Remaster Notes:

Great show, very good recording particularly given the year and venue. As with many audience recordings of Fleetwood Mac concerts from this tour, there is a healthy amount of clapping and whistling during the songs (check out the whistling during Oh Daddy in the comments). MVSep worked quite well and really improved the sound. The fade out at the end of I'm So Afraid and fade in at start of Dreams have been combined (eliminating repetitive portions at the end of Afraid and the start of Dreams) so there's no break between songs. Some encore applause was presumably cut between Second Hand News and Songbird, as the level of applause dropped noticeably at what was the very start of Songbird. I applied a cross fade where the volume changed to make it less apparent.

Before and after samples of Landslide and Songbird in the comments, along with Go Your Own Way samples and samples of removed crowd noise. Cover art included in file. Many thanks to the original taper.
