big lindsey fan--but there is just something about ricks version of this song that REALLY gets to me. i saw him perform this in RI in 87--that was my 1st fm concert. i was 15--ive been an fm fan since i was 5. i love everything they have ever done. was dissappointed not to see lindsey on that tour but his subs turned out to be pretty good--even tho it took 2 dudes to replace him!
@iluvlindsey4eva What is wrong with everyone so foolish as to say it took TWO guys to replace L:indsey?! PETER GREEN had TWO other guitarists backing HIM up in the original FM lineup. It is simply the addition of another musician!
And after I shot my mouth off about Rick vito not being Peter Green I have to say he's still a damn fine guitarist and singer with great tone in his playing. Lindsey Buck shouldn't me mentioned in the same sentence though I acknowledge Stevie Nicks and him did make a ton of good songs and even more money for Fleetwood Mac. But the real Mac was in Peter Green's days.
@gsasko Don't be silly. Many people would not even know who Peterb Green was if not for FM lasting all of these decades. Each lineup of FM has been great.
The lead guitarist whoever he is can't hold a candle to Peter Green's playing or vocals. Why do they list Peter Green as being in this when he's nowhere to be found?
Silly bluesuburban. :) It's nice to complement Greeny, but your jab at the fabulously talented Rick Vito is unwarranted. He's awesome. He understands Greeny's songs and gives them the perfect tone. Great voice as well -- and a really cool guy, too.
It was custom built for him. I think I read that on his website. He likes art deco and 50's rockabilly styles, hence the custom guitar and the shirt with the playing cards on it. Pretty cool.
No, the one he's playing here is NOT a Reverend. "Tubes12AX7k" was correct, it's a custom made guitar called a "Streamliner". Rick wouldn't start playing Reverends for about 15 years after this concert
lol everyone has there opinions of each version of FM. People hate RIck and Billy, some wish Lindsey never come back, some wish Peter was still with us...honestly, who cares? FM are a great band and they have stood the test of time and have great guitarists go through the 40 years they've been together....
Hey jache, don't let them get to you so much! ;) There will always be a few militant Lindsey worshippers who feel the need to endlessly attack Rick, even now, twenty years later. Why? They're both great, and they've both gotten even better over the years. This band's had an amazingly high caliber of guitarists over the years (beginning of course with Peter Green) and they're all very worthy of our respect. Rick did this Green tune beautifully!
ok look you're getin all upset for nothin. I don't give a shit that you have a crush on vito the fact that you're chewin me out dont make no fucking sense
Have to agree that Lindsey was special, but hey Rick did a great job, love him, going to see Mick Fleetwoods Blues Band fea. Rick next month, so exicted can't wait.
Glad you have tickets. Must agree about the marketing for the tour, I only found out by accident looking at forthcoming artists at the broadway, when I saw this gig advertised the tickets were not even available!
Be interested to hear your reviews about the show. Enjoy.
Lindsey Buckingham gave Fleetwood Mac that Buckingham/Nicks sound, which is very unique and very special and can never be duplicated.
The one thing that Rick Vito brings here is a moment's return to that original Fleetwood Mac sound. If you look at Mick Fleetwood closely in this video, you can see it, surely. It's that brief joy in reliving something from a long ago time.
Just my perception, of course. Rick Vito is an outstanding guitarist.
The original is available on CD, Fleetwood Mac's debut album titled 'Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac'. In addition to this, Gary Moore recorded a wonderful version on his 'Blues for Greeny' album.
