Then secondly, as the band that  with its Rumours album Californian line-up, tapped into a whole new market in the mid-1970’s which became known as AOR - adult oriented rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe music here on the double CD Madison Blues is from a pivotal eighteen months in Mac’s history as it lost its original if-it-ain’t-blues-we-don't-wanna-know attitude and looked to its own songwriters - and America’s West Coast sound - for inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter Peter Green’s exit in May 1970 the rest of the band bravely decided to carry on as a 4-piece, and so rented an oast house called Kiln House to try and ‘get it together in the country\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristine McVie joined, and one of the stand-out songs, ‘Station Man’, would endure for Mac in the bleak years before they moved to California in 1974 where they struck gold with their eponymous white album and then Rumours. ‘Station Man’ eventually found its way into the live set-list of the Buckingham\/Nicks line-up and listening to it again here you can hear why: in there, as far back as 1970, are some trademarks of the Rumours sound: three-voice harmonies, in-song tempo changes and ringing guitar sounds. Similarly, ‘The Purple Dancer’ and ‘Jewel Eyed Judy’ showcase a vocal harmonies and melodic sense of things to come for Fleetwood Mac many miles down the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDEETS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTracks 1-4 Studio Demos 1969\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristine Perfect Band.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristine Perfect: Vocals\/Piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTop Topham: Guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRick Hayward: 2nd Guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMartin Dunsford: Bass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChris Harding: Drums.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFleetwood Mac:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTracks 5-9 Studio\/Live - 1970\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristine McVie Perfect: Vocals\/Piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDanny Kirwan: Vocals,Guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJeremy Spencer: Vocal,Guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJohn McVie: Bass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMick Fleetwood: Drums.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTracks 10-16 Live In Concert 1970\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristine McVie Perfect: Vocals\/Piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDanny Kirwan: Vocals,Guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJeremy Spencer: Vocal,Guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJohn McVie: Bass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMick Fleetwood: Drums.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrazy About You (Can't Hold Out Much Longer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Down at the Crown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Tell Me All the Things You Do\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Station Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Purple Dancer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Station Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Crazy About You (Can't Hold Out Much Longer)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e One Together\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I Can't Stop Loving Her\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lonely Without You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Tell Me All the Things You Do\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jewel-Eyed Judy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Hey Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e It's You I Miss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Gone Into the Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Tell Me You Need Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Madison Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Purple Dance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Open the Door\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Preaching Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Dust My Broom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Get Like You Used to Be\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Don't Go Please Stay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Station Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I'm on My Way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jailhouse Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The King Speaks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Teenage Darlin'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Honey Hush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50522451443986,"sku":"5036436131129","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/fleetwood-mac-madison-blues-cd","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
