Live in Boston (Part 1)

Part 1: As one of the most popular and enduring acts for more than thirty-five years, Fleetwood Mac has seen it all. Anchored by the tight rhythm section of Mick Fleetwood on drums and John McVie on bass, Fleetwood Mac began as a hard-hitting British blues-rock act in 1967, featuring "Black Magic Woman" author, Peter Green. Over the next decade Fleetwood and McVie led the band through numerous personnel changes, including the exit of guitarists and Green and Jeremy Spencer, as psychedelic-era casualties. The band's personnel shuffling resulted in a late 1974 move to California. While auditioning engineers for their new album, Fleetwood and McVie were impressed by soft-rock songwriting duo: Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks. Shortly thereafter the rhythm section stalwarts invited the duo to join Fleetwood Mac, changing the course of the band's musical direction.
