EDIT: You're doing a good job as it is zeroing in on it Moz. You just need to pinpoint the Last Fillmore SF or first Whisky LA date. Where is sharksfan and that Hjorte bible he packs when you need 'em!

Hjort bible! Seriously, it's the best day-by-day account I've seen of Fleetwood Mac from its inception (and many events leading up to the band's formation) up to Peter Green's departure. I think there are things in the book that are open to question, but overall it seems very well researched and it's about as comprehensive as could be expected given the time since the events took place. But the scope of the book is limited and it does not cover post-Green Fleetwood Mac.

The FM Legacy site does have reproductions of concert posters for the February '71 Fillmore West and Swing Auditorium shows but not from the Whiskey shows. The 11-14 Feb. dates for the Fillmore and 19 Feb. date for the Swing appear to be correct based on the posters (see attached images). Posters are not always reliable - for example, there's a poster from those 8/69 Fillmore West dates that were cancelled, and I've seen other questionable posters as well - but there doesn't seem to be any particular reason to doubt the accuracy of these 2/71 dates.
