It’s hard to comprehend in this age of RUclips and Instagram and Twitter, but back in the day shows like Midnight Special and Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert were the only way for us to see our favorite acts perform on stage, unless we were fortunate enough to go to a concert. We’d spend hours looking at album covers or record sleeves, imagining who played what, how they moved, how they interacted. It was absolutely magical to see your favorite band actually performing live. Hard to describe that feeling
Even hard-core clubbers like me would postpone seeing live acts until later in the evening when Midnight Special was over. TV programming started competing with whoever was touring in your town.
I lived in Memphis throughout the 70s and was fortunate to see live just about every band we listened to for $7 to $15 depending on where I wanted sit (or stand) throughout the concert. Such fun, FUN times.
The Midnight Special was a great place to get a good listen or just see what the band was like live. One of the oddest things about doing these shows, all the way back to the 50s was how time constraints would some times force a band to shorten a song or speed up the tempo when compared to the album version. No matter what, Fleetwood Mac never disappointed on TV or live when you could afford the tickets...
I'm a Phish person since 1991, and I'd do *terrible* things to have 4k multi-cam vids of them from then now, let alone what I would've done for them at the time.
I went to a lot of concerts. I was making $3.65 an hour. Tickets ranged from $5-30. $50 front row. Every now and then if I had a girlfriend, I would spring for that front row. Or on impulse show up at the gate and get amazing seats for about $10. Beer was thought of as "expensive" at $1each. Because a 6 pack was $2. Or if you're struggling, I remember buying Schlitz or Black Label in the can, $1.85 for 6 pack cans, head down to the river with hackysack and accessories, meeting up with strangers to play hackysack. After a summer, some became friends. These phones aren't more fun. If you're young, reconsider the use of energy and seek outdoors. You're more likely to care about parks by getting out in nature. Without plants and trees, we are all dead. What did you imagine air comes from? What other magical creations clean our air? Better understand Real Estate Developers taking out our air supply and adding hot pavement ain't exactly a mystery. We have plenty of buildings to re-develop, land already damaged to improve. Get on the bicycle. The pedal kind. Electric bicycles with dead batteries no fun to pedal home. Pedal your own. Become a human being!!
Don't sleep on Christine McVie, her lead vocals are great too. Songbird is one of the finest ballads ever written.
and Oh, Daddy
Christy McVie is other woman...voice of an angel! Everywhere is a great song with her on lead
RIP Christy....x
RIP Christ McVee ...
This was the moment that the world was introduced to Stevie Nicks and she hasn't disappointed since and the rest is history.
"Who's gonna be on it?" I cracked up. Absolutely right gentlemen. :)
That was hard. "We need The Midnight Special back." "Yeah! Wait, but who would they have on!" Perfect!
“We need this back, but…who’s gonna be on it?”
That was priceless. :-)
Who wasn't captivated by Stevie's voice!
The entire self titled 1975 album that this comes from is a masterpiece.
RHIANNON is the horse goddess amongst other things and its like she herself possessed Stevie during this performance. This is such my jam i named my daughter Rhiannon
Oh, ho! Falling in love with the 1970s Stevie Nicks, huh? She is seriously adorable. And she doesn't even blink. Well, get in line, pal, it starts way back there...
Another must see live is: Silver Springs
From their farewell concert. Stevie wrote Silver when Lyndsey left her for the final time, abandoned in Aspen. The footage is like you’ll never witness.
Yes! The Silver Springs version from “The Dance” brings tears to my eyes
Yes!
My favorite F Mac song....and that is sayi g SOMETHING!!! Finally got to see them a couple years ago. Unfortunately Lindsey wasn't with them. 😢But Mike Campbell from Tom Petty's band (get into them!!!!) took up slack on guitar and the lead singer from Crowded House did his singing proud.
@@suesebree8670 David Byrne was the lead singer for Fleetwood Mac? Wow!
@@jacqueline4514 i'm. Sorry. Neil Finn from Crowded House. I fixed that post.
This performance captured the "blues " sound that Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie (the key board player) had together. THIS one is on my play list daily. Her voice is still as strong and lovely today . Great reaction , keep rocking :)
The moment Fleetwood Mac arrived. The rest is history.
I can still remember being 15, and the night I rode my bike home from my girlfriend’s house, and settling in with some cold pizza and a coke to watch Midnight Special and seeing this performance. My first time seeing Fleetwood Mac perform live.
…and I was in.
I knew you'd love it. That was a special performance by all of them but, my Lord Stevie! What a package ❤ Thanks guys!
"How the hell did the Midnight Special get canceled?"
I had the exact same thought when it got canceled.
Stevie was/is flat out mesmerizing. Love that jazzy keyboard work by the late Christy McVie. Flat out 🔥. I think La’s in love. 😊
Oh you don’t know just how deep this rabbit hole is! Enjoy! ☮️ ❤️ 🏴
Great performance. It's time to get to some of Christine McVie songs. "Don't Stop", "Songbird," and "Oh Daddy" are great tracks.
You guys: tiny little square
Stevie: big screen
Well done!
Thank you! Y’all got 50 years of greatness to discover. The Mac then, Stevie’s solo career.
This Midnight Special was actually an 18-minute plus performance guys. A treat for all who hasn't watched it yet. Thanks for reacting to this guy's !✌️
The box set of Midnight Special, every Friday night, is worth the splurge. Each CD is best of the year from 73-78 plus bonus CD million dollar sellers. There was also Don Kirshner's Rock Concert to watch on Sat nights. Soul Train with Don Cornelius Sat afternoon and American Band Stand mix of performers with dance.
Damn!! This performance gives me goosebumps every single time ❤
Lindsey Buckingham on guitar. Check out him, performing Big Love live. Remarkable.
“Who’s gonna be on it”
Lol, Truer words have never been spoken.
And that, gentlemen, is why she’s been inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame…twice. They did a 4-song set that night on the Midnight Special. Check it out!
I grew up with them - and I mean the Rumors album was in heavy rotation in our house and on the radio. In 81 when Stevie went solo I bought her album, I was 11, and played it to death. I was put in vocal lessons - singing from a very young age and my teacher asked me what singers I listened to. I caught hell for Stevie Nicks (more due to a way of singing that could damage the voice than her actual voice) but even I never knew she was like this live. Next level stuff. No doubt I was simply too young to have seen a late night show like this or go to a concert to see a live performance. She and Maria McKee have a lot more in common vocally than I realized. McKee sang with a band called Lone Justice in the late 80s - and I still consider her one of THE great female singers of the 80s.
“Who’s going to be on it”? Classic😂!
You must see them do Silver Spring live from the Dance. It's incredible
So many good jams! Silver Springs, Landslide and Song Bird makes me cry.
Mac always rocked harder live than in the studio. The next song to try is Go your own way. Start with the studio version and then the live version from the Mirage tour in 1982. Another great song from that tour where Stevie really goes hard is Sisters of the moon.
Just laughed my ass off at the Midnight Special question, "who's gonna be on it?" LOL!!! Thanks guys, great review on the legendary performance.
I've had the pleasure of seeing them twice 👏
My buddys dad was a charter Capt. and took them to a bunch of east coast shows. Said they liked to party. Fun folks.
I spit my tea out when you asked "Who's going to be on it?" Sad, but true.
Stevie was my 1st celebrity crush as a kid in the 70’s.
Although she was inspired to write the song by a fictional book, Rhiannon is an actual goddess in Welsh mythology. The book she read must've included certain elements of the Rhiannon lore, it shows in the lyrics. Stevie is a goddess herself, end of story.
That is a good question to ponder: if we could get the Midnight Special back, who would you put on it? I have a few ideas myself, but given the current state of music, I'm afraid of who would be put on that stage.
And what they would do.
@@senseandsensibility3636 exactly, it's actually kind of a frightening thought 😳
"MTV killed Rock and Roll" is a common sentiment. When music videos came out, shows like The Midnight Special, Soul Train, and Bandstand faded away. Live performances gave way to flashy videos and back up dancers.
Stevie Nicks solo concert live in Chicago is the best version this and edge of seventeen I've ever heard anyone who's never seen them is missing out
The best video I have seen of Fleetwood Mac's Nick's/Buckingham years is the live version of I'm so Afraid live from the 1997 The Dance concert Buckingham's solo was epic. Other than that performance with big kudos to Lindsey for laying down some wicked licks my favorite years of Mac are the Peter Green/ Danny Kirwin and later the Bob Welch years.
Stevie Nicks is a Queen!
Other live videos of theirs have more camera coverage of the fabulous rhythm section of Mick Fleetwood on drums and John McVie on bass! To watch how they lock in with each other on these relentless grooves is really something to see! THIS camera man couldn't bear to move off of the super close up on Nicks' face! LOL!
The bass by John McVie and the lead guitar by Lindsey Buckingham is always underrated in these great hits by Fleetwood Mac.
The drive and sound help bring the vocals and vibe of the music to the forefront. They're the hot sauce on the chicken. The chicken
is really good...but you need that hot sauce to really make it extra tasty. Keep frying that chicken for us guys. Y'all got the best
Chicken Shack in town. We love what you serve, so good it would make the Colonel run and hide. keep up the great work.l
Funny coincidence re:Chicken Shack. Christine McVie's first band before she joined Fleetwood Mac was...CHICKEN SHACK!
@@Rickhorse1 Thank you for pointing that out, so I didn't have to!
wow, lindsey is most definitely not underrated. he gets a ton of cred.
A new Midnight Special would be great but you are so right with the comment “who would be on it?” This was a great video and reaction guys.
Oh my gosh. We need it back, but who’s gonna be on it? Yep.❤️🔥
Since Tina Turner has the label of Queen of rock. I would have to say that Stevie is the High Priestess of Rock.
I will always think of Stevie Nick's the Queen of rock & roll because she did write own lyrics Tina was good,but people have different opinions I can respect that.
I went to see FM in Memphis in 1977 shortly after Rumours was released. I was an Airman going through E-school at the Naval Air Station. Needless to say it was a great experience.
Please do the Rumours album 👍
Every. Single. Track. is a stone monster.
Great reaction guys! Please do the live version of "Silver Springs" from the Dance. I am telling you guys its the most enthralling performance you will see.
Its based on Stevies and Lyndsay's breakup. You feel the passion and tension in that performance. Especially when she stares him down. Its epic! You wont be disappointed!
Great reaction, guys! This is my favorite performance by Stevie... she absolutely kills it.
INCREDIBLE! Thank you so much for that reaction and video!!
How cool! I made a comment for y'all's reaction to the studio version of this song that there were several live versions out there where Stevie just sort of goes into a chanting sort of trance and belts out the outro in such a powerful way, and THIS was def one of those, so glad you guys witnessed it!
midnite special was "who is gonna be on it" U got that right!!!!
Stevie nicks was the "quintessential" rock star. She was so cool and a lot of girls in my school would dress just like her. lol 😏 She had great fashion sense. And she had some incredibly strong vocal skills. I loved to see her perform, they gave some fantastic concerts. Here's another song, if interested "Fleetwood Mac - Landslide (Official Music Video)" this song was written by Stevie Nicks, and it is from their self-titled album "Fleetwood Mac" (1975). It's always fun rocking with you gents.
The midnight special never disappointed. Great music and incredible live performances.
Midnight Special was on years and it was awesomeness!
They were so freaking cool back in the day. My sister totally went out of her way to adopt this Stevie Nicks look there for a little while as a teen.
Midnight Special redux? - "Ya, but whose gonna be on it??? " Precisely gentlemen Well said. LMAO on that one. TRUTH!
I always marvel at the amazing editing and production on these MS performances. Aerosmiths performance was great as well.
Lots of 70s baby girls got their name from this song!
You are so right about The Midnight Special.
Great question about Midnight Special guys! I love Steve Miller Band's live version of Fly Like An Eagle along with this (and Steely Dan of course). In the UK we had great live performances on OGWT (Bob Marley) and now Later...with Jools Holland (Radiohead, Oasis)
Such great performances on midnight special
The term is "road hot" Fleetwood Mac had been performing this number to sold-out stadiums for over a year before they did this live on a sound stage with a controlled audience (still you can hear a lot of crew noise in the wash)
Loved that reaction guys. I fell in love with Fleetwood Mac back in 75, the White album, this album. Great singles. I was 10 years old. Great band, I grew up as they cemented themselves in rock n roll history. This performance blew my mind as a kid. Loved midnight special. A lot of bands and performers turned up on there.
Oh goddamn you guys got the right recording and everything. Timeless song, legendary group. Loved this
Thank for reaction gentlemen! One of my favorite performances to watch, she mesmerizes us all with that one.
Think about it... we saw these bands play for $10 a show... or paid $25 and saw several bands perform. I went to the 1976 show in Des Moines Iowa and saw Fleetwood Mac and Reo Speed Wagon along with a couple of other bands... we paid $25 and spent the day rocking. I saw Heart, and AC/DC and Nazareth in concert in a baseball stadium in Davenport Iowa the year before Bon Scott passed away... if we didn't see them live... we watched them on the Midnight Special... we lived in special times for rock-n-roll.
I went to a taping of the Midnight Special. Large set with stages at both ends. They probably did this song two or three times and aired the best take. Stevie was a babe. And what a voice. That hair is a trip tho.
Beyond awesome! What a great time for music!
Saturday night special was like Monday night football back then it was the only time the artist or players had a coast-to-coast audience
For another jaw dropping masterpiece performance from the Midnight Special, hit "Do You Feel Like We Do" from Peter Frampton. His guitar playing is on another level, and he had great stage presence, and this is his greatest filmed performance I've ever seen.
THIS^^^^^^^^^^^
Ms Stevie Nicks the godmother and queen of rock & roll!! What a voice!!!
The priestess of rock💖 lol
Oh cool this is the video I was hoping for! Stevie Nickks got those cocaine eyes! 🙂
I have been waiting for you guys to do this version! My favorite part is the end where she just cuts loose.
I was hoping you would do the live version after the studio version, you did not disapoint.
Awesome. 🎶❤️🎶
Back in the day we got our live entertainment from American Bandstand and Midnight Special. These performances were big events since we didn't have the internet.
I also remember sitting in front of the TV waiting for premiers of videos from MTV. I miss the anticipation & excitement of it all.
I love it!
Bring it back but who’s going to be on it?
It will never be the same.
OOPS! EVERYYYY
This version blows the studio version out of the water.
Thank you for saying "who's gonna be on it???"
Heart on midnight special is also ridiculous 😉👍
I'm so glad your guys picked up on this and ran with it, right on.
It's wild, but Stevie is somehow everyone's type. I'm sure it had its benefits and annoyances for her, but I've never seen anyone not entranced by her vibe :D
If you gentlemen are looking for some live performances from back then, there are plenty on RUclips.
The Midnight Special has its own channel and I've seen some of Don Kirshner's rock concert videos as well.
You should see anything from "The Dance" it's the same people decades later. And they're still that good if not better. It was a well known saying back then that "Women wanted to be Stevie and men wanted to be with Stevie"
Another great performance to watch on the Midnight Special is Could it be Magic by Barry Manilow.
I wanted to be SN when I was a kid. ❤
Time to try 1960's Fleetwood Mac. John McVie and Mick Fleetwood are the only ones who remained into the line-up you've just watched. Try Black Magic Woman (the original) or Green Manalishi. Less rock but more blues.
Such an iconic performance by Fleetwood Mac🎶 they are all spot on but Stevie's act and voice is something else. Thanks guys for reacting to this great song. You are right - who would perform on this show today and even come close to the acts back in the day??
Who indeed you guys are the best!
Dom Kirchner owned a publishing company..the TV thing showcased ácts for which he owned the rights…most “concerts” were berift of audiences or had a few people for the sake of the band…FYI
You've got great taste gentlemen! Please check out Fleetwood Mac's - Go Your Own Way (1976), Big Love (1987) and Little Lies (1987)!
Saw them live in '76 in Chicago and they sounded amazing. Stevie wore her all-black witchy outfit ( like this) and whirled and spun on stage...Christie McVie sang "Blackbird" and you could have heard a pin drop because it was so riveting. I am glad to have memories of seeing some of these iconic bands live! But Midnight Special was the next best thing, and we are lucky these performances were captured so we can still enjoy them today. Best of all, we get to watch younger people like yourselves discover the great music of our generation! Hope your content will inspire other young people to explore & discover the best of the 60's, 70's and 80's because they have no idea what they're missing. Thanks, guys!
Fleetwood Mac is worth a deep dive; Stevie’s performance of “Silver Springs” on their live album “The Dance” is amazing; it’s in video. Makes me cry and I still love it❤
Good question, I made sure I knew where I was and how long it took me to get to a TV to watch, we had no internet, RUclips, no MTV even when they were a music station, you wanted to watch a music video, this was pretty much it
