It wasn't till the late '70s, after he had spent five years in John Denver's Aspen-based band, that Steve Weisberg began to see that his former boss was sort of cool. Weisberg was backstage at a John Denver gig at Los Angeles' Universal Amphitheatre when Christine McVie, from Fleetwood Mac, asked Weisberg who he was. When Weisberg said he had been in Denver's group, McVie — who was on top of the pop world at the time, just after the release of Fleetwood Mac's “Rumours” album — was impressed.

“She said, ‘Oh, I love John.' And I said, ‘You? You're too cool for that,'” Weisberg recalled. “I didn't understand how cool John was. He told corny jokes that would make me cringe.”

Back in the '70s, Weisberg would watch as models and actors scrambled to get front-row tickets to Denver's concerts. He couldn't quite grasp the attraction.

“I used to be surprised when a musician who was really hip would show up backstage. One thing John wasn't is hip,” Weisberg said. “Paul Simon was hip. James Taylor was hip. John Denver was sweet and sincere.”

From Lauren Cohan Interview, GQ Magazine

GQ: Can you do Stevie Nicks?

Lauren Cohan: Yes! Oh my god, she's my number one! I just saw the other night, there was a reunion with her and Lindsay Buckingham on MTV and I cried watching it. One of my really good friends in New York is a musician and looks just like Lindsay Buckingham. We always fancied ourselves the nice Fleetwood Mac [laughs].

Fleetwood Mac

Photographer norman seeff rented a beautiful Malibu home overlooking the Pacific to shoot Fleetwood Mac for their 1979 album, Tusk. “They were like kids in a sandbox, having fun,” Seeff recalls. “But they also knew exactly what they were doing. They understood that by being spontaneous they would capture something they wouldn’t get if they were more controlled.” As the wine began to flow, the band became more rambunctious. “They were teasing one another, challenging each other, and being competitive in a playful way,” says Seeff. “At one point John McVie grabbed Stevie Nicks and carried her off into the smoke coming from a smoke machine.” Seeff says he’s seen similar chemistry in only a handful of groups. “Each had a strong, sharply defined personality,” he explains, “and yet when they interacted there was amazing synergy. No bad vibes, just a fascinating sense of intimacy.” Several years later Seeff did a solo session with Nicks, who recalled the Tusk shoot vividly. “She described it as mystical and magical,” he says, “a beautiful experience.”

The footage we have is beautiful to watch, even if it's bad quality. I wish there was more. You can see their chemistry and odd personalities through it. I don't really follow other bands and I don't know what is normal and what is par for the course. I don't know how the Stones or the Eagles act together, but watching the five Macsters does seem magical to me, even if the interaction is not as extraordinary as I imagine it to be -- but I think it is.

Excerpt from a Menomena interview

NUVO: If you could play some romantic songs what would they be?

Seim: I wish I would have done research. Okay, two love jams that we're going to cover, huh? Well I just was told about this Fleetwood Mac re-release and it's one of my favorite albums of all-time. So I've been reading a lot about the recording of that. So how about two Fleetwood Mac songs? How about 'Dreams?' If we could play or sing or do what they did, I probably should do 'Dreams,' then. I guess 'Second Hand News' is about laying down in the tall grass and letting me do my stuff. That's kind of molesty, actually. We'll just pick any two random Fleetwood Mac songs and I'm sure they're probably about love. I'll just make sure to do as much cocaine as possible to replicate the era in which they were played.

Menomena, Guards at The Bishop, February 14. Doors at 8:30 p.m. $12-$14, 18+.
