I love the fact that Christine put the reporter into place by making his reference to them as being ladies and musicians instead of girls just being backup singers. These two are hugely different and recognized.
When he asked the question in that way I was thinking (i) Christine had already been in the band for some times and was always a musician not just a bauble,and (ii) hadn't the interviewer heard of,for example,Suzi Quatro?
Christine's humor " I had already been in the band as a lady.. "😅 she was so clever and funny naturally.. Fleetwood Mac is one of the classiest rock bands of all time. One of the best rock n roll bands of all time.😊 legendary. Nice to see the 3 lead singers and all 3 primary writers interviewed back in 1977, during their legendary meteoric rise while on tour for Rumours. Love seeing their sophistication here.
I love Christine's speaking voice. It seems so low and serious, and then she sings and it's this beautiful lilt. All three of these people are amazing.
Three things that stand out for me: 1. They were so young here. 2. Reporters were asking same stupid questions like today. 3. Stevie and Lindsey still looked happy and in harmony together.
Unfortunately, Lindsey and Stevie had already broken up and Lindsey was already involved with Carol Ann Harris. This was an interview and so they would certainly project cohesion and harmony but Lindsey kept his distance from Stevie outside of the band. Stevie herself was already involved with Don Henley (Eagles).
The vibe stands out to me as well…cause we now have the benefit of hindsight and we know it was volatile amongst them during this time….incestuous relationships, addictions, breakups, health scares etc BUT…when watching them on a surface level in this setting you don’t detect turmoil
I love how they handled the question, but I wouldn’t consider it a BS question. I was impressed that the guy had thought of a question that I’ve never heard asked of Fleetwood Mac before. Maybe I’ve not spent a lot of time watching interview footage, but I thought it was an intriguing question and was interested to see how they responded to it. I’d love to hear more about their experiences as women in an industry dominated by men.
@@Starlight_Silver you are correct but she played with him as in Christie with her wit, Stevie just goes straight at him and makes sure he knows the answer.
@@Starlight_Silver I remember Stevie saying, decades later, it was around 1975/76, she turned to Chris one day, and said: "You know, we're both good, individually...but, together, we're a force to be reckoned with..." And, that's how they handled themselves in The Music Industry...they were going to be respected, amongst "the boys" and the executives, and they got it.
Stevie is so amused by Christine shoving that question back into that reporter’s face. 😂😂😂 I love it. This is prior to media training and them just acting whatever way they wanted. I love it
Love this interview, for me Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie are the true iconic legendary queens, songstresses and magical beauty ethereal rock and roll goddesses of Fleetwood Mac. Without them, it wouldn’t have been the special band it was. She is now flying high with the spirits, May she gift them with her cool personality and voice. Two of my fave female songwriters as well. ❤♥️😍🥰😘🤩 🌟 ✨ 🎵 🎶 🎹 🎼 👑💎⚜️ 🎙️ 🎤
This is rock and roll history. Future generations will be paying to watch this. I'm 58 and I have never seen this footage. I never knew this existed. Fleetwood Mac is a historical part of rock history. Peter Green was a genius. A true pioneer of his time. Damn this is amazing.
@@michaelberthelot3594 - I disagree. The rythm section - the drums and the bass - is also a significant part of what make Fleetwood Mac a great band. Mick Fleetwood does an excellent job always, and John McVie is a top notch bassist - they both make the very solid foundation which on Lindsey, Christine and Stevie can display their brilliance. The girls were 2/5 of what made Fleetwood Mac great. I think they all equally deserve to share the glory of Fleetwood Macs greatness.
The 2 ladies MADE THE BAND FANTASTIC! The audiences craved Christine & Stevie because of their softness, subtle sounds, harmonies, intensity, & overall moderating influences. If there were only guys -- the sound would never have blossomed. It would have been too harsh. I LOVE FLEETWOOD MAC! * Cav *
Yes Christine carried the group vocally until Stevie joined. People thought Christine resented Stevie but the truth was the opposite. She loved Stevie and welcomed here presence in the band. Christine was just as successful as a backing vocalist as she was as a lead vocalist.
Stevie Nicks so awesome ,, always so strikingly foreign and original in her creativity ...and Christine McVie pure honest soul and beautiful...I wish female artists or male for that matter these days could even have a fingernail of integrity what these 2 have
....for me as a teen the music helps myself really in a hard time. And Stevie Nicks was the most beautiful woman i've seen 🙂 - much more than Farrah Fawcett 🤭
All the best Stevie Nicks interviews seem to come from Australia! Stevie's singing voice was at its best around this time in 1977 and even her speaking voice here is just beautiful!
Stevie: "they couldn't continue on without me or Christine." She set the tone right away, so did Lindsey, but Stevie didn't shy from her thoughts, got to love her confidence.
Those harmonies of Stevie, Lyndsey and Christine are the essence of the band. I was their for the Rumors Tour and have only missed one tour (last one, $$ astronomical)...I have been listening to their, what is now, a very short catalog of albums with headphones on, and you realize their sound can never be reproduced with the summation of the 3.
What planet is this interviewer on. Janis Joplin, Grace Slick, Maggie Bell, Elkie Brooks, Ann and Nancy Wilson, Julie Driscoll, Patti Smith, and many more .... all 'ladies in rock' in 1977 and before that, and far more than just 'pretty faces' as he puts it. Stevie and Christine were in very good company.
@Jonathan Birch: Heart was around before Lindsey and Stevie joined Fleetwood Mac! Heart formed in 1973. Released the album Dreamboat Annie in 1975! So much for your 1977. Just because you lived under a rock don’t mean the rest of us did!
@Jonathan Birch: Not hardly Bud! I know that Lindsey and Stevie were around in 1973. I have their album Buckingham Nicks. But, they weren’t part of Fleetwood Mac at that time. Lindsey and Stevie joined Fleetwood Mac in 1974. Who’s living under a rock?
What lovely people. Talented yet modest. ! Love Fleetwood Mac. Christine you are the best. We will miss you. Still have 'Rumours' after all these decades.
Stevie was and is now an incredibly beautiful soul. Met her as a result of a writing's group during my time in Phoenix in the 90s. Incredible woman with an indefinable soul.
Cuz of her Lindsey Buckingham is not in group no more. And now that Christine has passed, there is no more Fleetwood Mac, according to Mick in a recent interview.
First time I ever heard them...I was in a beautiful park in Santa Barbara, very happily pregnant & the song was I WANT TO BE WITH YOU EVERYWHERE. Great memories...love that 🎵 song BIG!
Definitely overlooked as one of the guitar greats. So many songs he perfected with his choice of phrasing... Two of my favorite examples would be 1) You make loving fun at 2:35 the little solo there and 2) Dreams which his guitar work evoked every bit as much of a haunted, longing feeling as Stevie's singing. Lindsey had a great finger-style technique similar to Mark Knoplers
@@joe1972 exactly right, very similar to mark knopflers style, I remember his old song called trouble, which was a pretty catchy song and smooth and crisp on the strings towards the end. John Mayer also has a good smooth style, check out his newer song wild blue on the new album, really good strumming at the end.
Christine Perfekt McVie ( Beautiful Songbird ❤️❤️🙏🙏) Sad For the Loss of christine on 30 Nov 22 ❤️❤️💕💕🙏🙏🏵️💐🌺🌼🌸🍀💛❤️💙💚🇺🇸🇩🇪 Her Beautiful Calming Muzik Will Live On Forever 💛❤️💙💚 ( Sweet Christine )
Great interview, never saw it before! What a lineup. There will never be another band like Fleetwood Mac. Too bad they couldn't work out their differences in the end.
I was at a get together at someone's home and there was Stevie Nicks - so I went over introduced myself and said hello, we had a really lovely chat, she was really fun to talk with, smart, funny, charming and so beautiful in person. We talked for about 20 minutes, and were enjoying each others company, and then - her then-boyfriend showed up. A great memory.
Christine was truly a lady, a talented musician, and her voice excelled above the clouds. Christine was most beautiful and her humbleness magnified her spirit. We'll see her in the Kingdom of God. ♥
Agree Lindsey was an amazing addition and is an amazing guitarist. His figer-style picking, chords and solos were perfect for every song. There's a ton of shredders out there, some great some not, but no other guitarist makes me feel the way Lindsey does. The guitar part he played in Dreams sounds like nothing else and evokes as much feeling as Stevie's singing.
A very different band peter green was a genius and an incredible guitar player. So was Danny Kirwan and Jeremy Spencer The blues stuff is good but the post acid stuff is other worldly an completely unique. Love Lindsay and that whole era too.
And Australia loved them. I recall that Australia really ‘got’ that particular type of American music of the 1970’s. We seemed to share a lifestyle that reflected in music by The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac. They were very popular.
I like Christine’s knowledge and how to respond to misogynistic questions. Yes woman can compose and yes they are excellent rock artist and you let them be there could be even mot me rock. Just check out bands like paramount , the pretty reckless now a days female lead singers. This band is truly incredible.
@@hale_jp_1957 I can see Christine McVie being portrayed by Jennifer Lawrence, she has a considerable resemblence to her from my point of view. And Stevie Nicks being portrayed by Anya Taylor-Joy. About John McVie and Mick Fleetwood no one comes to my mind really, they have very particular factions
Amazing time for the group really getting going (this is pre Rumours I guess?)...Of course, LOVE Christine's reply back there on "women in the band" Lol! And THAT look Stevie gives to Lindsey raising her eyebrows at 1:15 is so darned adorable. Good stuff, thanks for the vid and as always ROCK the funk ON 😎🤘🔥🤘
I wondered about the timing too. Rumours was released on 4 February 1977, but he's not asking them about it in this clip, he's asking them about the history of the band. Maybe the album had just come out and was yet to acquire its classic status? But my understanding was that it hit big very quickly.
I definitely agree with you on that Michael Berthelot. Lindsey was a main cog force in the machinery. No question about it. I didn't mean that Christine & Stevie were the be all do all end all. To me if anyone of them aren't in the group then it's not a pure Fleetwood Mac.
Huge historical musical synchronicity that they met up at sound City... Would love to have been at their first dinner meet at a small Mexican restaurant around Van nuys.
Christine is a massive part of the Fleet Mac sound, but Stevie's voice is the one that has the hook. And Lindsey's. Those two are the powerhouse on vocals. Such a solid band. Rumors is the King of the 70s
@@amandajstarI think it’s pointless really to say who was the better of the two. Christine and Stevie are equal powers in the band talent wise . They both contributed so much to the portfolio we listen to.
Fleetwood Mac was unique . I say “was”because without Christine McVie, may she RIP, it really isn’t Fleetwood Mac. It’s the only Rock Band of its era with two female leads that appealed to male listeners just as much as one with male leads would, and it was massively successful. I think much of that, most of it even, is due to Christine. Her voice had an androgynous quality that was attractive to all. Such a loss!
Knowing what we know now about the affairs, couples splitting up, tc i have tosay this is probably the most professional group ever. You know there had to be fighting and arguments but apparently they were mature enough to keep working and working well together. Its really quite impressive.
Such different times. Kids grew up very resilient. Manners & kindness were important values. The teasing was relentless & often really funny. That was an era of a plethora of long lasting 4:38 bands bc we’d earned skills of compromise, diplomacy etc. Tough skin. Solo acts now. Very few bands. Certainly none the caliber of them. Everyone’s so touchy. Triggered. Self absorbed.
@Jonathan Birch Ever filed taxes? Ever had a bank account? Ever had a credit card? Ever made payments on something? I haven't. Now who's the pleb MR. lemming? For that era of the band eh was generous
I moved to London from Switzerland in 1976 when Rumours came out! They have been with me all my life! R.I.P. wonderful Christine and may the others rock on for so much longer!
Good grief. Grace Slick fronted Jefferson Airplane a full decade earlier. Fanny was a successful all-girl band years earlier. The all-girl Liverbirds started in 1963. Kleenex was an amazing all-girl band year before this. How could the interviewer even have asked the question?

I love the fact that Christine put the reporter into place by making his reference to them as being ladies and musicians instead of girls just being backup singers. These two are hugely different and recognized.
@Vlad TheInhaler Ok simp
What's wrong with asking them about being some of the first ladies in rock and roll bands? Nothing!
Don't be so hysterical, Christine did no such thing, in fact she did agree with the interviewer since she confirmed they were innovators
When he asked the question in that way I was thinking (i) Christine had already been in the band for some times and was always a musician not just a bauble,and (ii) hadn't the interviewer heard of,for example,Suzi Quatro?
I liked her answer too. Plus, there were plenty of other female led bands prior to Fleetwood Mac. It's an absurdly sexist and ignorant question.
Christine McVie is pure class.
Quite intelligent and ...yea classy
She is stoned pretty hard in this interview.
She also never lost her fastball. She always sounded so good their whole career.
Rest in Peace CHRISTINE MCVIE, she is flying to Heaven as the Songbird that she is x!
right??? RIP...glad it wasn't a lingering and horrible illness. ALL Respect to her...she brought us all so many beautiful songs....!
Amen🙏

@@parson7260 I said that very quietly. He never replied, so he probably never heard me. We'll just let it go...
@@amandajstarI think it’s pointless really to say who was the better of the two. Christine and Stevie are equal powers in the band talent wise . They both contributed so much to the portfolio we listen to.
I love how sober they are in this interview, even Stevie.
Actually Stevie is the one who seems unsolder to me.
My favorite musicians.
Fleetwood Mac was unique . I say “was”because without Christine McVie, may she RIP, it really isn’t Fleetwood Mac. It’s the only Rock Band of its era with two female leads that appealed to male listeners just as much as one with male leads would, and it was massively successful. I think much of that, most of it even, is due to Christine. Her voice had an androgynous quality that was attractive to all. Such a loss!
Knowing what we know now about the affairs, couples splitting up, tc i have tosay this is probably the most professional group ever. You know there had to be fighting and arguments but apparently they were mature enough to keep working and working well together. Its really quite impressive.
Such different times. Kids grew up very resilient. Manners & kindness were important values. The teasing was relentless & often really funny. That was an era of a plethora of long lasting 4:38 bands bc we’d earned skills of compromise, diplomacy etc. Tough skin. Solo acts now. Very few bands. Certainly none the caliber of them. Everyone’s so touchy. Triggered. Self absorbed.
If you've never listened to Fleetwood Mac's early blues albums then check them out. You're in for a lesson on the roots of British rock music.
Ya it's good. But I like what they did after Peter green blew his mind in that castle.
@Jonathan Birch eh
@Jonathan Birch Ever filed taxes? Ever had a bank account? Ever had a credit card? Ever made payments on something? I haven't. Now who's the pleb MR. lemming? For that era of the band eh was generous
@Jonathan Birch pretending to laugh is a major tell
I moved to London from Switzerland in 1976 when Rumours came out! They have been with me all my life! R.I.P. wonderful Christine and may the others rock on for so much longer!
Three amazing singer-songwriters. 😊
So young. Dang time flies.
May Angels tenderly cradle Christine in Heaven and console her bereft loved ones 🙏
These three are the songwriters of the band and the interviewer never asked one question about song writing.
RIP Christine McVie
Best band of all time
No.
Just your favorite.

Best band of all time is a ridiculous proclamation.
Good grief. Grace Slick fronted Jefferson Airplane a full decade earlier. Fanny was a successful all-girl band years earlier. The all-girl Liverbirds started in 1963. Kleenex was an amazing all-girl band year before this. How could the interviewer even have asked the question?
