Fleetwood - Tango in the Night (1986)

This is my rip, with optional English .srt subtitles (makes it easy to follow the lyrics). It's standalone friendly. Despite the lukewarm reviews, I actually quite liked this music DVD, and if you like Fleetwood Mac like me I'm sure at least some of the numbers will appeal to you.

Fleetwood Mac, minus Lindsey Buckingham and plus Rick Vito and Billy Burnette, perform cuts from the Tango In The Night album, as well as classic Fleetwood Mac songs at the Cow Palace in San Francisco.

Recorded in late 1987, his hour-long concert documents a transitional period for Fleetwood Mac, with Lindsey Buckingham, their driving force, having left (until '97) that same year.

It's a testament to Buckingham's role in the band that it took two guitarist-singers to replace him; but while Billy Burnette and Rick Vito are fine musicians with an abiding respect for the Mac legacy (they perform founding member Peter Green's "Oh Well" and "I Loved Another Woman"), this is a mostly lackluster affair, lacking Buckingham's fire and eccentric stage presence.

Mainstays Mick Fleetwood and John McVie soldier on, as ever, with Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie still on hand as well, and Rumours-era tunes like "Dreams," "Don't Stop," and "The Chain" have a certain timeless appeal.

But when a vest equipped with drum and percussion sounds is the highlight of the show (during Fleetwood's solo spot), you know you're not exactly witnessing history in the making.
