Fleetwood Mac: 1975-09-23 Wallingford, CT (FLAC_SB/Studio Master_1 CD)

This is a great, recently reformed show from Fleetwood Mac in 1975.  Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham were pretty new to the band and they were making it big-time at this early stage.  This recording was made with a small audience (I've heard 200 - 300 people, but it sounds like  less to me) in a studio.

This show is one of the best Fleetwood Mac 1975 recordings I've heard.  In between songs, when it's quieter, some tape hiss can be heard.  But it just adds to the quality in a nostalgic kind of way and doesn't interfere with the songs.  And there's good left and right channel stereo separation too.  You don't always get that just because a recording was from a soundboard.

Enjoy the show...
