     I really nice find Review written by T-Bud, May 19th, 2007 I haven't listened to this for years. Lost in my collection. What a gem. One of the really good things is you get to hear a lot of how good Danny Kirwan was. His influence on Green and the others is rarely mentioned. The sound obviously changes drastically after the Kirwan era. Danny, along with Mick, Peter and company playing from the early days are what initially gave the Mac the 'foot in the door' worldwide. The rest is history of course. One has to wonder, if Danny Kirwan had never been there, would we have still seen the other success of Fleetwood Mac.
     The good with the not so good, there's still classics Review written by John Fitzgerald, August 18th, 2004
There's well over 100 minutes of music here to digest so with almost any recording of that length, one must accept the good with the not so good but this double dose isn't as bad as some have feared and there are some classic moments in here for sure. Although Danny is only spotlighted on three songs I think of his offerings as some of the best. "World's in a tangle" is my favorite, a slow blues with lots of feeling and the fiery "Like it this way" rocks the legendary, crumbling Chess studios to the ground. Peter helps in the demolition with a classic reading of "Homework" which closes the set. Meanwhile, he starts the set with two irresistible numbers "Watch out" & "Ooh baby" One does feel that "Sugar mama" could've been a classic slow burner had there been time for another full take (you can even hear Peter admit at the end that he felt as though he "hit a lot of bum notes" on it) but there's an intriguing sounding instrumental in "Red hot jam" included too. Jeremy has got a side worth of material and although it's what one would expect from Spencer, these are very engrossing performances and don't suffer from sameness. As all the songs come with in between song banter in the studio, Jeremy's songs include some of the most entertaining parts of those moments. Also, he's got another rumbling speedy tune in "Rockin' boogie" which is definitely a high point and is far superior to it's companion piece "Evenin' boogie" from "Mr. wonderful". Also, let's not forget the numbers on which some of the visiting bluesmen to the sessions step up front and the Mac back them up because some of those are very good too like JT Brown's moving "Black jack blues" and Otis Spann's mellow epic masterpiece that is "Someday soon baby". Unquestionably, this is not a good place to start for collecting Mac but there's enough great recordings here to recommend this one without hesitation.
