DVD Reviews of Fleetwood Mac in Concert- Mirage Tour '82

DVD Review: A precious historical document
Summary: 4 Stars

From reading over what people say about this concert, I think a lot of us remember this concert from its HBO broadcast back in 1982. I was seven years old at the time, much too young to really understand the emotions at play on stage. I knew I loved this band. I knew I loved these songs. I wasn't equipped with enough life experience to really "get it".

The gripes in other reviews about the sound quality of this DVD are justified. But in truth, who cares. I feel fortunate to own this at all. In truth, I've heard much worse sound on concert videos. And while what this DVD sounds like is unquestionable important, the real treasure lies in watching the band.

We've all grown used to the modern-day Fleetwood Mac. A slew of supporting musicians onstage. Modern day, sometimes wonderful renditions of songs that have been around for a quarter century now. Stevie's backup singers doing their cheesy choreography. I love modern day fleetwood mac. But revisiting the Mirage concert made me understand the true fire and passion that initially fueled these songs. Stevie has said in interviews that it's easy for her to slip back into the character of her songs. To feel exactly how she felt when she wrote the songs thirty years ago. That's what makes a Stevie Nicks concert so great in 2007. But in this video, the band isn't stepping back into the songs. Watch the faces. Every one is very raw.

"Mirage" was a somewhat tepid album, but this tour sparks and brims with all the energy and genuine drama or Rumours. This was no play acting. Watch Lindsey's face as he sneers at Stevie, fresh off her million selling success with Bella Donna. There is no mistaking that true tension was in the air. This was no act.

All three lead singers totally rip into "The Chain". There was no going through the motions here. But of course, the shocking highlight is "Sisters of The Moon". Chronologically this concert sets right between the "Stevie Nicks Live In Concert" video and the "Stevie Nicks Live At Red Rocks" video. Stevie tears into the material here with the raw intensity of the Red Rocks show, and of course the highlight is what the fans call the "speaking in tongues" version of "Sisters of The moon". At the song's climax, Stevie is so overwhelmed with emotion the electricity running through her is at its max. This video is on you tube. Watch it.

Honestly, this DVD is a must for Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks fans. If only to remember this band before they got a bit more slick and professional. Before they had a million supporting musicians on stage. Raw. Raw. Raw.

Oh, how I wish it were still 1982.
