The night the Mac found their magic — before Rumours broke the world.
Fleetwood Mac's performance at the Capital Centre in Landover, Maryland, on October 5, 1975, was part of their tour promoting the self-titled album Fleetwood Mac released earlier that year.
Acting
Stevie's twirl-and-shawl game already legendary.
Sound
Buckingham-Nicks harmonies that launched a thousand breakups.
Production
Crisp 1975 capture of a band becoming itself.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was only their fifth show with Buckingham and Nicks, who joined after Bob Welch's departure. The Capitol Centre crowd witnessed the new lineup still finding its legs—though you'd never guess from Stevie's confidence.
The self-titled album they were touring had just started climbing charts; within months they'd record Rumours while imploding as couples. This footage is essentially the calm before the cocaine-fueled storm.
