This LP showcases live sets from Oslo and The Hague recorded for Norwegian and Dutch TV respectively. Of the eleven tracks, seven were never recorded on a Fleetwood Mac studio LP. They range from Danny Kirwan’s mournful One Sided Love through to an ebullient Tallahassee Lassie. The final track is a lengthy Rattlesnake Shake which, as Mick Fleetwood explains in the sleeve notes, indicates the more improvisational approach the band would adopt. This LP captures the band as they evolve from a straight blues band towards something more innovative. Despite careful remastering, the tracks from The Hague tend towards the trebly; the Oslo tracks are of better quality but are not soundboard recordings.
All tracks recorded at Congresgebouw, The Hague on 28.02.69 for Dutch TV, except side two tracks 3-6 recorded at Njardhallet, Oslo on 03.11.69.
