Fleetwood Mac, Jumping At Shadows, 1985 on Varrick

This release is also known as Live in Boston, and first surfaced in the mid-80s. It is labelled as “Live in Boston 1969” but it was actually recorded at The Boston Tea Party (which used to be at 15 Lansdowne Street, where the House of Blues Boston now sits) in February 1970.

It was professionally recorded for a proposed live album and features Peter Green, Jeremy Spencer, Danny Kirwan, John McVie, and Mick Fleetwood.

When Green left, #DannyKirwan became the main supplier of guitar muscle. At the same time, when they began leaning on personal entanglements and available Americans, adding #ChristineMcVie and #BobWelch to fill gaps left by #JeremySpencer's departure, the decline began. I don’t much like the contributions from those two additions on Bare Trees, but Kirwan’s are gems. And can we talk about the album cover? Moody, #minimal perfection. (2/2)
