Having released the box set last month, Rhino have announced that they will reissue standalone 3CD and 2LP vinyl versions of the Fleetwood MacLive reissue.
As a reminder, this live double album was originally released in 1980 and features music mostly recorded during the world tour for 1979’s Tusk. The strong setlist includes massive hits such as ‘Dreams’, ‘Go Your Own Way’, ‘Rhiannon’, and ‘Don’t Stop’.
The new standalone three-CD set is as the same as in the box, so two discs as per the original release – except remastered – and a bonus CD featuring over an hour of unreleased live material. The 14 bonus live tracks include seven songs from the Tusk tour (1979-80), four from the Rumours tour (1977) and three from the Mirage tour (1982).
The 2LP vinyl isn’t quite so exciting since it’s simply a remastered version of the original. There is no bonus seven-inch because that is exclusive to the box set. Nevertheless, you now don’t need to buy that same box if all you want is remastered vinyl.
Both three-CD and 2LP versions of Live will be released on 25 June 2021.
