Favorite Instrumental Performance

[aleuzzi]

Name your favorite top two performances by each player of an instrument in Fleetwood Mac, save Dave Mason (who only played certain songs on one studio album) and Mike Campbell (who did not play on any live or studio FM album). For me, it was especially hard to restrict two performances for Mick, Peter, and Danny. The performance could be from a studio or live album that was officially released. Here’s my list:


Peter Green — Before the Beginning; Black Magic Woman (original recording)

Mick Fleetwood — Go Your Own Way; I’m So Afraid

John McVie — Miles Away; Little Lies

Jeremy Spencer — Preachin’ Blues (live, BBC); live-in-studio Crazy Bout You Baby (second solo)

Danny Kirwan — Tell Me All the Things You Do; both Madge Jams

Christine McVie — Crystal (organ); Born Enchanter (piano)

Bob Welch — Future Games (arpeggios and jazz chording); Hypnotized (acoustic string guitar)

Bob Weston — The City (electric slide); Why (acoustic slide)

Lindsey Buckingham — GYOW; Rhiannon

Rick Vito — As Long as You Follow; Save Me

Billy Burnette — Love Shines; Talking to My Heart
