This is one of very few Fleetwood Mac covers which I really love. The song is "Dreams"

When Someone Yells Fleetwood Mac and This Singer Steals the Show

Guitarist/sampler is quite good too. Together, for 2 people live - awfully good, and perfect for a small outdoors concert.

Thank you if it was you who posted about this duo! I saw a post about the singer, Katie Lowe, ('here' or Mastodon, I think), and immediately lit up, seeing the location(s) - a favorite spot, a little 'artists' enclave', "Towles Court", with studios and little bungalows, in Sarasota, FL. (March 2021). There's a link to this earlier performance in the YT description (and below).

The same poster shared a second vid (this), same song, different day - in July '21 now - at another longtime magical & favorite spot: St. Armand's Circle - beginning with a new rhythm sampling & set-up after taking the request, drums & rhythm track, and off these two go, just the two of them doing one fine 2-person Fleetwood Mac cover.

So, two to choose from: March & July2021 version, both at the height of COVID BTW, but hey ... "this is Florida!".

Accidental find, bubbled up out of nowhere. (Probably YouTube saw me looking at The Little Prince!)

This is... Fleetwood Mac. The original, More like John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers than the Fleetwood Mac of Rhiannon days.

Fleetwood Mac w. Peter Green - Homework -

This is actually a good example of the sound I associate with "original Fleetwood Mac" in their early days, distinctive in its way. But far from Buckingham/Nicks sound, far ahead in the (Version 2.2) Fleetwood Mac. 1968

The NY Times has a featureI* on the forthcoming new album by Lindsey Buckingham, who was one half of the musical and personal
chemistry which bubbled into the first and only album, Buckingham Nicks. Never a commercial success but it is an amazing album.

The album chronicles the life and musical chemistry of the two in the title. Things did not work out well for the couple, with the Times applauding Buckingham for getting up yet again and re-appearing like. a phoenix. I can't say more, article is paywalled.

Many speculate or gossip, but my take is that the relationship was complex & passionate, and maybe... competitive. +/=

Races Are Won

Races are won, some people win and some people always have to lose

Full lyrics below, and just a bit more context & perspective. Oh, and Stevie Nicks wrote it. ;)

Those who follow music/rock/vintage history may know that Fleetwood Mac had it's first huge hits in a long time (ever?) - like Rhiannon - when Stevie and Lindsey joined Fleetwood Mac, who had played out its 60s Mayall/ BluesBreakers/ British rock repertoire Anyone who saw them towards their end (which may have been imminent), knows that they were de-energized, but suddenly reborn & super-infused by Buckingham & Nicks.

But it did mot end well personally, at least for Lindsey, the Times characterizing him as picking himself up once again. He's back.

I think this here is a masterwork song that captures the personal & musical chemistry and I was in the music/sound biz for a while and remember first hearing this album on good sound speakers &/or headphones and getting goose bumps. It's quite an opus.

LYRICS

So many different kind of people
Trying to be the same
"No way," baby
He said
Baby there's no way
If we could start again
Well who knows
Have we really changed
Some say we have
Reflecting our past
Who can say
Who can say

Races are run
Some people win
Some people always have to lose
Tell me I'm wrong
I can't believe you
We tried a thousand times before
Rained on reasons
Kept us believing
That there might still be more

Races are run
Some people win
Some people always have to lose
-Stevie Nicks
