Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac live tapes unearthed

1968 and 1970 shows form the basis of new album Before The Beginning

Trending Now

Tapes of two live concerts by Peter Green’s Fleetwood Mac dating from 1968 and 1970 have recently been unearthed and restored to provide the basis for Before The Beginning, a new 3xCD box set and two-volume vinyl release due out on June 7.

The tapes were completely unmarked so the exact origin of the recordings is unknown. Experts were merely able to date them to 1968 and 1970 respectively.
