Fleetwood Mac in Chicago 1969 Reviews:
Check Out This Disc !!
2009-09-10 - I cannot express how wonderful this cd is ! I bought it on vinyl in 1983 ,and I have been playing it non stop since. The Mac boys fit right in here. There is no hesitation on their part . The songs flow nicely ,and the vocals by Otis Spann , Big Walter etc. are a great addition to the Mac vocals. Buy this one . You will thank me later !!!

blues guitar for guitar players
2007-07-20 - If you're looking for something to learn some new licks on, this is it. Peter Green has about the rawest sound on a Les Paul I've heard since Roy Buchanan on a Tele!! Buy it you'll like it. bc

Not your typical polished blues album
2007-06-28 - I am not a blues fanatic. I enjoy listening to it and don't really follow the specific musicians.

Having said that, I enjoy listening to good traditional riffs and good blues jams, and this double CD seems to have a plenty of that. A lot of it seems free form with little rehearsal, but that's also the beauty of this CD set. I'm also not sure I could sit and listen to both CD's straight through very often, but with the great musicianship and fun listening this CD offers, it's a good listen.

Enjoy.





Nice for Mac fans, not so much for blues lovers
2005-02-01 - Saying "white folks can't sing blues" is as patently racist (and wrong) as saying black people can't sing country. You have to take the evidence on a case for case basis.

The recorded evidence here shows that sometimes the singing is too clipped and mannered to make good blues ("Watch Out","Like it This Way") but at others it's more relaxed and works well ("Ooh Baby","I'm Worried"). Of the 3 Fleetwood Mac vocalists, Jeremy Spencer is the most frequently convincing.

Most of the time the tunes never really are allowed to open up and burn, instrumentally OR vocally. This is true of both the Mac players, and most of the blues legends they're collaborating with.

Shakey Horton sounds anemic on "South Indiana (2nd take)" and "Last Night". "Red Hot Jam" just ISN'T..despite the presence of Honeyboy Edwards, Green, Buddy Guy, Willie Dixon AND Shakey Horton all on the track. There's never the sort of frantic guitar interplay you'd imagine from such an assemblage. On "Someday Soon Baby", it's leaden drumming from Mick Fleetwood that sinks it;Danny Kirwan's overly stiff vocal ruins "Like It This Way".

Another thing that will detract from this package for all but the most ardent Mac fans is the consistent use of false starts and studio chatter to lead off and finish up tracks.This might have been better either removed, or left at the end as "bonus tracks" to allow for a better listening experience.

The standouts here usually feature Otis Spann, who does several impassioned vocals and adds some wonderful piano (particularly on "World's in a Tangle") or Jeremy Spencer, who pours stinging slide into the mix on his idol Elmore James' "I'm Worried" and "I Can't Hold Out", along with credible vocals.

BOTTOM LINE:
I've heard worse blues albums, but then again, I've heard many that are better. This one is really only for rabid fans of the Mac, not blues aficionados in general.
