Fleetwood Mac 1969-11-06 Konserthuset, Örebro, Sweden

FLeetwood Mac
Konserthuset, Örebro, Sweden
November 6, 1969
- Pitch-corrected re-upload -


Fellow Dimer and Co-Macanatic Bert (pernod here on Planet Dime) applied his bat-ears, and noticed that the recording ran considerably fast. Fortunately for all of us Macantatix and Greenionados, he was so kind and took it upon himself to do the necessary pitch correction by a vast -4,2% (mind that 5% is about a semi-note!). For details see info below. So, this is definitely an upgrade to my previous torrent.

This is a nice companion to The Mac's November 4, 1969 Stockholm show - though with its only c. 90 min. of run time, it is considerably shorter than its Swedish Tour cousin, and unfortunately comes with less rarely played numbers. That may be the reason why I haven't had this on my "must torrent" priority list so far. However, it still has not shown up here in all the Dime years, plus I do know there are more than a few Macionados around here who may either not have it yet or only have a one of the lesser sounding copies floating around in collectorland. Therefore, it should be a useful addition to most MaCollectors' collections esp. as they do play a bunch of not-too-often-played numbers such as their tour-de-force take of Otis Rush's "It Takes Time", "Sugar Mama", and - a real rarity and gem - a not less than 10 (!) min. version of "Worried Dream" (yes, THAT number!).

Their then latest single "Rattlesnake Shake" was freshly introduced into their set in October 1969 and comes with pieces of "Madge" instead of the later common inclusion of "Underway". One of Mac's stage strengths were their ever changing set lists which makes collecting their live shows even more exciting. They obviously had a huge repertoire to draw from without trouble. Rather cool in my (Mac) book! :-)

Please do NOT spread this show in lossy formats - otherwise: enjoy, trade, share!

(Greeny's) Mac ahoy!
