Fleetwood Mac - Live - 1980
Japan 2 LP-Set (1st pressing) / P-5593/94W

Live is a double live album released by Fleetwood Mac in 1980. It was the first live album from the then-current line-up of the band, and the next would be The Dance from 1997. The album was certified gold (500,000 copies sold) by the RIAA in November, 1981.

Of particular note are three new songs — Christine McVie's "One More Night", Stevie Nicks' "Fireflies", and a well-harmonized backstage rendition of the Beach Boys' "The Farmer's Daughter". The latter two were released as singles, but only "Fireflies" charted.

"Don't Let Me Down Again" is a song from the Buckingham Nicks album.

Also notable are two Lindsey Buckingham guitar showcases. The first, "I'm So Afraid", was popular as a concert finale during this period. The second was Buckingham's take on former Mac guitarist Peter Green's signature number, "Oh Well" (originally from 1970's Then Play On).
